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

Fourth in a series:

OK, Jim has landed an interview with a big mailing systems company.  His fake resume is ready to go, and he can almost taste the start of a new career in sales.

Now, comes the interview...and deciding what to wear.  For Jim, it was an easy decision:

"For the interview, I wore a blue velvet suit.  Looking back on it, I probably looked like f****** Liberace!  But at the time, that's all I had.  I had a blue velvet suit and a green velvet suit. 

"Remember, I was in the rock-n-roll business for years and years.  And that's what we wore.  When you got off the plane, went to a party, went to a club...wherever...you wore something flashy.  I was married to a former Playboy bunny, and we had gigs at the Playboy Mansion, and that's what we wore.  So I thought I would knock 'em out with one of my best suits for the interview.
