- 2. A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns from his China assignment. A friend asked, "Why weren't you successful with the Chinese" The salesman explained, "When I got posted to China , I was very confident that I would make a good sales pitch as Cola is virtually unknown there. But, I had a problem I didn't speak Chinese.

Third poster‐ Our man is now totally refreshed. Then these posters were pasted all over the place . "That should have worked," said the friend. Guess what’s wrong with the poster?
