As entry number two in the soon-to-be-officially-namedThe Simplenomics Guide to Desirable Traits For Sales People or Mike’s Simple Guide To Desirable Traits For Sales People, I bring you…
Enthusiasm
Are you genuinely and simply slobberknockingly happy with your job, position or career ? Or are you just goin’ thru the motions.
I love what I do. I could sell, market, teach and educate all day, every day and be happy. I don’t even want to really ever retire. I want to sell !
Enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm, so it’s easy for me to get my customers excited about their purchase.
Without enthusiasm, I’d be an advertisement, not a salesman.
With enthusiasm, I try every day to move a mountain … and then try to sell it !
If you don’t have it, start trying to find something you actually like to do and then find someone willing to pay you to do it.
That would simply be called success.

Yes, you’re exactly right. I used to be a sales rep for T-Mobile and there was a big difference in being excited for the customer making the purchase than just going through the motions. If you’re excited about the product you’re selling, the customer will feed off of that and almost unknowingly get excited to and start to think “This is a really good deal/product/etc.”
Hey Deron,

Dang ! Now I’m gonna be envious for days !
