Keep teaching and selling separate

"You can use our roadshow to educate the team about your resort," Mr Gallard offered.

We sales people encounter this a lot: in order to sell our products we have to teach the prospect about it. We have to fulfill both roles - salesperson and teacher.

When doing presentations, we need to educate (what is it?) and sell (why buy it?) at the same time. I find that using 2 different backgrounds in the powerpoint presentation, 1 for teaching slides and 1 for sales slides, is more effective.
