One of the things that I have learned over the years working in sales is that there is a good opportunity for an upsell once you have the customer sold on the product.  I was introduced to this at an early age at my first job in a coffee shop, with this simple line “would you like a donut with your coffee?”

Now, many years later, the same mantra holds true – I go for the upsell after getting the sale.  Currently, I am working in an electronics department selling HD TVs and working on commission.  We don’t make a whole lot on television sales, but if we can get the customer to purchase another product at the time of sale, we get a bonus.

So, lately I have been aggressively upselling the customers on TV screen protection as a smart investment.  This is definitely an easy sale for parents with young children, who don’t hesitate to buy a tv screen protector at all.

If you are working in electronics sales, take advantage of this tip – you can easily increase your commissions per customer by selling them this useful and essential accessory.
