Morphology
The meaning is directly and compositionally derived from 'sales' (relating to selling) + 'demonstrator' (someone who shows how something works): a demonstrator whose role is to promote or show products for sale. This attributive noun pattern is common in English and cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Sales demonstrator The term sales demonstrator comes from the simple picture of a person in a shop who 'shows' a product and explains how it works to help people 'buy'. The name joins sales, meaning selling, and demonstrator, meaning someone who shows, so it means a person whose job is to show products to customers to encourage them to 'buy'.
