Customer Vs. Promoter - Ask to role play.

All participants have to demo/see the products in this exercise once as a customer and again as a promoter. This exercise should be done for all mixers, grinders, and gas stoves.

Ask the customer to ask all sorts of pertinent questions based on their experience. Importantly, it is necessary to have questions to fully understand the features and benefits of the product.

You can do this exercise as many times as you like. If we make mistakes in this training hall we can correct them. But, there is no chance for customers to do anything wrong.
