HTSS143 - How tp prepare to be recruited for sales jobs - Scott Sylvan Bell

<p>How to prepare the be recruited:</p> <p>If you are in sales long enough you will be approached… especially when you are good.</p> <p>Know this is a sales process</p> <p>You will be told everything “good” and “perfect”</p> <p>Be careful of too much upside. If the upside is sold more than the commission there may be a problem.</p> <p>People who sell hope may just be selling a dream and trying to recruit you.</p> <p>I wish I would have seen this pattern earlier in my life. Be willing to say “no” – too much upside is a sale and could be a danger sign and really could be desperation to get you in or a cover up for the problems</p> <p>If its too good to be true there would be people lining up to sell</p> <p>All jobs and employers have a problem – all companies have problems</p> <p>Know what you want now (make a list)</p> <p>What would you ask for?</p> <p>What’s important to you</p> <p>Reverse engineer every problem you could face in the industry and make a list. You want pain points in the day.</p> <p>You are just as much in an interview as they are – ask really good questions. All types, Yes and no as well as situational</p> <p>Be willing to say no – not all salespeople are good with getting or giving rejection. If it’s a no tell them and get on with your life</p>
