Feng Shui for salesmen

- Never point your prospect with a knife, because pointy things channel bad luck. Good heavens, do I have to spit it out - bad luck could mean that you lose the sale.
- Always place papers to the table between you and the customer. If the customer expresses anger you can mirror bad energy away with a flip of a paper sheet.
- Stay away from any body of water, because it either makes you constantly to run in and out of toilet or worse yet in and out of consciousness. Stay dry and gain an extended benefit of dry armpits - now that’s something that everybody appreciates.
- Keep lights on at all times. Too much darkness - yin - can water your efforts, but bright lightning brings out the color of your clothes giving you strong position - yang. Remember to wear something else than the Hard Rock Cafe T-shirt that you got from NYC. Some customers of opposite sex would prefer you to turn off lights, but brace yourself and prevail. Make the sale first and turn off the lights only after.
- Organize your calendar. Things happen in cycles so remember to pack adequate amount of personal hygiene products when it’s that time of the month. Customers really don’t dig it if you smudge their antique sofa.

We have been designing a new line of houses for Mediterranean markets and we decided to use Feng Shui as our guiding light - not to mention ease of transporting and low price. So I do know something about it and eventually it got me thinking how many sales tricks that we have fall into Feng Shui set of rules. Must be something in it, eh?
