When he arrived at the model apartment, he was met by an beautiful woman who introduced herself as Elaine Jones. He was invited to sit down. Gary sat down, took out his briefcase while secretly admiring her sensuous figure. "Well, Gary, we are ready to make a decision on our new heating system within two weeks. You are a bit late, but let's hear what you have to offer", Elaine stated. As Gary began his presentation he felt Elaine's eyes drilling through him with a piercing look. Gary began to feel a bit uncomfortable as this lovely woman scrutinized him, but he continued his presentation. When he had finished, Elaine said "your presentation sounds good, Gary, but we are looking for more than just purchasing a heating system. We want to feel as though the salesperson that sells us the system comes with it and will give us good service. How do I know that you will give us that service"? Gary answered Elaine, assuring her that the service and installation would be more than satisfactory. "Well, Gary", Elaine continued, "we just have to have the feeling that our salesperson is personally interested in making sure we are pleased". Elaine had a slight smile on her face, with her last comment. "Okay", thought Gary, "She want's something extra, I guess I'll have to find out what she wants and do it". Gary continued saying, "Elaine, I can assure you my interest in personally satisfying my customers is paramount. Whatever assurances or any other actions you need from me I will be glad to provide". "Well, Gary,", said Elaine, I am delighted to hear you say that", said Elaine. "In fact there is something you can do to assure me of your good intentions. Meet me back here at Five, and we'll have cocktails and discuss it further". "Great", replied Gary, "see you then". Elaine then rose and escorted Gary out. For the rest of the day, Gary continued his work, but he was somewhat excited at the possibility of not only closing a big deal, but also having cocktails with a beautiful woman. Gary returned at five. As he entered Elaine's apartment, Elaine asked Gary to mix drinks while she went to change into "something more comfortable". |
