Sales Tweet #336

Sales Tweet #336 Last Halloween Ernest put his dog Commission in a cat costume. He couldn’t find Commission for a week.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
When he isn’t dressed up as one, Commission loves cats. He loves to annoy them and chase them. I guess you could say Commission is a dog’s dog.

Sales Tweet #335 As a kid, Don Trodden was the wheelbarrow in those races…people been pushing him around ever since.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
You know, Don Trodden is still traumatised about those children’s games at summer picnics. The wheelbarrow race was bad enough…but…running a race in a sack! He has been worried about getting sacked ever since.

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

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”.
