1. When a salesperson says...

"I'm not trying to sell you anything."

- then spend the next 10 minutes trying to sell you something. 

2. When a buyer shares their biggest problems & the salesperson responds clinically with...

"Perfect" (...now I can sell to you)

3. When you've already decided you want to buy something and the salesperson insists on dragging you through their 40 minute sales funnel - with 116 questions fired at you in quick succession like an FBI interrogation. 

You don't buy. 

4. When a salesperson asks a leading question whilst simultaneously insulting your intelligence...

"Are you interested in making more money?"

"Can you service more clients?" 

"Would you like to save time?" 

5. When a salesperson connects with you on LinkedIn & says they're interested in 'collaborating'...turns out their definition of collaboration is: 

'I provide you with a service you don't need and you pay me lots of money'. 

Any more?
