Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

I'm a sales person who is frequently invited in to appointments by business owners. Every now and then an owner will become irate because of the questions I'm asking. Some times I refused to get out of my chair when a business owner has asked me to leave. Today, a business owner threatened to call the police if I did not leave. Keep I mind that he invited me in. What would have happened to me if the police showed up? Am I legally required to leave? What if I refuse to leave and the owner and or employees touch me or try to pick me up and physically throw me out the door? Are they allowed to touch me?

They can terminate your invitation at any time, meaning you must leave when asked. The police can be called and you will be trespassed.

What is the point of not getting out of the chair? I can't imagine anyone buys your product/service after you act like that.
