Teacher Chen, I have a question. It's just that I've been a salesperson for a while, and about being sure, being able to say what a potential customer is like, now I can handle that with a bit of effort. However, the biggest problem that I've encountered is this: usually I'd say that I can judge a customer - he has purchasing power and he has the need, but they could... for example... they're still hesitant, but it's really hard to tell what they are hesitant about. For some people it could be because of price or something. Do you have any way to be able to tell in the shortest amount of time... to resolve this kind of situation?
