Casual Articles - Why Unemployed Experienced Salespersons Can't Keep Work
For years we have all been going to the local carwash and we conveniently tip the towel spinning driers who do not speak any English a dollar or two depending on their performance and the quality of the drying they have done. Yet have we considered that they are illegal aliens? Certainly we have or should have. Indeed
I did meet one gentleman, however, that did have sales experience and was the only one in all of the interviews that relished the thought of being mentored by someone that had more experience then himself. For this pe
If you type into the search engines the phrase ‘cleaning tips’ you get a choice of something like 14,800,000 websites to choose from and many of those websites will redirect you to scores of other websites. There are specific sites that are dedicated to giving hints, advice and tips on a variety of topics with seemingl
I heard everything from "I was the greatest that ever lived and my boss was jealous of my success" , "I have been selling for 15 years and I have sold everything", "I had to leave because my boss was hitting on me", "I didn't like my manager", "the training was no good" to "too many hours"...and the list goes on.
The problem was all of these people had two or three common denominators. First and most obvious, THEY WERE UNEMPLOYED! Why? Well, some of the many excuses I heard had merit, while others were ridiculous.
I have been in sales/management 40 years now and I have only filled out one application...the one for my first sales job! If you are so damn good why are you out of work? My boss is jealous of my success...give me a break! You mean you didn't know how to incorporate your boss into your great success! I've sold EVERYTHING...We all know this one...a Jack of ALL trades and good at NONE!
Another common denominator that I found was only one of these people took any ownership that some of it might have been their fault! It was amazing! Not only that, not one of these people were trainable! They were all set in their ways. Now, some of them gave tremendous lip service, but when the rubber met the road they couldn't begin to take on new ideas or even learn to correct the things that flawed their last job performance.

So, your life is taking a different direction?Maybe you're ready for a new challenge or you were the fortunate victim of a corporate drive-by (aka "downsizing"). Notice I said fortunate. It didn't feel that way initially, but soon after I came to see the blessing in the situation. Either way, it's time to

Once there was a time in business when you could experience a change and then return to a period of relative stability. Nowadays, changes occur constantly - one on top of another. We need to acknowledge change and realize that change is a continuous journey - a way of life rather than a one-time event that can be liv

The collective participation in professional networking has reached an all-time high. Never has there been more energy nor more opportunities to promote one’s products or services. And yet, most business professionals are in such a hurry to garner new business that they rarely take the time to assess the tools they’r
I did meet one gentleman, however, that did have sales experience and was the only one in all of the interviews that relished the thought of being mentored by someone that had more experience then himself. For this person I say "The Specialist" will GUARANTEE your success! I will put MY name and reputation on it! For all you other experienced, unemployed sales persons, a word to the wise. When you are applying for a position, if you want to be taken seriously don't sell all your accomplishments to the point you look silly being unemployed. Let your hopefully new employer know right up front you ARE WILLING TO LEARN! Remember he has a job, YOU Don't! I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised with your results and you won't be looking for a new job anytime soon.
