A young, well qualified Officer left the job in Lagos and emigrated to Canada for better prospects and applied for a salesman's job at Vancouver's premier downtown department store. It was the biggest store in the world: you could get anything there.

The boss asked him, "Have you ever been a salesman before?"

"Yes sir, I was a salesman in Nigeria

The boss liked him and said, "You can start tomorrow. Learn fast and do well.
"
The first working day was long and arduous for the young man, but he got through it.

Finally 6 pm came around. The boss duly fronted up and asked, "How many sales did you make today?"

"Sir, I made ONE sale!" said the young salesman rather happily.

"Only one sale?!" shot back the boss. "No! No! You see, most of my staff make 20 or 30 sales a day.

If you want to keep this job, you'd better be doing better than just one sale.
By the way, how much was your sale worth?"

"$933,005.00", said the man.

"What?! How did you manage that?" asked the flabbergasted boss.

"Well," said the salesman, "this man came in and I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium hook and finally a really large hook.

Then I sold him a good fishing rod and some fishing gear.

Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast.

So I told him he'd be needing a boat, so I took him down to the boat department and sold him that 20-foot schooner with the twin engines.

Then he said his Volkswagen wouldn't be able to carry it, so I took him to our automotive department and sold him that new Deluxe 4X4 Blazer.

I then asked him where he'll be staying and since he had not decided, I took him to camping department and sold him a six-sleeper camper tent.

Then he said I should throw in about $200 worth of groceries and two cases of juice."

The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment, "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook?!"

"No, sir," answered the young man, "he came in to buy sanitary napkins for his wife and I convinced him that since he will be bored with his wife being in period - fishing is the best remedy for boredom."

Boss: "Where did you acquiree this professional training?!"
"Onitsha main market in Anambra sir."

Story is fake jor. Here is the real story....


I am sure many of you would have come across this, but still its worth reading. Though the story looks not real, but still gives an idea for cross-selling.

A keen indian state bank manager, left the job and applied for a sales man job at london's premier downtown department store. In fact which was the biggest store in the world - You could get anything there.

The boss asked him "Have you ever been an salesman before? Yes Sir, I was a saleman in India replied the lad. The Boss liked the cut of him and said, you can start tomorrow and I'll come and see you.

The day was long and arduous for the young man, but he got through it.

And finally 6.00 PM came around.

The boss duly fronted up and asked, How many sales did you make today?

Sir, Just ONE Sale, said the young salesman. "Only one sale" blurted the boss.

No, No you see here, most of them my staff make 20 or 30 sales a day. If you want to keep this job you'd better be doing better than just one sale.

By the say, how much was the sales worth? asked the boss.

9,33,00,534 pounds said the sales man.

What? How did you manage that? asked the flabbergasted boss.

"Well" said the salesman. This man came in and I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium hook and finally a really large hook. Then I sell him new fishing rod and some fishing gear.

Then I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast.

So I told him, he'd be needing a boat, so I took him down to the boat department and sold him that twenty-foot schooner with the twin engines.

The he said his volkswagen probably wouldn't be able to pull it. So I took him to our automotive department and sold him that new deluxe 4X4 blazer.

I then asked him where he'll be staying, and since he had not decided, I took him to camping department and sold him one of those new igloo 6-sleeper camper tents.

Then the guy said, while we're at it, I should throw in about $100 worth of groceries and two cases of beer.

The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment, "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook!"

"No" answered the salesman. "He came in to buy a head ache relief tablet and I convinced him that fishing is best remedy for headache."

Boss - "You take my chair".

4: .... "No, sir," answered the young man, "he came in to buy sanitary napkins for his wife and I convinced him that since he will be bored with his wife being in period - fishing is the best remedy for boredom."

Boss: "Where did you acquiree this professional training?!"
"Onitsha main market in Anambra sir."
