Title: Know Your Customer Well (Humor) Post by: Rhea Thomas on April 30, 2009, 05:16:34 AM A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns from his Middle East assignment.
A friend asked,"Why weren't you successful with the Arabs?" The salesman explained, "When I got posted in the Middle East , I was very confident that I would make a good sales pitch as Cola is virtually unknown there. But, I had a problem I didn't know to speak Arabic. So, I planned to convey the message through three posters...

Second poster - man is drinking our Cola. Third poster- Our man is now totally refreshed. Then these posters were pasted all over the place "That should have worked," said the friend. | | | The salesman replied "I also didn't realize that Arabs read from right to left" |
