sales people = deceitful, liers, no consceince, no sympathy, very pushy, really opinionated, have no shame, and fake caring about people.
If you can posses all of the above mentioned characterestics, well then you're on your way to selling millions........Not trying to be mean but I worked a job where I was basically forced to being all of the above, which is why I couldn't take it there longer than 3 months......Im so glad I don't have to do that anymore.

A career in sales is a most rewarding and lucrative choice!
Every person has their own "style"....I've found the best way to excel in sales is to educate yourself (Zig Ziglar is #1, Mike Ferry for Real Estate, Tom Hopkins), sell a product or service that you believe in completely, be honest and forthright, learn how to handle objections, practice, practice, practice, and thank everyone for their business and referrals.
ALWAYS keep in touch with your customers/clients. You want them tied to you for life, and they will send you a stream of business!
Have a daily plan which includes a time set for prospecting....and stick to it. No prospects = No Business...make it a priority!
Before starting....read Dale Carnegie's "How To Win Friends and Influence People".
Enjoy your new way of life....sales is more fun and fulfilling than you can possibly imagine!

Check out Zig Ziegler, he has a pretty good handle on the subject.

You need to find the potential in what you sell, believe in it and be able to display it in an communicative manner to retain its buyers.
