The store manager said: \u201cWe are looking for somebody with sales experience but we\u2019re having a holiday sale tomorrow and you can give it a try.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the end of the day the manager checked the day sales and was shocked, the boy had sold $79,083.25 worth of merchandise.<\/p>\n
He asked the boy how he did it and he replied: \u201cWell this guy was going fishing so I asked if he wanted some fish hooks. He said sure. That\u2019s $1. I asked if he had a nice fishing pole. He said no and got a graphite pole for $44. I asked if he had a nice reel. He said no and I got him a reel for $35. I asked where he will be fishing and he said White Lake.<\/p>\n
\u201cI said the best places to fish are near the centre, and when he said he didn\u2019t have a boat, I set him up with a 10 metre cruiser for $28,000. I asked if he had a trailer. He didn\u2019t, so I got him a double axle trailer for $3,000. Then I asked what he had to tow the boat. He only had a station wagon, so I told him that just wouldn\u2019t do, but we could get him a nice fully loaded Dodge Ram for $48,000. He wanted it all\u201d.<\/p>\n
The store manager was astounded: \u201cAnd to think it all began with that man asking for fish hooks.\u201d<\/p>\n
The boy said: \u201cOh no, it all began with him asking for some $3.25 tampons for his girlfriend, and I said: \u2018Well you won\u2019t be doing much this weekend so you might as well go fishing!’\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
