the gold comment was teasing chris and selling rings to women. personally i think old coins are fascinating no matter what they are made outa.

btw, you all are so funny, it just cracks me up! :o)

let me define "good" for you (as defined by me since Im the OP and I can do that): GOOD: means you close 80% of your sales. That is better than average - its good. So on a scale of poor - average - good...Im wondering about the good.

btw, now you know what i really think good means, so if i ever told you it was a "good" shot that was me giving you highest kudos you could get from a Holly. :o)

I think males have a leg up on females regarding high pressure sales.
We started at puberty learning how to sell ourselves as nice guys who just wanted to touch her breasts. Some were better salesmen than others, but the training started early and was all we could think about sometimes...

There arent maxi pad salesmen.
Not in the literal sense, but I'm in advertising so theoretically, if the product has something to offer, a good salesperson (ad person) should be able to tout those benefits. I think Tom nailed it pretty well in his first post.
