If Steve Jobs were handed a pen and told, "sell me this pen", how would he go about it?

Thanks to the great answer of Jong-Moon Kim, there is little more to say about how Jobs would go about doing this.

He would almost definitely use what is called his 'reality distortion field' - where he would be proclaim that the pen he is selling is the best in the world and then say something like:
"This pen is magical; the best ever, a revolution.
And it only costs $399".

At which point, you would get a reaction somewhat like this.



Now, in 2004, Steve Jobs introduced 'iPod Socks'.
When he did so at the 2004 keynote, there were many nervous laughs as people didn't think this could actually be happening.

They managed to sell for eight years.
So, if Jobs was able to sell a product such as iPod Socks for eight years, he could sell anything - even your pen.



- The legendary socks are said to be one of Apple's worst products ever.


"They keep your iPod warm on cold days" - Steve Jobs
