Nothing else matters other than making a sale (provided you don't piss off the customer).  The last thing a weasel wants is some other person that is not part of the conversation to get involved from the sidelines. A good sales weasel will find a way to include that new person in a positive way, even if they have differing opinions on what they were pitching the customer. With a little luck and a lot of skill, he might make a sale to both.Bad sales weasels will continue an argument with the other person, confusing or irritating the customer.You push what is most profitable on a target you've identified as interested. If they aren't interested, you don't keep pushing, you find what they do want and sell the stuffing out of that.</blockquote>
