Trust has to be earned.........

Dear Mr. Foo,
U are a pretty seasoned salesman. I dont deny trust is possible. By a rule of thumb, only 5-10% of people today in the sales trade make up the trustworthy kind. Others are only for max gains. So if one buys on trust alone, he enters into a high risk contract, automatically. I have known very senior people who sells, and they are still going for max gains at the expense of customers whom they have known for many years! When money comes easy, they go easily too, making people become its perpetual slave. And integrity is not part of his equation. So, to whom it may concern out there, never use trust alone if you want a good value deal. A lesson learnt through life's journeys. - July 23, 2012 at 12:42 AM

... If I may add. Many people build trust initially, and when trust is achieved, he will make his move and breach that trust and gained handsomely. 'Trust are made to be broken' is a real saying becoming more rampant in today's world. It is a once noble value almost extinct.

Hi 12:42
This is a special platform where I'm trying to encourage all salespeople to be honest and sincere in their selling. So that they could earn their trust gradually. You had commented at the right place. Your suggestions should be forwarded to the consumer news media for broader knowing. You are right in every way. - July 23, 2012 at 9:10 AM

I m sorry Mr Foo if my comments are in this wrong place. Yes the consumer assoc is a better place. But really I guess a good piece of information is certainly good to be in any place where sharing and learning takes place. To be a more informed society. But if you think this is a wrong place, please accept my apologies.

Hi my dear anonymous,
My senses were correct... You are a brave lady who could speak your mind. Yes! What you had spoken were totally right. I'm also another consumer who needs to buy from someone else products. I know and understand everyone of them.
If you could had read more of my blog and many other posts, you might notice that I'm here to encourage and advise people to do well... Definitely not the opposite. When I was young, I was rejected and thrown out by many buyers by my mistakes, I almost gave up selling. Perhaps by the Grace of God, I'm still here talking to you. Is always good to give positive advices, motivate and inspire... so that someone could survive. Not discourage!
My dear... The choices are yours. - July 24, 2012 at 8:57 AM

My Dear She,
I only wish if you could have commented lighter and not discouraging the salespeople to earn their trust while striving to do well in their challenging career.
In everything we do, there is always the good and the bad part of it. I always try to see the good.
In diversity, it's about the understanding of each other and moving beyond simple tolerance.
In heart, I certainly are glad you take the trouble to read and to share your comments. Be softer in your criticism and be greater in appreciation.
Not forgetting I'm not a writer but merely a salesman who wishes to educate my fellow colleagues. So that they won't be looked down upon by society.
Thank you for reading my blog again. - July 24, 2012 at 11:34 PM
