Sales Training that SELLS

If ever there was a great example of how to close a deal on the phone, it must be Chris Varick, Vin Diesel’s character in the movie “Boiler Room”. The particular scene I am thinking of shows Varick coaching his sales team on how to sell options to an unsuspecting doctor using every 'schmooze' closing technique in the book. It truly is a master class in closing and his “students” are left completely overwhelmed at his powers of persuasion.  Of course, the only problem is that (without completely spoiling the movie if you havent seen it) the company is a scam, the products don’t actually exist, and any clients who are suckered in are eventually left high and dry.
