Salesman
The manager liked his attitude and decided to give the guy a try. At the
close of business the next day, the sales manager goes to check on his new
salesman. He asks, "How many sales did you have today?" The salesman answers,
"One." "How come only one," asks the manager. "Most of my salesman have 20-30
per day! How much was the one sale you made?"
The salesman answers, "$333,344.00" "WHAT!?! What did you sell?" "Well,
a guy wanted a small fishing hook, so I sold him a medium fishing hook, then I sold
him a large fishing hook.
Then he needed a rod, so I sold him a light action rod, the upgrade to
a medium action rod, and then changed it to a fully balanced combo. Then I told him
he was going to need a boat, so I took him to the boating depar tment and sold him
a 14-foot motorboat, then upgraded him to a 20-foot cabin cruiser. Then I told him
that his Volkswagen wouldn't be able to tow the boat, so I took him to the car
department and sold him a sport utility vehicle."
" guy came in for a fishing hook and you managed to sell him all of that?" asked the
manager. "No, he came in for a box of tampons, and I said 'Hell, your
weekend is shot anyway, why not do some fishing?' "
