A few of the great moments in Sales history…
Remember to use your brain and think for yourself! Sales is about reading and reacting to each unique customer and their specific needs and not about trying to sell them a one-size-fits-all solution.
In Sales (as in Recruiting) we must ALWAYS be ready to adapt to each unique individual and situation we’re working with.
Look for opportunities to be flexible on the fly!
Be careful what you promise your customers because you always want to make sure you can deliver and follow-through!
A door-to-door Vacuum Cleaner Salesman manages to bull his way into a woman’s home in a rural area.
“This machine is the best ever!” he exclaims, while pouring a bag of dirt over the lounge floor.
The woman says she’s really worried it may not all come off, so the Salesman says, “If this machine doesn’t remove all the dust completely, I’ll lick it off myself.”
“Do you want ketchup on it?” she says, “we’re not connected for electricity yet!”

This is a good one from Work Joke! May we all consider this as it has both professional and eternal significance.
When a young salesman met his untimely end, he was informed that he had a choice about where he would spend his eternity: Heaven or Hell. He was allowed to visit both places, and then make his decision afterwards.
“I’ll see Heaven first,” said the salesman, and an angel led through the gates on a private tour. Inside it was very peaceful and serene, and all the people there were playing harps and eating grapes. It looked very nice, but the salesman was not about to make a decision that could very well condemn him to a life of musical produce.
“Can I see Hell now?” he asked. The angel pointed him to the elevator, and he went down to the Basement where he was greeted by one of Satan’s loyal followers. For the next half hour, the salesman was led through a tour of what appeared to be the best night clubs he’d ever seen. People were partying loudly, and having a, if you’ll pardon the expression, Hell of a time.
When the tour ended, he was sent back up where the angel asked him if he had reached a final decision.
“Yes, I have,” he replied. “As great as Heaven looks and all, I have to admit that Hell was more of my kind of place. I’ve decided to spend my eternity down there.”The salesman was sent to hell, where he was immediately thrown into a cave and was chained to a wall, and he was subjected to various tortures. “When I came down here for the tour,” he yelled with anger and pain, “I was shown a whole bunch of bars and parties and other great stuff! What happened?!”
The devil replied, “Oh, that! That was just the Sales Demo.”
