In some companies you can see that 80% of international sellers are girls and near 20% boys, Managers would like to have more girls employees than boys. 

I asked the reason from 25 managers in China and they answered that, Girls know English  much better than boys and they have more ability of selling! Also they believe the girl should be beautiful so come and start working!

What is the reason of  this difference?  What is your opinion?

actually you can do a survey, most girls can speak english very well. but some of boys who also can speak well. but not too much, and then the is another point is patience, and caution. you may know that when you do business ,especially in quotation. the girl will check it again and again, then send out, but boys seldom check the paper work

As I see it, compared with boys, girls have adequate  patience and carefulness to do the office work.

I think the boys are better then girls.

Because in Japan sellers are generally boys.

in some cases, girls alluring men buyers with sex. To give you some example,  the preferred sales are physically beautiful. if you are ugly, the number is gonna be different.  The sad reality is,  many married lonely rich man would buy "the smile" rather than the product, this happens mostly in a direct sales.      

hi!

from my own point, there are advantages and disadvantages for both girls and boys for sale.

lady first.

For girl, she may be more patient and more gentle than boys. These characters are greatly appreciated by customers.

Meanwhile, she is more careful and good at reading the customer's heart.

For boy, he can be more professional than girls.

And, he can suffer more pressure.

Moreover, as gender advantage, he can go anywhere at anytime as he likes.

Do you agree with me?

The women are blind to answer to the superior orders, are cheaper, are socially deeper, are prettier and are more humble. The men are the opposite.

For me its the same.Most important is the product information or to say whoever has better knowledge about the product he or she can be a better sales personnel.

Quoting from [danieldoderlein]:

Im from Scandinavia (Norway), and have imported several products from diferent Asian companies. I think Girls are better when it comes to sales from Asia to Europe and the US.

There are several factors that come into play, here I list a few:

1. European girls are used to a free and democratic system, thus a Girl is expected to be honest and true when she gives her opinion. When I get quotes and product information from a Girl, I believe her to be honest.

2. A man is often desperate in making a sale, a Girl might be just as desperate but they know how to be modest and be "hard to get", thus they can play a game with the customer not showing the desperate interest in selling. This in turn will make the buyer believe they have found the right supplyer as the sales person is not desperate on selling.

3. A girl can flirt and keep an unformal tone with a male buyer, and lats face it, if the true number for sales persons are 80% girls I would guess 80% of the buyers are male. Great match!

Thats some insight from a Norwegian buyer. I think male sales persons are just as good, as long as they are good salespersons. Persons just of the street or not suitable for sales will always fail, honesty and quality is the only thing that counts, so good luck whatever gender you are.

You are so right.
I am sad.
I am a sales and I am a male.
So this left me no choice. I can not do business successfully with you guys ( when I say you , I mean all buyers) because I am not able to flurt with those 80% unless this 80% involves some gays, and for god's sake i am absolutely a straight guy. So if I do not want starve to death, the only thing I can do is to start to flurt with the rest 20% .

....
Any pretty female buyer arounds here?

Quoting from [Katherine Cao]:

A girl plus a boy is the best selling pattern, eg. Insurance company.

neither excellent EN or nice face is the character of girls and boys.

boy's better , cos most of them are ambitious.
