Making Personal Selling Role Plays More Realistic

Abstract

The use of role plays in sales management classes is pervasive, but one recurring drawback is the lack of realism. Students acting as buyers are often too easy on the “sellers.” The authors outline a classroom-tested approach to incorporating buyer personalities and sales scenarios in personal selling role plays.
