[@yetib8642]

7:50 This hurts me so much as a salesman, it's sales 101 to never "one up" your potential client, nor oversell your company. If you were to take someone out on a date, you wouldn't sit there and talk about yourself and how awesome you are the entire time. Michael shows this perfectly by underselling himself with the story about his stepdad and maintaining a cool disposition, relaxed body position and calm, composed speech. Where as Andy begins to "brag" about his own fishing experience, which as you can see immediately switches the client off when he mentions killing it with a rifle, and the NY Stock Exchange.

My head canon is that Michael was actually an amazing salesman and very smart person, then got moved up to manager and got obsessed with being popular and making stupid jokes since he wanted all of the employees to like him. It's well evidenced by when he's driving home from the sales pitch with that dude. You'd think by knowing his character that he would say "what a jerk" like Andy did, but this is sales, Michael knows how to do this, so, in comfort, he says "yes".

I agree with you, plus there are also scenes of Michael just doing his job normally in some scenes. Also the time he gets the special paper products that were exclusive to staples in the one episode with him, Dwight, josh and Jim at the one conference.

[@mattday7337]

He's obviously based on David Brent and I've always taken it to be implied that David before the camera crew showed up was a very good boss and just got on with his job. This is evidenced by the fact that 5/7 of the chair persons vote in his favour for the job at the end of series 1. I think this trait was then carried over to Michael who acts up to the cameras but is in fact a very good boss who does good work

[@C00LGuy47]

Remember for how little Dunder Mifflin employee’s *actually* work, it still ended up as the most profitable branch, kinda makes you wonder how all the other branch’s operate….

[@Swiftbow]

A lot the reason for their profitability stemmed from the merger with the Stamford Branch. They picked up all the clients and also lost ALL the staff from the merger. So twice the clients with half the payroll. Further branch closures also benefited them, mostly because they were already seen as the most profitable branch. It also helped that Michael had the lowest paycheck of all the branch managers (most likely), which affected the raises of everyone else. His managing style of mostly doing nothing is also very productive when most of your employees are capable of being adults. (Which Jim points out during the period when they had no manager at all.)

[@Pretty_Mess]

The other branch employees were probably all a bunch of Andy’s. 😂

[@mechengr1731]

@@Swiftbow well, it should also be noted that most of the sales team were good at the long sales and out of the box thinking. Michael might have been goofing off from the outside during pretzel day, but he was actually securing a massive sale. Phyllis took Karen to the beauty salon to relate to the customer they were pitching to. Stanley clearly had a prior relationship to the deacon, and probably secured the sale off screen later. We see the goofy moments, but they did seem to be competent at selling paper. Printers were debatable

[@giantWario]

Because micromanaging your employee actually tend to be harmful. Michael knows his employees are competent (except Kevin and Creed) so all he really has to do is keep morale high and let people do their thing.

Stanley was gonna be a good mentor in that scene with Ryan as Stanley was actually gonna listen to his pitch as you notice he isn’t looking at the crossword puzzle like he said he was gonna do. I know Ryan asked him if “he could take the lead on this sale” but still Stanley giving attention to anyone is HUGE even if he thought it was laughable. Now that I think about it he might’ve used the cross word puzzle as an excuse to maybe not make Ryan feel nervous by eyeballing him either way he crashed and burned

Michael is a questionable boss but an extraordinary salesman

[@SagarLakshmipathy]

7:39 Dwight’s happiness and appreciation for Michael “You’re the master”. Wholesome!

[@sis201]

I love how good Michael at his job when he actually does it

[@AniList2021]

Michael is such a beast in sales. Imagine when he's still a manager he is good with his words and service despite his lack of focus at work most of the time. Such an amazing guy!

I want a compilation of all of Pam’s rant at the camera. They are hilarious.

Michael does work he was the best salesman of his that's why he become regional manager at Scranton branch is best branch and they sell the highest paper

[@redthroatedloon]

when dwight tries to sell to jim, it never goes well. but when they’re on the same side for once, they make one hell of a team

[@sho676]

Jim's face while saying " how dare you " always cracks me up 6:09

[@bentleyboy72]

The first clip isn't exactly fair, because the entire point of the episode is that while Michael was "goofing off," he was actually in the process of making a huge sale.

[@gautamdeshmukh945]

seeing what a god tier team dwight and jim are makes me happy

[@samriddhivarshney6547]

[@maguireentertainment4484]

add the word "son" to any sentence and you'll sound like an old man

[@iminumst7827]

I think one thing this office shows well is that when you have a work team filled with experienced people, especially when those people are like the sales team and earn based on how hard they work, they really don't need much management at all to do a good job. They just need someone to pay them, otherwise, they function almost seamlessly without a boss. Managers are great for complicated projects and getting new teams working together, but a well acquainted and experienced team is very self-sufficient. The only truly bad management was keeping Kevin, Creed, and Toby on payroll, they really didn't do their jobs right.

