Mo-Mo-Moneyclip!

This year we ask more than 1.000 PSfm flex employees to share their favorite field marketing story. Each month we pick the most special one, which will be rewarded with € 150, – to fill the special PSfm Money Clip.

The second one this year who wins a filled Money Clip is Ryan van Rossum. Read his story about his first day at PSfm Works …

“It was my very first day, fresh from the product training, on a cold Monday afternoon in Alkmaar. I must confess that I was pretty tense, which my first customers probably noticed. However, in no-time I became a lot better and halfway through the workday I was feeling confident about the job. At the end of my day I spoke to a shy lady probably around the age of 25. I asked her about her age and she just nodded quietly and was grabbing in her bag. She came up with a white card from her purse.

On the card was in red letters: ”I’m learning to deal with stuttering at the Dutch Stutter Association Demosthenes”. At that moment I knew that this was not a regular sales conversation. But I was not planning to let this conversation go! I wanted this lady to try out the product we were selling as well. I asked her to come with me to my counter back in the shop so I could talk to her quietly without the hustle of the station around us. Once arrived at the counter I started again from the beginning and I gave her the opportunity to say something back. After talking and demonstrating the product, she did a purchase.

After the checkout she came back to me and told me she was very happy that we had a normal conversation, which helped her to overcome her stutter. On my way home in the train I realised that this was an interesting experience. I had a new experience and it helped her in overcoming her stuttering. “
