Why can't my customers be like that? LOL!

I guess a lot depends on your perspective. In my job (senior manager
in a tech company) I'm selling all day long, and not just customers.
Also industry analysts, my own team and my company's owners as well.
And customers have to be persuaded to stay with us, not just make the
initial purchase. So I guess to some extent I do lump all of daily
life in with selling ;-)
