Salesman Didn't
.Redlize
His Own Ability

Vic O'Neal, a salesman of
household appliances out Of
Knoxville, has ALWAYS felt he
was a good salesman. Any sales
man has to feel he's a good
salesman to be able to sell. But
Vic never knew just how good
he was until one day this week.
He demonstrated an electric
powered rug cleaner to a La
Toilette housewife. He attached
one gadget after another to the
thing-moth killer, mosquito
sprayer, floor-polisher and so
on. And all the time he kept
his chatter going. A sample of
his spiel:
"Cleans the air, dries your
hair, and makes you feel like
a millionaire"
After so long the lady showed
a buying interest, and not just
curiousity. Being a good sales
man, Vic had been waiting for
this.
He told her, and kept right on
telling what a dandy machine
it was, and what all it could do,
and how many who had the
machine wouldn't take $1,000
and do without it.
"It is worth $1,000" he repeat
ed. Worth $1,000 to any wife
with a house to clean. You
won't take $1,000 for it after
you've used it awhile" he said.
his eyes shining, and big gobs
of sweat rolling down his face,
He was working and talking
just that hard.
"But," the housewife said, 81
have an old cleaner" and she
went to a closet and brought
it out to show. How much dc
you think it is worth on youl
machine?" she asked.
ct is worth go cents" he tolo
her, and then jumped right
back into his sales talk, and al
the time kept attaching gadgets
to run over her rug, or furni.
ture, or to spray the air, or tt
polish the floor, and throwing
into his spiel about how many
who'd used the machine would.
MT do without it for $1,000. Anc
at last the woman said she
would take the machine.
"How much" she asked again
"did you say you'd allow me fol-
my old machine?"
Again he told her-about 81
cents and a penny sales tax.
She sat at her desk. Got hel
check book. She said: "Thi
sure is pulling nv bank balance
down, but I need 1t and I be-
lieve it is worth every cent o.
the money"
Thank you, Mrs. -. :" smiled
