Yes, I did miss your point about a profit motive, because I ignored your point about upselling. If you need to upsell, you have not packaged your goods correctly. I achieve what you think of as an “upsell” because I sell a package of goods. There is no need to upsell because they already have every product I sell in the one package.
Sometimes a customer can ask for a single component but I do not listen. If they are a customer they already have this component, and if they are not a customer I am not interested in what they say.
By ignoring the pests and selling to the best, this is how I am a success.
I teach this rhyme to all my staff.

Oh well, it looks like she's spelling it right anyway.

and you've just popped up a very old memory of mine. i went to university in hamilton, and the first time i'd ever heard of hamilton was as a child - the murder of john dick and their infant son by wife/mother evelyn. the case was known as the torso killing because a few kids found the mutilated torso of the man's corpse on the escarpment (infant was found later encased in cement inside a suitcase). the story fascinated me as a child and i went to school there partly out of morbid curiousity.
