We have a relationship with our customer, and that relationship translates into sales.

If you want to be the best salesperson, first you must be the best person.

I have always said that everyone is in sales. Maybe you don't hold the title of salesperson, but if the business you are in requires you to deal with people, you, my friend, are in sales.

Salesmanship is limitless. Our very living is selling. We are all salespeople.

I think skilled salesmen have the ability to work out who you are and pick out aspects of your personality. They almost manipulate you, in a way, to make you buy their product.

Really good customer service will deliver sales. You are training salesmen to give the best possible advice and then to achieve the sale. People actually like you to ask for a sale because it shows you value their business.

I like to think of sales as the ability to gracefully persuade, not manipulate, a person or persons into a win-win situation.

Salesmen always need something to sell.

But on a utilitarian level, I realize that to try to accomplish the greatest good for the greatest number of people, sometimes we have to become salesmen for what we believe, and part of being a salesman is being effective.

My retail partners, they are my brand ambassadors. They're the ones who are selling the shoes to women.
