    What is the first rule of thumb about an opening line?

    • Always make it about Lovesac

    • No questions

    • Always use the same one so nobody feels discriminated against

    • It should be a non-business realted question

    Correct Answer
    A. It should be a non-business realted question
    Explanation
    The first rule of thumb about an opening line is that it should be a non-business related question. This means that the opening line should not be directly related to the business or its products, but rather a casual or friendly question that can help establish a rapport with the person or audience being addressed. This approach can create a more relaxed and engaging atmosphere, making it easier to connect with others and initiate a conversation.

    Spending the time to establish rapport and empathy with each guest is a key step in becoming successful.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Establishing rapport and empathy with each guest is a key step in becoming successful because it helps to create a positive and comfortable environment. When guests feel understood and valued, they are more likely to have a positive experience and form a connection with the person or business. This can lead to increased customer satisfaction, loyalty, and ultimately, success. By taking the time to establish rapport and empathy, individuals or businesses can build strong relationships with their guests, which can have a positive impact on their overall success.

    No matter what role you fill on your team, your primary job is to sell!

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In a team, regardless of the specific role one occupies, the ultimate objective is to sell. This does not necessarily mean selling a product or service in a traditional sense, but rather selling ideas, solutions, or collaboration to achieve common goals. Selling involves effectively communicating, persuading, and influencing others to buy into your vision or contribute to the team's success. Therefore, it is true that no matter the role, everyone on the team plays a part in selling.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    When using a promo to close a sale, never add a date to quotes that include a promotion, outlining when the promotion expires. If a guest doesn't purchase today then we really don't concern oursleves with their future needs as only buying customers really matter.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement in the question suggests that it is not necessary to add a date to quotes that include a promotion. However, this is not true. Adding a date to quotes with promotions is important as it creates a sense of urgency for the customer to make a purchase. It also helps in managing inventory and planning future promotions. Ignoring the future needs of potential customers is not a good business practice, as building long-term relationships and customer loyalty is crucial for success. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Friedman says, "Trust is established through the caring tone of your questions and the empathetic support you give to your customer’s answers."

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    According to Friedman, trust is built by using a caring tone in your questions and providing empathetic support to your customer's answers. This implies that showing genuine concern and understanding towards customers' needs and concerns can help establish trust. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    QAS (Question-Answer-Support) is based on the premise that people’s feelings and opinions deserve to be more than just heard – they deserve to be dismissed because at the end of the day, time is money.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement suggests that QAS is based on the idea that people's feelings and opinions should be dismissed because time is valuable. However, this is not a valid premise for QAS. QAS should be based on the principle that people's feelings and opinions deserve to be heard and respected, not dismissed. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    One of the basic tenets of sales is: it’s not what you want to sell someone, it’s what they want – and are ready – to buy.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The basic tenet of sales mentioned in the statement is that it is not about selling what you want, but rather selling what the customer wants and is ready to buy. This means that successful salespeople focus on understanding the needs and desires of their customers and tailoring their approach to meet those needs, rather than trying to push products or services that may not be relevant or appealing to the customer. This approach is more likely to lead to successful sales and satisfied customers.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    “No retail company can maintain stock levels with every item available in every size and at any time.  The ability to convert a customer from an item you don’t have to one that is in stock is one of the most powerful tools you can develop.”

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because it is not feasible for a retail company to maintain stock levels with every item available in every size and at any time. It would require a significant amount of resources and storage space to stock every possible item. Instead, the ability to convert a customer from an item that is not in stock to one that is in stock is crucial for retail companies. This allows them to fulfill customer needs and preferences even if the exact item requested is not available.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    If a guest doesn't apply for the LSCC before leaving, always include an application with their quote and inform them of the great promotions and benefits available exclusively to LSCC holders.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that if a guest does not apply for the LSCC (presumably a loyalty or membership card) before leaving, it is recommended to include an application with their quote and inform them about the exclusive promotions and benefits available to cardholders. This implies that the company values customer loyalty and wants to encourage guests to become members by offering incentives and perks. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    The purpose of the 'transition' is to take away defensive shields and get down to business.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that the purpose of the 'transition' is to remove any defensive shields and focus on the main task at hand. This implies that the transition is meant to eliminate any distractions or barriers that may hinder progress or productivity, allowing individuals or teams to fully engage and concentrate on their work. Therefore, the statement is true as it highlights the intended objective of a transition.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    Choose the three basic concepts of the 'shmooze'

    • Don’t violate a customer’s personal space

    • Resist the urge to get down to business too quickly

    • Take every opportunity to hang out and have non-business conversations

    • Get as physically close to the guest as possible so that you can create a bond

    • Let them know that your mission is to sell them something and that your time is valuable

