It's a numbers game. That is what you hear all the time in most sales literature and training. Basically, it means there is no real way to determine who is going to buy and who isn't so you just need to keep looking, and asking, and eventually you'll find the one that will buy. Quite frankly I find that idea an insult to intelligence. Yea I understand the logic it just seems more like something the upper level executives of an organization say to keep the idiot sales force plodding along. It's the same logic used by Generals in the military. Throw enough troops at the problem and surely enough will survive to achieve the objective. Sales is the only aspect of an organization where failure on such a large scale is tolerated. Think about it. In the manufacturing side, would they ever accept a 20% success ratio where 80% of the things you made were defective? Would even the mail room accept that only 20% of the mail they send out gets to its intended target. Enough said, I could go on all day...sales is just a shit job for people with marginal intelligence and a desire to have their self worth affirmed regularly by strangers.
hiker alone accept the sounds of the dark woods. Boon, Cartoons, cartoonist for hire, boondawgoggle, doodles, One Guy Drawing It is without a doubt my long held aspiration to thru hike the AT (Appalachian Trail). I wanted to share this one Thru Hiker's Blog. This young lady, trail name Wired, just finished her 2185 mile hike yesterday after 111 days on the trail. She updated a blog daily with wit, candor, and pictures sharing her day to day trials, tribulations (like her monthly periods) and triumphs along with the characters and players that make an AT thru hike an unique experience. Yesterday's completion of the AT makes her a triple crown long hiker having previously completed the CDT (Continental Divide Trail) and PCT (Pacific Coast Trail). I encourage you to start at Day One and make reading her blog the daily start to your day for the next 111 days.
