What is his pretext? Time for the AAA...AAA? His pretext is he wants to wait to buy a more expensive bed later, and that they all feel the same to him anyway. Normally I'm not even annoyed with refunds, but I stayed late and basically took a huge risk on the price to close the deal. Depending on how you look at it, he got a better deal than I can get myself or give family.

Damn guest from last night is comming in to cancel. Won't give me the real objection. Damn.

Wouldn't stop me.Herpes never did. :rimshot:

One of the guys I ride dirt bikes with works for Caterpillar doing that. Travels all over the world.Be a rep for that company that makes those crazy production line robot arms. I was working with the Kuka rep yesterday, just sold 2 of his robots.Difficulty is you are in MN. Probably need to think biotech consultative sales. Hell I may join you. Hell yeah. Biotech is dope.

I'd agree with that. Kick ass where you are now so the resume brings you where you need to go. I'm hesitant to recommend my industry as it is inbred and doesn't have a lot of upside, but there are others that need very similar skills.I didn't really realize these jobs existed. That seems thick of me, and is. After talking to you even I didn't really add it up that those jobs are out there. A buddy suggested me looking into it, and after a little research it is in demand and most of the jobs are taken by late 50 year olds. In some studies they expecta 20-30% iincrease in demand in the next 5 years. I read that as, get in ASAP, bust your Fucking hump, and then place myself as management. I was always nervous that these jobs required more lead acquisition. It turns out that isn't so. My brain is just set up to think about details like an engineer, but my whole life has been problem solving, even in HR. And then using communication skills to translate problem solving into earning business.

Working for a company like caterpillar would be great. Anyone really, just so long as the science and engineering is awesome, I will be happy. Every company needs to sell stuff. I might as well be the guy doing it.

Damn... Phone cut half my post. Anyway, Mr E350 just needed something he could latch onto to make sense of things. That is the real art in selling. Helping the customer to understand and let them feel in charge. If they do, then it was their idea to buy. If you get really lucky they tell you they want to buy and you don't even have to ask them.

Have you ever read "what every body is saying?" It's about body language. Pretty good book, definitely inline with your work. I have not. The tough part about body language is that sometimes someone crossing their arms and leaning away just has a cold. But I do use the basics just because law of averages works in favor for me if I take it into consideration.

Today a guy asked me how to go about deciding on what mattress to buy. He had been drilling me with questions. He didn't care about what he slept on, but the wife had pain. He was the decision maker though. Really odd customer dynamics with this couple. His question of how to buy a bed was absurd. Most likely he was getting worn out and just wanted to grind me down until negotiations. He was just honestly tired, and frustrated. So I flipped the skript and said it can be tough, "how did you go about buying your car?". He drove up in a brand new E350 with the sport package.

In sales the most important thing is to have the ability to wax poetically when needed, but to spend more time asking questions and earning trust. Then following through honestly. I am given to asking questions back when a guest asks me a question once I have developed rapport. Usually they don't even know what or how to ask something, and the information they want has nothing to do with the question they asked. So leading the sales process by helping the customer to feel in charge is a big part of it. Active listening is exhausting. And paying attention to signals can be tough. Most people cannot do it in a professional setting at all.

Fuck an aloe plant.

I should be working elsewhere. I'm looking into engineering fields to be a sales engineer. I'm not sure what industry I want to be in. But I really should be working with bigger deals that require more consultation. My love for all things that are pushing technology forward, fast learning skills, and instinctive and trained sales skills could make me more money. They could also help companies who need something get what they need. Spending most of my life analyzing situations and drawing out real concerns, and then objections later is a huge boon. Using analogy and having a verbose lexicon helps to explain things and how what I can will help them.

Yeah use it to your advantage while you can. Is there more room in the company to continue moving up?Yes, in a few ways. #1 Classic upgrade would be to become an area manager(no bonus but you get to be in a really bitchin store and get the bonus from said bitchen store. Also a choice in your assistant manager.) And then work to be a DM. If a DM role is available it could mean in a new state, and so I would not be able to take it. We are opening up 13 more stores in MN maybe, so that could absorb 2 more DM positions. I would be last on the list. #2 The company decides I am an amazing trainer. The hire me on to do a traveling "ground school" training program. It is an "advanced" sales class. Really helpful, and that is unusual. This is the least likely to happen, but might make the happiest. #3 I just kick ass at being a trainer and be the #2 in a Fucking awesome store. This would probably be the biggest pay jump. Could easily swing from 50 to 90k based on the store.

I walked in and asked if she was sleeping. I just got growled at. Remind me tomorrow and I will text her for what she knows. She is still looking into it.

LMAO. I would be texting you the info from the ER as they removed either a .308, a bowtie knife, a .45, or a pile of buckshot from my nut sack.

I will be trying to break records. I don't know if I even posted it but they are looking at me to be a trainer. It doesn't pay more but it might let me leverage my location to be in a better store. My new DM, who I have had trouble with, told me he is looking at me for doing the training for maybe the next set of trainees. He just wants more from me for store execution. 3 promotions in 6 months is nice to have on a resume if I decide I need to move on......

If you have more info on that send me a pm, or email it to me. Definitely interested. Otherwise I'll be Googling: "college grants not required to pay back, volunteer work" for hours. I will ask her for more info when I talk to her. She is zZzzzZ

You should bankroll me. I'll learn the trade, take over the job, give you 10% of the salary and you can then be freed up to do it for another company.

Certain grants will allow you to pay on your loans for 5-10 years or some shit and then they forgive everything left. My wife was researching it as we now run the nonprofit she might be able to get in on that deal.

I closed every real deal I made today after close of business. I did hook my cousin up today though with a friend's and family deal. She walked out of there at less than half the sticker. It was one of those " I will ask for forgiveness" deals. I can always say I didn't see the margin correctly. Scored a layaway at about 8:10 and a really weird ticket that might be below margin even though it said I was legit. Volume volume volume. Labor day weekend is the toughest weekend. Uber busy and I take it in the pants for 90% of the deals. But the check is fat usually. This store seems really slow for my skill set, but last year it was #2 for the weekend. It didn't have my same shop down the street last year, but still. I am hopefull.

That keep spinning when you stop.

On dubs.

Don't spend your money on student loans. Just volunteer for a few years and your loans are paid off. Seriously. Pluss you need a Benzito

Foils?
