Sales Tweet #175

by Rick Baker
On Mar 18, 2011
Sales Tweet #175 Ernest Seller's favourite letter is "I"...what a coincidence - the same as his favourite topic.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
So, it would be wrong to say "There is no I in Ernest". [Mr Kaye made this up…actually, Ernest doesn’t have a favourite letter. Ernest does have a favourite number…it's #1.]

Sales Tweet #174

by Rick Baker
On Mar 17, 2011
Sales Tweet #174 Do you sometimes act like a 6-yr-old soccer player, focusing on the ball instead of the goal?
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Not a bad metaphor. While it is a joy to watch those little players do that in sports games it is no where near as enjoyable watching sales people do it. Just ask a sales manager.

Sales Tweet #173

by Rick Baker
On Mar 16, 2011
Sales Tweet #173 Ernest Seller admitted to his Boss “One time I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken”.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
On the other hand, Ernest still isn't 100% sure about that.

Sales Tweet #171

by Rick Baker
On Mar 14, 2011
Sales Tweet #171 Some sales people are like ship captains in the fog...repeatedly blowing their horns.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Don’t blow your own horn. That's an old piece of communication wisdom. It appeared in popular-quotes books almost 100 years ago.

Sales Tweet #170

by Rick Baker
On Mar 11, 2011
Sales Tweet #170 Ernest Seller thinks he is really bright...the Boss thinks Ernest needs more polish.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
So the Boss says to Ernest “you could use some polish”. And Ernest just shakes his head and points out he is wearing white, patent leather shoes.
