Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Except Technical and Scientific Products

Most of us know that all the products people use in their daily lives are manufactured in factories, companies, and institutions across different countries. But have you ever thought about how companies actually sell their products? How do they present them to customers and users? Most companies promote their products through advertising - we see hundreds of ads every day on roads and streets, on TV, and online too, whether on social media or on other websites like shopping and e-commerce sites. But advertising isn't the only way to promote products - companies use other methods too, and one of the most prominent is presenting products directly to consumers and merchants through "sales representatives." A sales representative is responsible for presenting products to customers and selling them. Some sales reps work for companies and handle presenting products to customers over the phone or online, while others go out to local markets to meet with merchants or consumers face to face, showing them the products and discussing each one's features and prices.
