Mr. Do -It- Right? He has a dealer plan for me? Well, let him in.” MR. WHEELER: “Mr. Rishel?” (Extends hand.) MR. RISHEL: “What is your name?” MR. WHEELE R: “Do -It- Right!”
MR. RISHEL: “Mr. Right?” MR. WHEELER: “Right!” MR. RISHEL: “What can I do for you?”
MR. WHEELER: “Mr. Rishel, as I told your secretary, I have a dealer plan which not only will be helpful in solving some of your dealer problems, but will be helpful to me.” MR. RISHEL: “What do you know about my problems?”
MR. WHEELER: “Fundamentally , all dealer selling problems are about the same. Aren’t they, Mr. R ishel?”
MR. RISHEL: “Yes – but we’ve got our own headaches. Our proposition is different!” MR. WHEELER: “Of course, Mr. Rishel, each product or service has its individual peculiarities. But what would you say some of your own individual headaches were?” MR. RISHEL: “Our biggest headache is to get the dealer to carry through.” MR. WHEELER: “Mr. Rishel, you’ll no doubt be interested in how the Always Progressive Corporation met that problem.”
