How to get better at sales
1. Listen 4x more than you talk (80%/20%).
2. Know that empathy is everything. And practice it.
3. Focus on understanding their problems before you say a word about your solution.
4. Related: know where they want to go. Otherwise, you'll both be lost.
5. Do what you said you'll do when you said you'll do it.

Marketing and advertising will go down in history as just as primitive as hunting and gathering. But a shit ton nastier.
I’m practicing empathy at this very moment by trying to understand how you can understand so bewilderingly little about the exchange of value between humans.
The term "salesman" has a decades, if not centuries, long list of negative and hilarious connotations. And they are all true.
Who hurt you?
Not me. I am a privileged nomad. I have empathy for the billions who have been screwed by the market based society and salesmen.
Ohhh, I see. You’re just another simple commie troll. 🤡 Into the mute bin with you.
All right, remember, Marxism is eliminating the state. Late stage capitalism evolved in pure corporate fascism, quite a while ago.
Spot on, great list. Id also say, anectodally...pick up your phone ! Cant believe how many times the person to get my business is the one that actually picked up the phone or called me back that day.
