Sales Tip: Don't do a demo, leave a demo

Rather than taking precious time in your day to demo a product, let customers try it out and decide for themselves.

Live demos take time. And as a salesperson, your time is money. Besides, the average customer will only remember a small percentage of what you said once your demo is over. 

A better approach may be to lend out your demo unit to a different shop every week. Once a customer experiences the tool in his or her shop on a day-to-day basis, he or she will more likely see the benefits. Just be sure to provide the manufacturer's support number to address any questions.
