* Check-out our new tubes!
One day last week I dodged a bullet. However, I returned to my desk and found a flier with two tubes taped to it and the catchy phrase “Check-out our new tubes!” scrawled across the page. I missed the rep but not the chance to “check-out his new tubes”. Okay, if you want me to try your new tubes give me a bag full. I guess he thought he was being generous since he gave me two (sample AND a balance!!).
“Our new tubes”………..I know this company isn’t making diddley-squat. LIke everyone else they buy then resell. So, what was so special about those new “precision manufactured” tubes? Nothing.
I’m not mentioning names because I don’t want a google search dragging him back to the lab any sooner than next quarters sales push to meet his sales goal/quota.
