Missed One

Yesterday ... don't even want to talk about it.

This horrible woman from Canidae pet food did a demo at the same time I did!  Have no idea what the store owner was thinking.  Obviously she didn't care.

A customer would have MY BRAND of pet food in THEIR ARMS and she would go up to them and talk them out of it with her, "Just for today you can buy a 5 lb bag and get one free!"  I can't sell against that!!

She converted at least 2 customers over ... I know there were more.  Esp in the cat section where our brands are right next to each other.

I thought I was going to cry -- all the emotion was stuck in my throat and behind my eyes.

I need NB to let me offer deals like that.

I am going to complain -- LOUDLY -- to NB and see if I can offer some sort of "Here I am," "For today ONLY" deal.

I hate pushy people.  I sell by giving out information on our product and NOT putting other brands down.  I sell by the smile on my face.

Canidae stole that from me yesterday.
