Intr!'ct%!n
Selling is first and foremost a transaction between the seller and the prospective
bu"er or bu"ers 2the target market3 where mone" 2or something considered to have
monetar" value3 is e4changed for goods or services. So the best wa" to define selling is
to focus on the sales skills that are necessar" to make that transaction happen. Defining
The seller or the provider of the goods or services completes a sale in response to
an ac6uisition7 appropriation7 re6uisition or a direct interaction with the bu"er at the point
of sale. There is a passing of title 2propert" or ownership3 of the item7 and the settlement
the item will occur. The seller7 not the purchaser generall" e4ecutes the sale and it ma" be
completed prior to the obligation of pa"ment. In the case of indirect interaction7 a person
who sells goods or service on behalf of the owner is known as a salesman or saleswoman
or salesperson7 but this often refers to someone selling goods in a store8shop7 in which
case other terms are also common7 including salesclerk7 shop assistant7 and retail clerk.
Selling skills are critical in organi9ations that rel" on ongoing bu"ing from
customers or clients. The abilit" to build relationships with customers7 persuade them to
make purchases and generate repeat business is at the heart of selling. A sale is a

uniform pattern. The Stifle 2Centre techni6ue interprofesionnel des fruits et legumes7 2
Laborde7 et al.7 ''03 identifies three different t"pes of group behavior patterns. The first

consumers belong to the third group. The" are looking for fast and simple wa"s to
prepare meals : i.e. prepackaged items7 fresh:cut7 fro9en7 canned and read" to eat
produce.
There are other factors which also influence bu"ing decisions. The main ob;ective
of bu"ing is to obtain satisfaction. &or fruits and vegetables7 this means being able to
meet nutritional re6uirements as well as being able to en;o" different tastes7 te4tures7
colors and aromas. There are two ke" considerations. The tangible 6ualit" attributes such
as uniformit"7 freshness7 6ualit"7 color7 ripeness7 packaging7 etc. which affect appearance
and make produce more appealing or attractive compared to similar products. /u"ing
decisions are also influenced b" some intangible 6ualit" attributes such as 6ualit"7
After the government suspended the import of vegetable for neighboring countr"7
the price of vegetable has shot up. The vegetable business in the countr" is awkward and
hard to understand. The profit for vegetable is huge comparing to our farmers. The
hardships of our farmers are being sold to the vendors who are imposing huge price on
the vegetables. Local and pure organic product is strong phrase use b" these vendors to

S"stematic reviews are important for evidence:based practice. Such review efforts
have almost solel" been focused on 6uantitative studies which are also the case for
research to increase insight into processes which influence "oung people5s fruit and

polic"making in diet and health issues and facilitates communit" and local programs that
address national dietar" goals to increase fruit and vegetable consumption. Current
scientific evidence also suggests a protective role for fruits and vegetables in prevention
of coronar" heart disease7 and evidence is accumulating for a protective role in stroke. In
addition7 a new scientific base is emerging to support a protective role for fruits and
benefits associated with fruit and vegetable consumption for each of these conditions7

duration of the stud"7 although the behavioral approaches providing the greatest increase
in intake have not been clearl" established. Several common behavioral theories and
