QUOTE:  “Socialism (communism is a form of socialism) never works because it does not allow people to seek & build on opportunities to make their lives better, but instead stifles the human spirit by keeping people to think towards the least common denominator so all can feel they are ‘equal’ with the masses”

BUSINESS QUOTES:  As a sales professional, I love to continue to learn. In fact I will never stop learning all kinds of neat things until the end of my last breath on this earth as I pass on. Here are some quotes that help me get back to basics / Business 101 sales.

The world is around 71 percent water. The rest are potential clients.

Nothing happens unless a sale is completed.  In the world we live in nothing happens until a person says yes to sales offer.

Without a sale nobody else can do their job.

Doug GullesonAttitude is the sum total of my thoughts.

Training is never over.

Selling is a process – not an event.

The selling profession is not a job, it is not a career, but it is a lifestyle.

Sales are the most secure job when you are doing it correctly.

 

Change how you are – not who you are.

Selling is a process, it is not an event. www.douggulleson.com

You can chop a tree down with a hammer, but if you have a sharp axe you can do it faster.  (Application – Sometimes you can get sales without being a skilled sales person, but being skilled will help you get more sales faster.)

“If you say it, they (the client) doubt it.  If they say it, it is true.”

The Art of Selling is just the basic fundamentals of communication.

When you understand and use good sales techniques you will never be unemployed.

 From the movie – God’s not Dead:

Thought one:  From a Christian:  Do you hate God?  Atheist:  Yes. Christian: How can you hate God when you say He does not exist?

Thought two: If God does not exist, then everything is permissible.  Then there are no rules and no moral absolutes.  And, if one says there are moral absolutes without a God, who makes the rules of what is moral and what is immoral?

Thought three:  Christian to the atheist:  How can you hate someone if they don’t exist?   So an atheist who hates God is not an atheist, but is anti-theos.

Thought four:  With no God, there is no reason to be moral.

Police lives matter!
