No, I'm asking if you've ever tried to have sex with a prospect to win a deal.

Went to a huge business conference in Vegas. Hotel lobbies are literally palatial, so hardly a public spectacle. But saw an attendee, make an indecent proposition to another attendee. Played the friend card, right up until he made his move, and it was like a scene out of the movies. . She was hitting him with her purse screaming โ€œIโ€™m married and so are you. You should be ashamed!โ€ repeatedly, in the lobby of MGM. Hilarious.

Yea but it actually caused them to cancel the deal because my product came up short against the competitors. Guessing the other sales rep had the same idea I did๐Ÿฅฒ

the bigger the deal the higher the stakes. Not worth it. I've done it and when it goes bad, you will regret it. People are never who they pretend to be at work.ย

Back in my small business days I lost a deal to a rep at our main competitor who banged the prospect. Worse thing is she brought another rep out to also have sex with the guy to seal the deal. Guyโ€™s business closed down less than a year later so I guess thatโ€™s fitting.

This sounds more like the plot of a porno than a scenario that would play out IRL. Youโ€™re trying to close the deal and showing them โ€œyour giftโ€ is the thing thatโ€™s gonna get it done? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
