Make the calls. Make the calls. Make the calls.
This week Biff and Jacques welcome longtime friend Al to chat his decades long career of selling happiness. Al is the quintessential, old school sales guy whose products and work ethics turned out to be recession proof and even covid proof. He specialized in selling licensed character goods to the party stores and dollar tree type stores.
Al talks his biggest sellers, the can’t miss products that did miss and the “who would by this junk” that flew off the shelves.
Al liked his profession. He liked who he worked with and for … sure curve balls now and then … but overall, this chat exemplifies how if you like what you do for a living, life ain’t all that bad.
Personal note: It’s pals like Al and talks like this that make me super home sick for So. Cal and FNH.
