I also lose patience going through multiple posts that contain only a sentence or so.

there is not really any sales-faith info to learn from. Learning about sales-faith could help people.

When the wife accepted the appt she was drunk and she knew it would make her husband mad. I have no more details. That's the scenario.

No, not a plastic surgeon Lou. I think my posterior will survive just fine.
I do however see my pdoc monday, which might be a good thing.

Friends,
In sales, we must overcome the fear of what others will think of you. the people in your office or workplace are driven by the world's methods. The office usually has a "salesperson of the month" award, or a board with how many sales you made for the month. The world method uses competition to "motivate" the sales staff. So you have to overcome this type of fear. The fear of being less than others in number of sales. It is the fear of humiliation.

I do think Phil's idea of using an example to illustrate the point was a good one, and usually very helpful to me when I'm trying to understand something as it puts it in context.
So how about this scenario.
You are a copier seller for a newish local company. It is your job to call various businesses from, oh I don't know enough about where this information can be obtained, say, the telephone book. You want to sell them a copier, not necessarily the most expensive one, because the main money really comes from the service contract. So you are allowed to sell them the copier that really does best fit their needs.
There's the scenario.

Dinah,
What you a describing is the way to do what a salesperson does. Prospecting, demonstrating, etc. etc.. Now all of that will come later. what I am attempting to tell, is a way to not be a part of the world's system of sales. I believe that the world's system is corrupt. I want to tell of another system completly, not as that world does.

Dinah,
The world's sales system is based on greed and fear. When I was in The City of Peace, the Rider said to me, "Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world-the lust of the flesh, the the lust of he eyes, and the prie of life-is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever."

That's why I tried to make it clear that the salesman was also allowed to honestly do his best for the customer.
But it is your story, and I don't want to interfere with your way of telling it. It may just be me, but I sometimes get lost without grounding. And examples are excellent grounding tools for me. And I am trying to follow your story of how to succeed in sales, although I probably will never be in sales. But it is interesting nevertheless.
