Hustling

unedited 11/30/08

A powerful sales pitch that manipulates the potential customers emotions. In includes concealed threats and intimidation if need be. Here the business person tightly holds on the the customers attention. They do not let go and can begin to pester a person if they do not buy. However the threats and intimidation are not real rather they are symbolic. This is an ethically questionably behavior but it is more commonly found at the lowest of social levels, at a level of survival. But, it is not uncommon, for example, to find a used car salesman hustling a client.

hustling is not boiler plate, there is a spirit to it.
