8 Reasons to Date a Salesman

Zac Frank

2. Every time you say no to a date, a salesman hears “YES!”

You’ve gone on a first date with a doctor and didn’t think he was right for you. He, on the other hand, thinks he was a hit and asks for a second date. Instead of saying no, you make up a semi-elaborate excuse as to why you can’t see him again. He takes the hint, realizing you’re not interested, and moves on.

Tell the same story to a salesman and he hears, “YES! I do want to go on another date, but I’m just a little unwilling to commit and need you to help me figure out why I should say yes!”

Simply say “no” to a second date and the salesman hears, “YES! I do want to go on another date, but I’m just a little unwilling to commit and need you to help me figure out why I should say yes!”

Say, “I never want to see you again. This was the worst date of my life.” The salesman hears, “YES! I do want to go on another date, but I’m just a little unwilling to commit and need you to help me figure out why I should say yes!”

With other guys, you’ve been wasting all that time and energy coming up with reasons you can’t go on another date. With a salesman, you never have that problem.

    Sales ladies have it all: We are smart, ambitious, relationship oriented and usually very attractive. Some of us are single and looking for a guy who can sell themselves to us. Enough said.

    This is very funny! I've been in sales all my career. These insights are perfect. I saw the comment about saleswomen being viewed as desperate stalkers if they behave this way. NOT BY ME! Where are you! LOL.

    Agreed this is really funny, but on a sad note if a saleswoman uses any of her sales tactics for dating she comes across like a desperate stalker type. Just an FYI.
