What do people actually mean by someone or a brand sounding too "salesy"?

[King Belieal]

Some people are quick to to point out to people and claim that their posts are always too salesy. What do they really mean by sounding too "salesy" with posts on social media? Should I come and pretend that I don't want to make sales as I make posts on social media?

I think it means they are trying too hard to make people buy their products or services, or they are simply sounding desperate for sales.

I think that means they are too pushy to get people to buy their products without giving customers enough time to consider.

Saying a post is “salesy” often means that it’s too focused on selling without building a relationship or providing value. People like to feel like they’re connected to someone, not just being sold something. So, if you’re just focused on selling, you might make them ignore you.

Don’t pretend you’re not selling, but create content that educates, entertains, or touches the heart. If you provide value first, people will build trust with you and selling will come more easily. Trust leads to consistent sales.

It is using overly aggressive or pushy approach when selling a product or service. It typically involves emphasizing the benefits of the product .

When the entire aim of every advert the brand or company makes is just targeted at making sales. It is sounding too salesy.

Tell the truth, sir, these advertisements that chase you like a thief in the market are offensive. The brand gives you all the scary stories and in the end you only find that it is selling. People get tired of the methods of forcing them to buy.

The best way is to be polite with your customers. Give them real help and present solutions to their problems. Don't be in a hurry to steal their money. A trap to kill me cannot reap twice.

Quickly make your advertisements meaningful and teach your customers something. Only then will you truly attract them and they will give you their money willingly. He who follows the bees does not lack honey.

Remember that the beginning of a business has an end. People know how you are targeting them and they can give you the shadow of their back. It is better to be quick to lead wisely than to chase customers by force.

There are some adverts that you know that the brand is trying so hard to convince you to buy instead of just promoting their products. That's annoying.

There you have spoken a great truth. They think people are stupid. They want to convince us by force.

But these days people are careful. These deceptive advertisements don't work anymore. If you see me, I'm running away.

It's better for people to start being honest. Talk to us like friends. Without that slanderous accusation, you're lying.

A drug dealer does not deliver. A good product advertises itself. Don't worry, their cunning ends there.
