Selling cannot yet properly be called a profession, but when the importance of training and experience for salesmen is recognized to the same extent that it is for doctors, accountants, or electricians, and when a satisfactory code of ethical practices in selling is developed, it may attain that status. This book explains the following topics related to selling: What is a salesman, appearance and its influence on successful selling, buying motives, canvassing for prospects, sales pre- approach, conduct in the sales approach, sales interview and presentation, handling objections, closing the sale, function of advertising, sales helps, sales tools and product displays.
