sales shark

(Noun, Derogatory Slang)
Someone who works in sales, usually a call center, who will ask a potential customer questions about things that matter to them, and then use those answers to manipulate them into buying something they don't need or signing up for a payment plan.

"Man, I wasn't sure I'd get off the phone, that sales shark kept pressuring me to buy a landline when I only use my cell phone. I couldn't believe he said I'd need a landline 'in case something happened to my kids and they needed to call for help'. Who says that kind of thing to sell something???"
