Successful selling is a WIT profession. Here are some examples of doing WIT: Making calls – Regardless of how tired you are, how much you just sold last week, how difficult it is to handle the rejection – if you are going to be successful in selling, you have to pick up the phone and call someone. WIT = Whatever It Takes!

Everyone in selling or managing a sales team knows that one of the most important keys to selling more is getting in front of more people. It reminded me of a pivotal conversation about prospecting that I had years ago when I was new to selling. Duh is right. I was talking to a prospect yesterday about this very thing.

I got into the life insurance business as an agent with National Life of Vermont. Apparently, they didn’t want their prospects to think they were trying to “sell” insurance. As I began working with companies helping them improve the skills and processes of their sales teams, I experienced the same job title “cover up”.

Not to mention that it’s not likely that a great rep will be selling the same thing at the end of their career as when they started. A place that pays you more to sell stuff may end up costing you more to live there. A good way to tell is to pair up the salary of a sales rep and the average salary in that state.

At least that was the case in 1983 when I was selling Nautilus exercise equipment, and it still is today even as president of Anthony Cole Training Group. I grew up in a sales world where, if you called yourself a sales person, you prospected for leads. Sales people have to prospect! Honestly, I have to say I''m confused by this.

Learning about sales and selling is one of the things I enjoy most about what I do. I thought that was selling. In 1987, when I entered the life insurance business with David Zimmerman at National Life of Vermont, I learned that selling life insurance was truly "selling" and my experience with Nautilus had been merely "order-taking".
