Sales Tweet #213 Boss to Ernest Seller, "What we've got here is…failure to communicate".
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Yes – Ernest ended up in The Boss’s office…another performance review. This time The Boss was in a pretty good mood. So, he decided not to be too harsh with Ernest. He didn’t even raise his voice. The Boss limited his comments to a few of his favourite lines from prison movies. Then he added the following note to our Ernest’s file: “Ernest should go far…please”.

Sales Tweet #210

Sales Tweet #210 Ernest Seller loves sales. He also loves dogs. He named his dog 'Commission'.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Now Ernest is pretty proud of the creative thought behind his dog’s curious name. Whenever Ernest sees his loving pet he says, “Come Commission”. He figures that kills 2 birds with one stone: (1) his loving 4-legged friend bonds with him and (2) he doesn’t have to do any more sales self-talk for the rest of the day.

Sales Tweet #207 When Ernest told Mr. Kaye he dreamt he did a Million $ deal Mr. Kaye said, “No wonder you look so tired”.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
You remember Mr. Kaye…Ernest Seller's favourite Client…did I ever tell you Mr. Kaye worked as a lumberjack before he became Ernest Seller's #1 Client. It's true. Mr. Kaye worked as a lumberjack…but he couldn’t hack it…so they gave him the axe.
