Girl Scouts and Cookies.
Someone tried that over here..... we are the Girl Scouts, we are selling cookies, how many do you want?...
They offensive remarks they got back were deserved.
Would you like to buy some is a lot better than assuming they will buy some, making it seam like you have no choice by asking how many you want and then trying to upsell by "You cant have just one, you have to have six minimum" is bloody rude and offensive in the first place when you are door knocking to sell something not wanted.
Sending out pre-teen girls to door knock in some areas is bloody dangerous.
Setting sales quotas and targets is just wrong.
Knowing that the makers of the cookies are making profit by this is double wrong.
Tum, where as its part of your culture to sell these and so be it I have no way to event think I can be an influence, so dont take it the wrong way and think I am against what you do, but whoever it is to start introducing American ways into England, YOU take note here, we are NOT America.
We do things different.
And we dont door knock cookie sales by unpaid pre-teen Girls in this country.
Oh and by the way, 25% minimum upjar on any goods you have to handle.... thats the first order of business...
If I ran my Pub on 18.75% I would loose profits.
You have overheads?... they need paid.
