alls to see what they wanted or to book them.
Don’t Deliver Product – This is always a great way to lose that direct sales customer, but you may also lose your ability to sell with your company. This may not be the best method to use to get rid of customers.
Do not Hostess Coach – If you have a party scheduled that you really do not want to do, it is best not to show up for it. This is guaranteed to leave a sour taste in the mouth of the hostess and her friends and you will not hear from them again.
Pass them On – A less harmful method of losing customers is to pass them on to another rep. This is especially great if the customer continues to contact you even if you have followed the previous steps and they persist. Other reps may be grateful to take them off your hands.
Be Honest – You could simply tell the people that you run into that you are no longer taking new clients and give them the business card for someone else. This hits two birds with one stone as you never have their contact information nor do they have yours to get in touch with you in the first place.
