A discussion about sales, sales tips and advice, and about those who land the deal

...you can always try this.

I shouldn't poke fun at the thought, I guess.  Especially since I found them by clicking on a Google ad on the LandingTheDeal site!  But, really...is this what it has come to? 

Here are some alternative ideas for becoming a better sales pro:

• Read good selling skills books.  I recommend Jeffrey Gitomer.
• Read good marketing books and blogs.  I recommend Seth Godin (and this blog, of course).
• Practice your approach.
• Practice handling objections.
• Work harder.
• Work smarter.
• Invest in your career - attend seminars, listen to CDs (unless they have a picture of a magician on the front), subscribe to newsletters. 

But that's just me...
