In many trading organizations there is a term such as "Tutorial". The essence of it is that a more experienced manager introduces a newbie into the course of business. It tells him about the characteristics of goods, prices, discounts. It shows how to correctly make a commercial offer, communicate with the customer, etc.
Here and on one firm, let’s call it “Roof materials for those who risk buying them” (a joke), worked as a sales manager Roman. His time at this place was about a year. Therefore, he was appointed as a mentor for a newcomer, who was called Kostia.
And their director, Alexander, came to them from another company. And, as they say, they started introducing all kinds of innovations.
He was especially concerned about the dress code. I was always in a costume. And soon began to demand this from sales managers. Those objected, as in meetings with the client on "objects", where dirt, dust and other adverse factors - such a "paphos" was not quite appropriate, but since the director was very attentive, then in the office soon some of them began to wear costumes.
And here one day, Costa and his mentor Rome had to go to the client to measure the roof. He warned the director about it. In the morning we went to a meeting.
The client showed them a house, on the roof of which was filled with a carpet. The three climbed to the roof and began to measure.
Suddenly the phone of Rome ringed.
The voice of the director: Roma hello. Where are you?
Rome: Now on the roof, with the client.
Do you have bones in costumes?
Roma barely withstood not to matuck, but polently replied, “Yes. We have butterflies instead of cravates.
Director Sasha, without understanding the irony, says: "And you ask the client: is it important for him that the manager is in a suit when he meets him?
Roma, without putting the pipe, asks the client: - Vladimir, our director is interested in your opinion. Does it matter if the manager is dressed or not?
Vladimir stumbles, his foot slips on the board. He holds balance, matters and screams:
I think he’s going to h... with such questions! Come in swimsuits and swimsuits! Just give quality materials and good prices!
“Alexander, I hope you heard his answer.
After that, the dress code was slowly forgotten.
