customer like to talk with girls,especially beautiful girls,
so many girls is enjoyed in many companies.
but in reality .boys are not bad at all,
Quoting from [stockguy35]:Quoting from [szhktg]: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.

Sex aside...here is how I would rank a "good" sales person1) Knowledge of English (if you can't communciate, how can you sell?)
2) Industry knowledge (if you don't know your industry, how can you stay ahead of trends?)
3) Product knowledge...some of my products have been quite technical, and have required sophisticated manufacturing processes. I was always disappointed when I knew more about my suppliers manufacturing processes than they did.
4) Hygiene - Make sure you don't STINK! My gosh I've been in some meetings where my contact (sorry mostly boys) have had terrible breath and must not have taken a shower in days. So boys, pay attention...brush your teeth, change your clothes and take a shower. How do you have a close cooperation when you can't stand to be around that person.
5) Then we do get to gender and while I have no particular preference, if I had all of the above in a boy or a girl, I'd prefer to do business with a girl first and a guy second.
Just my thoughts,
Tim
Hmm. Boys should work harder and try best to sell products as well as themselves.
I enjoy all above. best regards.
Quoting from [Freddie]:
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?I am a girl, but i think boys are good at sales . Bcs boys have many their special characteristic that girls do not have ! They do what they want , faster and more accurate than girl !
At most case, i do not like to deal with girls. hehe !!!
However, at our company, almost all of the sales are girls, only one boy !
What a pity !
Quoting from [Admin]:Though i want to vote for girl, but in reallity, there are many boys are good sellers.
