"I can see right through you," said the buyer to the salesperson. "I know exactly what you're trying to do!"
Question: Is that a good thing or a bad thing? This may surprise you, but I think it's a very good thing. I believe that the best selling is highly transparent—no tricks, no games, and no subterfuge. The great salespeople don't trick anyone into buying from them; they help their prospects and customers to reach an unmistakable conclusion. When a great salesperson makes a sale, there's no "buyer's remorse", just the confidence that comes from making a good decision.
