Summary
The application concludes that an employee shouldn’t try to talk someone into buying a client’s product if that person has told the employee that he doesn’t want to. The principle provides the premise: employees shouldn’t do anything that would predispose people to dislike their agencies’ clients.
Missing Connection
The application describes what employees shouldn’t do in a specific scenario, but the principle doesn’t mention that scenario. What does the principle say about things an employee shouldn’t do? Well, they shouldn’t do anything that predisposes people to dislike the agencies’ clients. So the correct answer will tell us that the scenario in the conclusion (trying to convince someone to buy a product when they’ve said they don’t want to) leads to the result in the principle (predisposing that person to dislike the agencies’ clients).
We can simplify the conditional conclusion by kicking up the sufficient condition and taking for granted that the employee is trying to convince the person on the phone to buy a product, despite that person stating that he doesn’t want to.
