1Question

Tell me about a time you had to influence a difficult customer to secure a sale

Situation: A pub landlord in my territory was resistant to stocking our premium soft drinks range, claiming his customers only wanted basic options. Task: I needed to secure this £1,200 annual account to meet my quarterly target. Action: I analysed his customer demographics and presented data showing 34% of pub visitors now choose premium mixers. I arranged a free trial period with point of sale materials and offered to personally train his bar staff on upselling techniques. Result: Within 6 weeks, premium mixer sales represented 28% of his soft drinks revenue. He signed a 12-month contract worth £1,400, exceeding my original target by 17%.
2Question

Describe how you've used commercial, fact-based conversations to drive positive outcomes

Situation: A convenience store owner was considering dropping our products due to perceived slow movement. Task: I needed to retain this £2,800 annual account and demonstrate our value proposition. Action: I compiled 3 months of sales data showing our products had 15% higher margin than competitors and faster stock turn on promotional periods. I presented a category management plan showing optimal shelf positioning and suggested a trial of our new flavour variants. Result: The owner agreed to expand our shelf space by 40% and committed to a 6-month promotional calendar. Sales increased by 31% over the following quarter, generating an additional £950 in revenue.
