Make it desirable. In the sixties there were fabric manufacturers in India who made a cloth. The dyes on the cloth would bleed together when it was washed so he couldn't sell it. He decided to make this a selling point and offered to the world "Madras Cloth the cloth that bleeds." He guaranteed that it would bleed and all of sudden it was selling like hotcakes. Became a very popular cloth for bed spreads and hippies.

Create a demand.

I had a friend once who had an automobile to sell or trade.
He could not get a decent trade in, couldn't sell it for his asking price.

He went to several dealers, just to expose the car, knowing they would not pay his price. While trying to sell him a car, they took his name.

I can't remember the brand or year, but I'll use a 1957 Chevy.

A few days later he began calling dealers, asking if they had a '57 Chevy, like the one he had.
The dealer, of course, told him that he did not, but he just recently had guy come in with that make and model car. So the dealer got his name, "fake," and told him he would get back to him.

This was repeated several times with other dealers.

Then dealers were calling each other looking for that make and model.

Finally a dealer called him, by his real name, and told him to bring the car in and offered him a higher trade in than before.

That's creative selling.

Do you ever wtach TV? Read a magazine? etc? Products that we dont want or need to buy are being sold by the millions every day! It's all about advertising, that is the way to make a totally useless and unwanted product desirable.

"Stone Soup"

the parable of the small village that was experiencing famine. A hungry traveler's request for food was turned down by everyone he asked, receiving the explanation that there was no food to share. He then told the neighbors that under the circumstances, he would teach them how to make stone soup. All he needed was a pot, some water, some good-sized stones, and some vegetables to throw in with the stones. Slowly but surely, the neighbors brought out their secreted carrots, potatoes, turnips--and soon they had a big pot of healthy soup, enough for everyone.

U are wrong, there is always someone who need the product. Its the question of how u reach to the person to sell the product. Your failure should not be your shortcomings.
