Developing Credibility During the Sales Call

To develop a close and harmonious relationship, the salesperson must be perceived as having credibility. A salesperson can take many actions during a sales call to develop such a perception. 

Think for a moment about trying to secure a sales job. Assume you are going to have an interview with a district manager with a consumer products firm next week for a sales position. 

In 250 – 300 words, describe what you can do to develop rapport and build credibility with the district manager.
