Trade is a very important concept that has become the basis of life in the world for many centuries. This important concept, which we call trade, generally involves two parties; buyer and seller. Day by day, commercial perspectives have become the star part of the approach which is called capitalism, which has completely changed today's world.

The importance of money came to the fore with the industrial revolution movement that emerged especially in Europe and started to spread all over the world in the early 1900s. 

From this period, commercial relations ceased to be a daily part of life and started to be taught as a branch in schools and universities and gained importance in academic terms. 

With the effect of digital transformation and high-dose capitalism that started in the 21st century, trade has become one of the main elements in every step of human life. Today, trade has become a critical goal, not a tool in every field.

In my personal opinion, there is a tripod that constitutes the trade. they are seller - product - buyer respectively. In today's article, I will share the responsibilities of the seller.

Even though the places change, the values ​​that are the basis of trade never change. As an experienced salesperson, welcoming the buyer and making the first contact with a smiling face is the biggest positive step for the current business transaction, regardless of what the product is. 

The product can be ready-made or a technical project or a piece that requires a tailor-made solution, in all of these, the performance of the seller, the product knowledge and the fair approach in pricing are of great importance for the continuity of the commercial process. 

Of course, in business life, everything may not always go as desired. The product may be defective or broken. In such cases, we should always stand with the customer. 

At the end of the day, people invest their money in your product and it will be a great source of happiness to see that the place where the product is sold is with them. Do not forget that the trust you gave to your customer in the first place will return to you as a very long-term business contract.
