Best Salesman story....

Newfie fella applies for job at Bass pro... Manager asks if he has experience and newfie says I have some but just let me work today for free and judge for yourself afterwards....

At the end of the day he asks for how much the newfie had sold... the tally was over $100,000 for the day for the newfie...

The manager asked him how he did it... the newfie said the magic of upselling... Fella wanted a fishing rod so I asked him what he wanted to fish for the guy said trout so I sold him a fly fishing kit... then I asked him aif he planned to fish for pike and he said yes... so I sold him a heavier weight kit, then I asked him where he was planning on fishing and he said Pigeon lake, so i told him he needed a good boat so he bought a Tournament boat, then i told him he needed a Truck to tow the boaght so he brought a brand new truck as well...

The manager was dumfounded... he said, " you mean to tell me a fello came in for a fishing rod and you sold him all that."

The newfie says "yep that is not even the best part of the upsell... heactually came into the wrong store and was looking for "feminine hygiene products" for his wife and I said well since your weekend is shot.... Why don't you try fishing!...
