Money talks...even if it is BS, the world is full of it.
Before you downvote this, keep in mind that the founder comes from a Mormon background - perfect upbringing to be trained as a salesman
Another example of selling snake-oil ideas comes from the author of the book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People":
"According to Clayton Christensen, The Seven Habits was a secular distillation of Latter-day Saint values." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Covey
sorry, what is the example of? Also, how is the Mormon background good for being a salesman?
They are required to do missionary work like a door to door salesman.
Imagine being trained like that from youth- you could sell anything. This comes from an anecdote from an ex-Mormon friend.
It definitely gives you an edge if you're extroverted to begin with.
