Sales people are trained to be problem solvers — we ask questions, probe — once we find a problem we attack like a pit bull and don’t let go until we’ve wrestled the problem to the ground and gotten the order.

And truly great copywriters and advertizers know how to create a problem where the customer did not percieve one before. (You'll never be pretty enough to be popular unless you buy this brand of shoes)

Dave,

What a great concept not only for sales people but for all entrepreneurs and small business leaders in general. Why are the only two options trying to push a solution down a client's throat without really knowing it is the right answer for them or relying upon them to tell you what service they need? Seems like there is a better way to really address a client or customer's problem in a more satisfactory way.