[@IsaacBelll]

Toby? What do you mean he didn't do his job?

[@iminumst7827]

@@IsaacBelll Toby is HR, his responsibilities are staffing, compensation management, and solving workplace disputes. The Scranton Office is small and a declining business, so they never have to worry about hiring and training new staff. So let's look at compensation. We learn in the episode where Daryl demands a raise that Michael is severly underpaid for his work, and he's never gotten a raise. Furthermore, Toby does not look into Corporates attempts to slash the workers union in the warehouse. On top of that, compensation includes health care benefits, and Toby does not intervene and stop Dwight when Dwight decided to slash everyone's healthcare completely. What about workplace disputes? Toby is just too non-confrontational to resolve issues, the most effort he puts in is telling Micheal something is inappropriate, Michael tells him to shut up and Toby lets the inappropriate action continue instead of taking it up with higher authority. Toby for example let the fight between Andy and Dwight take place. Also when Oscar had his outburst and people were trying to invade his privacy, Toby refused to protect Oscar's privacy because Toby was too interested in Oscar's secret. In the webisode Toby also accepted blackmail from Creed that gave Creed immunity to blackmail the rest of the office. Not to mention how Toby never takes employee complaints seriously. Everytime Dwight goes to Toby about Jim's pranks, Dwight doesn't file the complaint and just throws it in big boxes in the warehouse. When Jim and Pam went to Toby to get their relationship reported to HR, Toby refused because he was jealous over Pam. The only times in the show he ever does his job properly, was when he did seminars on safety. Toby even admits that he doesn't have any passion for HR, he just did it because it was a fast job he could land.

[@PyroSpecter]

This is missing the episode where Andy promises that he gets a tattoo if everyone in the office works harder

"OSCAR, YOUR MOM" 🤣 gets me every time

I don’t see how anyone could not love this show 😂

[@kingdedede7484]

Unfortunately, I know a people who think it’s “stupid”. Personally, I think it’s cause The Office’s humor isn’t like basic sit com humor or uses a laugh track and some people NEED to be outright told when to laugh.

@N Diesal S7 I disagree with. Wasn’t perfect, but gave us moments like “Threat Level Midnight”, Dwight’s Snowball Prank, Michael’s sad goodbye, and more. 8-9 I agree in saying they weren’t good.

10:01 - Jim is trying so hard not to laugh, that is a tight lip laugh stifle

[@ReMattch]

The fact that Jim didn't flinch at all while Dwight called on the phone is great character subversion, it's like a hint that Jim is part of this sales pitch because he's acting unbothered and continues talking.

[@maniacworld123]

5:28 one of my most favorite scenes out of many most favorite scenes of this show . the sales drill. love it how many times I watch

[@michaeloverton04]

That trick Dwight and Jim pulled with customer was actually genius. Have to respect ingenuity like that.

[@COMMANDandConquer199]

Dwight getting excited over Michael's fake sale to Jim always gets me.

[@000xyz]

I love how right outside the client's building, dwight and jim were pretty much at war...but once the come inside...despite being ultimate arch enemies were in such perfect sync that they were able to make a great tactical sale without having to communicate to each other what the tactic is. Dwight made the call to the competator, and jim straight up knew the play to such perfection that he was able to have a natural conversation with the client the whole time and have it perfectly timed to the automated message when he asked about customer service representation. He had to know the intervals in advance. Issues with andy's tactic. Michael read the environment to get to know the client intimately and build a conversational relationship--a strong intermediate sales strategy. Using his gathered intel, he flatters the client by making himself look weaker at a hobby or interest--a basic yet effective sales tactic that compliments the aforementioned strategy. But then andy ruins the play by trying to flex. Never try to outflex your client at their own hobbies. You could do a small flex on a tangental hobby like "you like the lakers? I am an LA kings guy myself" but never go straight into "i actually got to hang out with kobe back when he was alive". You are not trying to impress your client--you are trying to service them. You can flex how well you are able to provide the service, but you do not outflex the client.

[@eliasabi-elias8501]

1:37 diplomacy personified

[@cranjismcbasketball2565]

Dwight using the fact that it takes Kevin time to answer a phone and Jim using Kelly's chatterbox nature proves that they are while they argue, they are a great team when it comes to sales.
