Sales Tweet #334 A little sales advice: Under-Promise and Over-Deliver …Under-Talk & Over-Listen
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
While people are very busy, somehow they manage to remember the promises you didn’t deliver on. And, if people are talking there is a reason for it. I mean, people have reasons for saying things even if the things they are saying are not on the same topic as the things you are thinking while you could be listening while they are talking. Rather than thinking all that stuff by yourself and waiting for them to stop talking so you can get your thoughts delivered…listen.

Sales Tweet #333 Mr. Kaye had a really weird dream last night. http://www.spiritedsalestweets.ca
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Mr. Kaye dreamt he was a young man again, working in the logging camp. He had just finished chopping down a big tree and he was looking at the remains, counting the rings to see how old the tree was. While he looked down he heard a deep but soft voice…coming from the roots. He placed his head down on the ground so he could hear the talking-tree roots better. The tree roots said, “Young man, I see you want to know my age…I am 103 years old. Do you have any other questions?” Being youthful and fun-loving the young Mr. Kaye quipped, “Do you know what a tree and a dog have in common?” The tree was silent for two minutes then said, “No, I must admit you've stumped me”.

Constructive Criticism – what an oxymoron!
