I will convince an illiterate customer to buy by patiently educating him the importance and good qualities of the product and by giving him the best offer that I can give.

 

Being fair and true to your customer the key to be a successful salesperson.

I would recommend to first understand the background of the client and see where and how the product could best suit their needs. Next, through a personal conversation and in a very non technical language tell them its importance of the product and the problem that they could solve.  However like there is already a mention video,photographs and especially modern technology like graphics and other digital mediums could play a very important role in the sales strategy.

Try to understand their needs, find the best solution and translate it in words that fit within the limits of their understanding. Never use the fancy sales sentences, they will make a negative effect on them.

By giving them effectively information about qualty and prices in addition to after sales service such as transportation and guarantee and payment facilities

Never a sales man is trained to sell only to educated persons. So this question does not arise. A salesman will have to sell his products to each and everyone by using  his knowledge and skills and not on the buyers skills & knowledge.
