I have been in some stores where I would wholeheartedly agree with your statement. In some stores, the sales associates only care about selling you something, and sometimes they try hard to push their own products over Anatabloc. You can tell these types of salespeople...they don't ask questions to learn what ailment (or symptoms) the customer is suffering from. They have the cure for whatever ails you (and frequently it is something made by GNC and they get a little extra commission on those sales).
OTOH, I have been in some GNC stores where the associates ask the right questions, and suggest that the best results may come from taking Anatabloc. Typically, those stores are in locations where Anatabloc is selling well, and the clerks know of numerous customers who swear by the use of Anatabloc. Many of the GNC stores I have visited in Florida, Texas, NYC, AZ and around Washington DC seem to appreciate the benefits more than some of the rural area stores I have been to in the south and mid-atlantic areas (where some stores are still only selling a bottle or two per month). But in some areas (typically where word of mouth is spreading), the higher volume stores are stores selling 5 bottles per week or more.
The one thing I have noticed more of in the last two months is a growing number of internet testimonials.
If you haven't checked the testimonials about Anatabloc on Amazon or GNC lately, you might want to check them. The positive testimonials are greatly outnumbering the negative ones (about 10 to 1). It is my belief that a significant portion of the negative testimonials are from people who did not take enough Anatabloc to appreciate the benefits, or did not take it long enough to see the benefit. For some ailments, I have seen people take it for 2-3 weeks before noticing improvements. For example, see what Jimmy Arias (former world #5 tennis player) said in this testimonial (linked below). He had a torn labrum in his hip, and it took him about 3 weeks before noticing the benefits...but now he swears by it.
Also, I know a lot of people who say the same thing Freddie Couples says in the youtube video linked below...Quote "I don't know how to explain it, I just feel much better".
Then, there is the testimonial below of world famous male model Brad Kroenig talking about using Anatabloc to help him with his workouts and Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
As more and more people try Anatabloc, we will see more and more testimonials. The sales increase we are observing now will increase even faster as word of mouth continues to spread.
