Sales Stature

Why are sales people not respected in the UK..?

Do we have a reputation for hard selling..?..Are sales people lieing manipulators..?

Is it a profession people do when they cannot become lawyers, accountants, bankers or surveyors…??

Are we our own worst enemies..?….”Dell” boys, Spivs..?

Surely we should be revered and worshipped by Financial Directors and Managing Directors for ” bringing in the bacon” and improving cash flow…

Observe the uncomfortable grimace of your Financial Director when you tell him that you (the sales team) pay his salary…!
