Buying existing domains and real sales techniques

Many of you will know that i have a background in professional sales for 15 years or so but its very rare that you come across traditional sales techniques used online. I made an enquiry with a company over a domain I would like to buy and they came back with the usual pointless high figure.

Then today I have had 3 phonecalls from their sales staff - proper telesales calls - open questions - closing techniques anything they could do to move me through the sales process or to try to close on related products.

None of us do that as we should in my opinion.

    Interesting

    Before I got into SEO I worked for a bit at a leading charity fundraising firm - they where very big on call mangement and controling the call.

    Maybe I ought to get my notes out and use some of the techniques at the next trade show I go to.
