Sales Tweet #104 When Ernest Seller first heard about 'Dress For Success' he visited his wife's clothes closet.
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
As mentioned last week, Ernest loved ‘Procrastinate For Success’. On the other hand he was troubled by the concept ‘Dress For Success’. However, Ernest is no square. So, he visited his [saintly] wife’s closet to check out the dresses.
Update:
Don’t expect to see Ernest in a dress as he presses for success.
2 reasons:
1. none of his [saintly] wife’s dresses fit him...[Ernest is a brawny, bulging man]
2. none of his [saintly] wife’s dresses were plaid…[Ernest’s favourite colour]

Sales Tweet #101 Ernest Seller loves that Thought Post called ‘Procrastinate For Success’. His big arms embrace it.
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Of course, that doesn’t mean Ernest read the Thought Post. Ernest has no time to read. He did way too much of that while he was in school.
A friend mentioned '
Procrastinate For Success' and Ernest's nimble mind jumped all over it. In fact, he sees himself as a Master of procrastination. Been doing it all his life. Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow…or next week, or next month…or…

Sales Tweet #98 A sales teacher asked about 6 degrees of separation. Ernest replied, ""That happened to my shoulder once"".
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Yet another piece of proof…it makes no sense to go to these sales-training classes!
It’s a stretch of the imagination to think injured joints and limbs have anything to do with selling. Sure, you have to twist buyers’ arms from time to time. But, it’s just plain illegal to twist them so hard you separate them from their shoulders.
Every good sales person knows that.
Ernest better mention this to his boss when he gets back to the office. Oh, maybe not, that guy never listens anyhow.
