[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3667456, member: 13337"] Years back when I went to a sales school,,, We were taught that the only "no" answer we couldn't "rebut" was an "unqualified no". No thank you,,, I appreciate your courtesy but would like to add one more point. No, maybe later,,, When would be a good time for us to meet again? The list could go on and on,,, We were given a list of 25 qualified no answers,,, And at least two powerful rebuttals each to reopen the sales pitch. [SIZE=5][B]No.[/B][/SIZE] Just a plain unqualified no. Nothing can be legitimately said after that,,, I rarely ever have to repeat myself. We have been conditioned by society to be polite,,, I call it conditioning to be prey for people who truly have no scruples. Being firm in your answer is not being impolite,,, It's not letting a truly impolite individual take advantage of you. Aarond P.S. I used to be an easy sale until I attended that sales school,,, I learned how to effectively say no to a sales pitch,,, And that commissioned salesmen are evil. . [/QUOTE]
