Spanish to English Bus/Financial Human Resources
A series of candidate profiles for possible employment

In a section explaining why this candidate is interested in working in the sales dept of the company in question

Además, en su opinión los productos de XXXXX tienen salida

Given that XXXXX is a multinational, saying thet their products "have potential" sounds patronising. Any other neat turns of phrase? I thought maybe "he believes in XXXXX's products" but that's twisting the original I feel

Discussion

Ronnie McKee Mar 27, 2009:
Sorry I meant the message for Willaim, the asker. William suggested "he believes in XXXXX's products" but was afraid it was twisting the original.
margaret caulfield Mar 27, 2009:
your idea Hi Ronnie. Who is this message meant for?
Ronnie McKee Mar 27, 2009:
your idea I like your solution the best. It really does mean that the candidate believes in the firm's products, and from the perspective of one who does heaps of candidate screening, it has the best ring to it, especially if the person is not an absolute expert in the particular market, else how could he know. What he knows is that he believes in the products, and that will be what's important to the company, not his opinion of their market position.

(the products) have an outlet/there is an outlet (for the products)

"Outlet" is also often used with regards to products.
Peer comment(s):

agree Veronica Terry : outlet means that there is a market for the goods or products. I think this is the best answer.
