Utilitarianism:
Should salespersons take their potential client to strip club?
Galen McDowell was a good salesperson who knew how to purchase the higher performances out of the salespeople under him. Bob wanted to sign a big contract with Kinan Motor who was his potential client, so he gave this assignment to Galen, and Galen got this opportunity to promote his value to the organisation. Then he made the plan to take them to a strip club which is called Red Ruby.
In marketing sales and business activities, take their potential client to strip club is normal strategy or approach that salespersons will use to get straight down to business and sign the contracts, and it always will get a perfect result, but it also has many public opinion in society. Xavier who is a CEO of an American bond trader stated that if you can have a happy and good night with client, the more than 80% marketing shares will wave to you, and strip club always have the relationship with commercial activities (Frank. 2007). In fact, do business activity in strip club doesn’t have specific legal rule, in particular in American (Frank. 2003). And more and more sales managers and client are willing to accept this way to discuss business. But for social ethics, it should be unethical and unacceptable, because it is the discrimination for women, because business not only have men but also have women.
Otherwise, Galen wants to have high performance from every assignment, when he takes his client to strip club, no one
