Birth Of A Salesman

image

“Selling isn’t a job, it’s a religion.” Be brainwashed, be ruthless, be successful. That is the evangelical message of Nick Each, salesman and trainer for Vorwek vacuum cleaners.

He has one year to turn 10 recruits into fast-talking, fast-earning super slick salesmen (and woman). His raw material, however, is not impressive. An ex-milkman who can’t face another winter of early rises. An ex-soldier desperate for a BMW. A born-again Christian keen to sell his other faith. Cartoon bottles crash to the floor as one by one the wannabe salesmen head for the door, leaving one survivor – the woman who sold an £800 hoover... to her mother. A film as slick and stylish as the trainees hoped to be.
