I guess selling really has changed from years ago. If you sell a new handgun, try to sell some obvious add on's. If they buy a new Glock that comes with 2 magazines, offer to sell them two additional ones at a discount. Ask the customer if he would like an Ammo sampler pack at a special price (mix 6 different brands (and include a box of RDA in the pack) with a gun purchase. Selling a rifle? Offer up a sling at a discount.

But work with the customer, you'd be surprised that most are pretty smart.

I think trying to sell a lazer at gun purchase time is pressing it. CT is needs to get into the real world of a gunshop and see what the CUSTOMER wants. Most people are not willing to pay premium prices for a lazer sight. Heck the one on the flashlight I have I never use. If they want to sell more, they need to provide incentives...
