In the car showroom, where I did buy my car, I observed the techniques of other sales man, and none of them were at all pushy with any of the potential customers.
By the way what do you sell?

Ive sold lots of different things. Ive worked at Lookers and Perrys in Blackburn, but currently i work for a software development company. Going back to your point about pushy salesman, i agree it does come off that way at times (Bullied). One of the main points i would make myself is that the first garage you went into, from my experience, didnt do his/her job. To just give you a brochure and a little information is not selling, you could train a monkey to be nice. I do agree though that even when i go anywhere and get hassled buy sales, i personally dont like it, which in some way makes me a hypocrite, but if they just give me information and let me go, i know for a fact i wouldn't go back there on principle that sales isn't an easy job and i wouldnt be happy to give them commision in the numbers game that they are playing. I personally would rather put food on someones table that is trying to maximise every opportunity.
