When I was in Procurement field prior shifting to IT, the most effective sales people I've seen are those who can demonstrate that their product is better than the competition and provide a good deal that is hard to reject.

 

Example: If you are offering paper e.g. rim of bond paper as a sample why not offer something like on the first6 months to get from you and give them1 rim free. Better if you can find an inferior product then do a demo like ink test or wet test(paper can easily torn off) then after the demo give the company1 rim and evaluate it... I mean something like that.

 

I've been buying a lot in China and South East Asia before so I've seen most tactics just to sell their products...
