For today’s Business English Podcast lesson, we’re going to focus on the “classic sales” approach to selling products and services. This approach is based on explaining the features, attributes and benefits of your products using the “FAB” technique.
The FAB technique is useful for people working in the manufacturing and retail trade – anyone who has to present products. En particular, we’ll look at how this approach can be applied in the Merchandizing business. Merchandizing is the trade name for businesses involved in the design and manufacture of clothing and household items.
En el diálogo, we rejoin Marco and Francesca on their trip to a fashion trade show in the U.S. su empresa, Viva, has just created an exciting new line of clothes. With the help of their American partner, Fox, they are hoping to get a couple big sales contracts with U.S. department stores.
The listening takes place in the Foxtrot showroom. We’ll hear Francesca speak to a potential customer, Factura, who is a buyer for Bancroft’s, a retail chain store that targets professional women.
