Sales Talk
Ooze word patterns in sales talk sweet,
Pulse now sanctions in message neat.
Words hurl and paint a picture nice,
Talk aims to taint warm soothing spice.
Sell and up-sell the motive gains,
All sounds so swell in sure refrain.
Consider how blind faith feels vain,
Wrong choice endows the loss that pains.
Finesse crafts art in sales talk fine,
Look to your heart when greed inclines.
Beware the hints of easy wins,
Check the fine print of risks unseen.
For all things nice comes harsh surprise,
You pay for spice in fatal prize.
Think upon this: check then all facts,
Promise of bliss can cloud wise tact.
The price of gain is to check twice,
There's hidden pain in wrong advice.
Seek then the truth and invest well,
Screen for the proof to know who sells.
Too good to be true can hurt you,
Learn how to see what pays good dues.
