How to sell a product....

I have been in sales most of my adult life, and have been very successful.  I was blessed with a wonderful mentor in my first job out of College, selling computer software for a medium sized company out of California. She told me something that I have used ever since, and which most successful sales people will agree: If your best sale's pitch is dissing your competition, then you have already lost the sale. Most people don't buy products because another product is inferior to yours. You sell a product by convincing your customer that your product is superior to the competition, or better yet, that you don't even have any competition. To put in terms for the average Joe, just because Ford makes shitty cars, it does not mean that Chevys are better.  The only sales people who try to make sales in this fashion are those who don't have a good product to sell.

Why am I talking about sales on this blog? Because Kristen has yet to identify any reason to vote for her. Her sales pitch is "Patsy sucks". OK, let's assume that is true.  Why would this lead you to vote for Kristen? What positive attributes does she possess? What will she do to make your life better? I have not heard a single mention of anything that qualifies Kristen to run or what she would do in a positive manner to make our lives better. In other words, she is selling a shitty product. That is my thought on the matter.
