Are You Having Fun?

If you aren’t having fun when you are talking to clients, why not? Remember that as a Salesman your job isn’t “hard work” – you’re not out building skyscrapers or paving roads. The heaviest thing you pick up is a phone generally. The biggest muscle you work is your brain.
Let your brain get out and run for a while sometimes, have fun with your clients. Make some jokes, get them laughing, tell them a self deprecating story, have fun. Nothing builds a relationship faster than shared laughter.
Very true. I’m lucky in that I have a very solid tech background, but I can communicate with people that don’t. And yes, it should always be fun to work with clients. If not, you’re doing it wrong.
