A recent one Via the old e-mail train...
A teacher assigned her students, of a marketing class, a task of selling one thing over the weekend to demonstrated various sales techniques.
Monday morning comes and the students have to report.
First was Karla, she helped her little sister sell some Girl Scout cookies. She said, "I targeted my technique at the masses, we set up our display near the Walmart entrance and made 200.00 in the first day.
Second was Margerette, she went door to door selling magazines. She stated, " Well I described magazines to the customer based on their appearance, gender, and race. I made 500 dollars selling magazine and I only worked for an hour, this profiling technique is pretty good for sales.
Third was Charlie, he walked up to the class and opened up his bag. Out fell 5734.15 dollars in various forms of cash. Most of the class dropped their jaws and the teacher made a funny face towards Charlie as if he just committed a crime, " Charlie what the hell did you sell?"
"Toothbrushes." He calmly said back to her.
"I went downtown and set up stand on the busiest corner. I had a free chip and dip trial for anyone who walked by. The chips were ok but the guacamole was mixed up dogshit. After they realized it I offered toothbrushes at the cost of their wallets contents. I used the governments technique of selling you something shitty that they say tastes good, and then making you pay out the ass to get the shitty taste out of your mouth."
