PERPLEXED.
There is no question that you could
learn to close sales. and a course in
craftsmanship would give you the theory
of doing this.
1t is really not difficult, and the in
ability to close n sale is usually self
fear. The salesman hcsitates to boldly
take the order-hc fears that if he asks
TOR it the customer may say NO. so
he beats around the bush, as it were.
The good closer does not ask if he
may send some goods" but asks the
customer how many he can send, or
what size he wants.
There are several good courses in
craftsmanship in Philadelphia. l can
not recommend one more than another.
In choosing a school look for one which
uses a good text book, and which has
an instructor who has had practical
selling experience.
! | do not think that a technical edu-
cation is necessary to sell steel forgings,
but, of course, the salesman must have
good working knowledge of it. If you
write to the editor of the Iron Age,
230 West Thirty ninth street, New
York city, he will be able to answer
this question better than /.
I've mailed you the names of some
good books on salesmanship and one or
two trade journals dealing with the
bond business. The editors of these
journals can give you the names of
books.
