At the same time, maintain a neat and clean appearance and pay attention to details such as nail trimming, teeth cleaning, etc. In addition, just the right accessories can also add points to the overall image, such as ties, watches, etc.
In business situations, smiling and eye contact are essential. A smile quickly brings people closer together, while natural, cordial eye contact conveys friendliness and concern. In addition, proper body language, such as posture, movements, etc., can add color to the salesperson's image.
In their day-to-day behavior, salespeople should follow the appropriate etiquette norms. When meeting, take the initiative to greet and shake hands to express friendship and concern. When talking, listen carefully, respect the other person's opinion, and avoid interrupting the other person.

For example, don't make loud noises, don't talk when you have food in your mouth, etc. These details can reflect a person's cultivation and quality.
When traveling, choosing the right means of transportation can better show a professional image.

As a business card for individuals and companies, business cards also have certain etiquette requirements for their transmission and use.

When receiving a business card, take it with both hands and read it carefully as a sign of respect. In addition, the location of the business card is also important, and it should be placed in a prominent place for easy contact.
Handshakes, as a common etiquette in business situations, also have certain rules and precautions. First of all, the handshake order should be appropriate, depending on the occasion and relationship to decide whether to reach first or wait for the other person to reach out first. At the same time, the handshake should be moderately strong and should not be too heavy or too light. In addition, it is very important to pay attention to the hygiene of your hands.
In business** communication, salespeople should be polite, articulate their intentions, and be mindful of how long they call. When answering the call, you should take the initiative to greet and report to your home to avoid making the other party feel abrupt or confused. At the same time, listen carefully to what the other person is saying and respond appropriately.
Visiting customers is a crucial task in sales work. In order to ensure that the visit goes smoothly, the salesperson needs to be well prepared in advance. First, they need to make an appointment with the client in advance so that they can schedule a visit at the right time. In addition, they should also understand the preferences and needs of their customers in order to better meet their needs and build a good relationship.
When visiting customers, salespeople should respect the customer's time and privacy. They should arrive on time and avoid wasting the customer's time. When communicating with clients, speak and behave appropriately to show professional quality and a good image. At the same time, salespeople should also maintain an appropriate communication distance and avoid getting too close to or alienating customers, so as not to affect the communication effect.
In addition to speech and distancing, salespeople also need to pay attention to details. They should pay attention to observe the customer's reaction and attitude in order to better understand the customer's needs and expectations. At the same time, they should also pay attention to their appearance and image, and maintain a good image and temperament.
At the end of the visit, the salesperson should summarize the lessons learned in a timely manner so that they can continuously improve their sales skills and level. They should analyze the problems and deficiencies encountered during the visit and take corresponding measures to improve them. Only in this way can we continuously improve our sales performance and win the trust and support of customers.
