Wal-Mart Training

The manager at Wal-Mart is trying to teach a new employee about "up sales". "The trick," he explains, "is to sell the customer more than what he came in for. Watch how I do it with this next customer." A man approaches the manager and the trainee and asks politely if they carry grass seed. "We sure do", the manager replies. "And how about a lawnmower?" "Lawnmowers?" the customers says. "I just want to buy grass seed." "Sure", the manager replies. "But soon you'll have a beautiful new lawn and you'll need to cut it and you'll have to come back and make a special trip. We've got lawnmowers on sale today and you'll save time and money buying today." The customer agrees and buys the lawnmower as well as the seed. "You see," the manager says to the trainee. "That's how you do it. Now you try with the next customer." The next man to appear asks the trainee where Tampons are stocked. The trainee says brightly, "Tampons are on aisle 12. And how about a lawnmower?" "A lawnmower?" the man asks. "I just came in for Tampons. Why would I want a lawnmower?" "Well," the trainee replies, "I figure your weekend is shot, why not mow the lawn?"
