Hi, greeting to all.
I'm writing a sales pitch instruction currently.
But there are problem with the sentences.

How to properly introduce our xxx product?

This is the sentence I came up with:
It was done in perfect salesmanship. the way John Doe did it is a perfect example to follow.

Is it okay to use salesmanship in this context?
It was done in perfect salesmanship. the way John Doe did it is a perfect example to follow.
If you want to use "salesmanship", I suggest: John Doe's salesmanship is a perfect example to follow.

You'd have to describe his salesmanship of course.

Thank you for your helpful advice. I appreciate people rephrase my sentence to be less redundant.

No, it's not okay. I think it's rather unusual even to talk of a single individual's salesmanship. Normally the word is only used to describe the overall concept of sales techniques and skill.

What exactly is it that you're trying to say? I'm not sure what this has to do with a sales pitch?

Thanks for your reply. I see. The word salesmanship isn't about individual sale technique but the a whole team or group. I'd used sales technique instead i future when refering individually.

Hi, do you think this sample sentence below makes any sense to you?

The solution lies under eliminating vampires and improving quality products to have possible salesmanship

from this link:

Salesmanship in a sentence | Example sentences
The problem with the sentence is that it imparts no meaningful information.

What made perfect salesmanship?
What did he say?
How did he respond to the customer?

It reminds me of the banner you often see when a retail store changes ownership: Under New Ownership

The the customer what does that mean? Higher or lower prices? Longer or shorter operation hours? New products? Fewer products? More pleasant interactions? Less pleasant ones?

So you have to re-craft the sentence so it actually says something meaningful.
For a start, I've never heard "the solution lies under…" rather than "lies in".

Secondly, all the other examples in the same list are fine. This one looks like it was put in by some joker specially for Hallowe'en!

Thanks for the reply! Those sentenses as though made with random words to me. I doubted myself if I still weak in comprehension of even just a sample. It's a relive that a native speaker as you find it odd.

Thank you for your advise.

Just for a try to make it sensible I would rephrase it into:

To gain better profit margins the solution(perharps for business ) lies in (as lingobingo suggests) eliminating vampires(those who gain more by lowered worker's wages in order ) and improving the quality of products in order to liase with salesmanship that we reckoned to be successful throughtout the time.
