Answer:
Yes, a sales representative can translate his skills into being a buyer
Explanation:
A sales representative is one who completes a sale of a product in a direct or face to face interaction with the buyer.
Skills of a good sales representative includes:
1. Product knowledge
2. Strategic prospecting skills
3. Active listening
4. Communication
5. Good time management
A sales representative can convert all these skills listed above into becoming a better judge of a product as a buyer and in relation with other sales representatives.
One of the challenging thing about the shift would be the ability to trust another sales representative's words about a product or service.
The skill that would translate seamlessly would be product knowledge because if a sales rep already have a good knowledge of a product before it would greatly enhance his choices when choosing one for himself.
