If I learned one thing in sales, it was that it doesn't matter if you push something or you try to sell something to someone that they can't really afford or need, as long as you come off as a sincere person with your clients best needs at heart. It works even better if the product you're selling is actually a quality item that you feel confidently about but that feeling of trust is stronger than anything.

when i started sales years ago, my mentor told me: "you are going to sell emotions, and the sale of the product follows automatically."
