abilities and your approach to selling
so if you can sell a pen to an
interviewer

majority of people
will start talking about the benefits of
the pen and how good the build quality
is do not do it
i would estimate 95 of candidates will
say something like
this is a great pen it is smooth and it
has a great feel
do not do that instead follow these tips
so let me now give you some important
tips for answering the sell me this pen
interview question with confidence so
the first tip is to use the following
three step process you can remember this
and then you can use
it when answering the sell me this pen
interview question
follow this three-step process number
one create demand
for the pen so to create demand you have
to
ask a number of questions i will tell
you the questions to ask in a second
number two you then move on to the sales
pitch so you will sell the pen
and then finish off and close the sale
it's really important to follow this
process
create demand for the pen sell the pen
and then close the sale so to create
demand for the pen you need to ask the
interviewer
a number of questions so you will start
off and ask the question how often
do you use a pen now they are going to
come back to you and they will say
i don't really use one that often to be
honest that's perfect when they come
back with that because you
then respond and you will say so you're
clearly a man of success
am i right in assuming you will
sometimes use a pen
to sign important sales or employment
contracts
because that's how you will use a pen to
sign things so they will then come back
and go yes
that's correct so you then respond and
you say and
by the way you've conducted this
interview today
and the professional manner in which
it's been run i assume
you are someone who likes things to be
done to a professional standard
is that correct they are only going to
come back and go yes
you could say that so now we move into
the sales pitch
here's what to say every time you sign a
sales contract it's a reminder
of how hard you have worked to get to
this point
every time you sign an employment
contract it's a sign that you have taken
the time to pick the right person for
the job
now of course you could use a standard
pen
that costs a few cents but surely a
person who has achieved so much in their
career
deserves to use a pen that symbolizes
their success
would you agree they're going to come
back and say well i can't really argue
with that yes
you now close the sale and here's what
to say
i want you to have this pen for 30 days
free of charge
try it use it and every time you sign a
sales contract
or an employment contract think of how
good it feels to use something
that is to the same quality and high
standard as the work that you
consistently deliver at the end of the
30-day trial i'm convinced you will want
to buy this pen
do we have a deal that is a simple yet
highly effective way
to sell anybody a pen so if you would
