MCQ - 154-8106

Abdullah Sheikh, senior sales officer in a multinational, has trained many top salespeople in his company, including seven who have become the top salespersons in their regions and three who have won the top salesperson award. Although there is an art to selling, Mr. Sheikh’s success at training top salespeople shows that the skills required to become a top salesperson can be both taught and learned.

Question:

Abdullah Sheikh, senior sales officer in a multinational, has trained many top salespeople in his company, including seven who have become the top salespersons in their regions and three who have won the top salesperson award. Although there is an art to selling, Mr. Sheikh’s success at training top salespeople shows that the skills required to become a top salesperson can be both taught and learned.

The argument above depends on which one of the following assumptions?

  1. Mr. Sheikh does not teach the hard-sell method. Nor does he teach the “I’ll-be-your friend” method. Instead, he stresses the professional-client relationship.
  2. More than 50% of the people trained by Mr. Sheikh went on to become successful salespeople.
  3. One of the successful salespeople who trained under Mr. Sheikh was not an accomplished salesperson before learning the Sheikh’s Method.
  4. More than 50% of the people trained by Mr. Sheikh went on to become successful salespeople.
  5. There is no one method with which to approach sales; a method that works for one person may not for another person.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

If the salespeople trained by Mr. Sheikh were successful before studying under him, then clearly the argument would be specious. On the other hand, if none of the salespeople were successful before studying under him, then the argument would be strong. However, the argument does not require this much strength of a statement in order to be valid. It is sufficient that one person gets skill from the tutelage of Mr. Sheikh.
