Schedule big ticket item sales presentations and potentially long demonstrations for the end of the day. This allows you to take all the time you need to make the sale without worrying about your next stop. You will be relaxed and on your game, and the customer will not feel rushed to make a decision. When a customer feels rushed the answer is very often, “No."
