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.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being a salesperson prepares you for just about everything in business: how to listen, empathize, and persuade; when to back off and when to step in; and, of course, how to close.
Salesmanship is limitless. Our very living is selling. We are all salespeople.
If you want to be the best salesperson, first you must be the best person.
We are all in the business of sales. Teachers sell students on learning, parents sell their children on making good grades and behaving, and traditional salesmen sell their products.
The reality is, I've started multiple companies, so actually I'm probably more of a product/creative person than I am sales. Although I can do both.
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.
To me, job titles don't matter. Everyone is in sales. It's the only way we stay in business.
I love working with customers. Sales has really influenced everything I do. It has instilled in me the important traits of operating with a sense of urgency and listening to people.
We have a relationship with our customer, and that relationship translates into sales.
I like to think of sales as the ability to gracefully persuade, not manipulate, a person or persons into a win-win situation.
