A Test of Sales Character
| |
| I can honestly say I did not enjoy the early years of my sales career. I initially found it hard, relentless and sometimes really distressing. I was asked to do things I didn't always understand that significance of. I often felt overly scrutinised by the constant monitoring of activity and performance by my managers. I worked in tough markets in tough times and sometimes wondered if it was worth it. I felt under pressure and sometimes wished I didn't have to sell at all, however I came to realise that this tough introduction to selling was what I really needed to prepare me for the future. In the words of Robert Louis Stevenson "Everyone lives by selling something'.
Over the years as my sales career evolved, I began to learn a lot more about myself. |

Writing Skills Training And Media Training Clearly AIMed At Successful Business Communication
| |
| • Improving writing skills won't happen without a firm grasp of the premise that "writing is thinking." The same goes for presentation skills. Whether preparing a speech or briefing or drafting a written communication -- an email, memo or report -- effective business communication is achievable only if you take advantage of the opportunity that writing, as opposed to a spontaneous conversation, offers.
• Taking careful AIM (audience, intent and message) is the focus of media training for anyone who wants to make marketing-oriented business communication a success.

Older Employees in Big Demand!!
| |
| Employers are facing a critical workforce shortage in the not too distant future. There are fewer younger workers entering the US workforce than there are older workers leaving: in fact the ratio is close to 1:3. And this labor shortage is predicted for all industries, from construction and manufacturing, to technology and health care.
At the same time, the definition of retirement is changing; more baby boomers are redefining traditional retirement planning by working longer. Sound like a formula for a great and continuing partnership between you and your (or another...) company? |

What skills should a sales director possess?
| |
| Being a sales director is one of the toughest jobs around, or it can be. If the company were a car, the sales director would be responsible of planning the trip, keeping the driver from making a wrong turn while on the trip, making sure that the car doesn't run out of gas and doing all of this while keeping the kids in the back seat happy and not throwing things at the other passengers.... And somewhere along the way someone needs to stop and go to the bathroom. |

Director Dinner Discussions of the SAN kind
| |
| Im sure the switching folks from the various camps all have their different views, and if you follow marketing fundamentals, as a vendor you want to position yourself as something new and different to own a market or category. Hence when the discuss turned to why these new platforms were or were not directors and how they were something more, it reminded me of where we were in the industry about seven years ago when the director vs. switch debates raged. So with that in mind, when I was asked as to what I thought a director was vs. a switch, my answer is this:
