I agree that there really is no magic in sales. Yes you have to be a people person, but more than that you have to have the drive and the persistence and dedication to not stop no matter how nasty the rejections can be. I laugh at the books and blogs where the so called sales 'experts' act like there is a method to the madness of sales. You know the old "to close the sale you must...." blah blah blah. I love sales for one reason. No one day is ever the same. I worked in factories when I was younger and the main thing it taught me in addition to the importance of education is that I love the unknown. I have no idea what somebody is going to say to me when they pick up that phone, and that is where the FUN is! I really like this blog post, very short and to the point.