    • Making your guest feel pressured into buying the most functional furniture in the world

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Don’t violate a customer’s personal space
    A. Resist the urge to get down to business too quickly
    A. Take every opportunity to hang out and have non-business conversations
    Explanation
    The three basic concepts of the 'shmooze' are to not violate a customer's personal space, to resist the urge to get down to business too quickly, and to take every opportunity to hang out and have non-business conversations. These concepts emphasize the importance of building a personal connection with the customer before discussing business matters. By respecting their personal space, taking the time to build rapport, and engaging in non-business conversations, the salesperson can create a comfortable and friendly atmosphere, increasing the likelihood of a successful sale.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    When gathering information using the concept of QAS (Question-Answer-Support), what is the the best way to build trust with your guest?

    • Asking another question after they have answered your original question

    • Supporting their answer before asking another question

    • Letting them know that Lovesac is going to be around for a long time so they shouldn't have any reservations about purchasing

    • Standing as close to them as you can so they understand how serious you are about wanting to be their new best friend

    Correct Answer
    A. Supporting their answer before asking another question
    Explanation
    The best way to build trust with a guest when using QAS is to support their answer before asking another question. This shows that you value their input and acknowledge their response. By providing support, you demonstrate that you are actively listening and understanding their perspective, which helps to establish a sense of trust and rapport. This approach encourages open and honest communication, making the guest feel more comfortable and confident in sharing their thoughts and opinions.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    Statistically, 6 out of 10 retail sales presentations fail because the salesperson never asked for the sale.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that according to statistics, 6 out of 10 retail sales presentations fail because the salesperson never asked for the sale. This means that a significant number of salespeople do not actively seek to close the sale, resulting in a high failure rate. Therefore, the statement that "6 out of 10 retail sales presentations fail because the salesperson never asked for the sale" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    If a guest enters your store and you don't seem to be compatible, the best course of action is to...

    • Introduce him or her to another Sac’r

    Correct Answer
    A. Introduce him or her to another Sac’r
  • 17. 

    Buying signals from your guests are always pretty straight forward.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Buying signals from guests are not always straightforward. Guests may express their interest in a product or service in various ways, such as asking questions, showing enthusiasm, or requesting more information. However, interpreting these signals accurately requires careful observation and understanding of individual guest behavior and preferences. Therefore, the statement that buying signals from guests are always straightforward is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    The purpose of the 'schmooze' is to maintain customer resistance and to develop skin-deep relationships.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The purpose of 'schmooze' is not to maintain customer resistance but rather to reduce it. Schmoozing involves building genuine and meaningful relationships with customers, which can help in gaining their trust and loyalty. It goes beyond surface-level interactions and aims to establish a strong connection with customers. Therefore, the statement that the purpose of 'schmooze' is to maintain customer resistance is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Understanding their hopes, dreams and wants
    A. Listening carefully, asking questions astutely and actively empathizing

    Explanation

    How many of the following are important in being able to gain a guest's trust and close a sale?

    • Empathy

    • Sincere curiosity

    • Wisely chosen words

    • Close-ended questions

    • Active understanding

    • Treating each guest exactly the same

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Empathy
    A. Sincere curiosity
    A. Wisely chosen words
    A. Active understanding
    Explanation
    Empathy, sincere curiosity, wisely chosen words, and active understanding are all important in gaining a guest's trust and closing a sale. Empathy allows the salesperson to understand and connect with the guest's emotions and needs. Sincere curiosity helps the salesperson ask relevant and engaging questions to better understand the guest's preferences. Wisely chosen words enable effective communication and persuasion. Active understanding involves actively listening and responding to the guest's concerns and feedback. Treating each guest exactly the same may not necessarily build trust as it fails to acknowledge individual needs and preferences.

    Talking about how great our product is and why everyone needs it is the single most important part of building a relationship that will lead to, not just an initial sale, but a lifetime customer relationship.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that talking about the greatness of a product and why everyone needs it is the single most important part of building a customer relationship. However, this is not necessarily true. While promoting the benefits and features of a product is important, building a strong customer relationship involves various other factors such as understanding customer needs, providing excellent customer service, and maintaining ongoing communication. Therefore, the statement is false.

    • Opening line

    • Transition question

    • Verbal contract

    • Probing technique

    Explanation
    The opening line is the most critical step in selling because it sets the tone for the entire interaction with the customer.

A strong opening line grabs the customer's attention, establishes rapport, and creates a positive atmosphere for the sales pitch.

It also includes crafting language that connects the add-on item to the main item and reinforces the customer's commitment to the purchase. Additionally, it involves asking low-key, customer-oriented questions that keep the salesperson engaged with the customer and their needs. The question should be carefully chosen to demonstrate the salesperson's expertise and understanding of the customer's specific situation.
