I love being sold. The other day this kid knocks on my door and I swear he could have been 15 but that's beside the point. He starts going into his sales pitch and I have to admit, it was CLEAN. I stood there and simply smiled. He probably thought I was some weird guy just standing there with a big grin on my face while he went on about bug spray, but he never said anything. After a few minutes, I stopped him and said, "Look, I have no interest in your product my man but I'd love to film you doing your pitch." We both decided that was kind of an odd thing so we parted ways with a handshake and left it at that.


I know, I didn't buy the product but I still loved what I heard. It's a great feeling to be sold and it's an even a better feeling to be sold and then have the product or service deliver on its promise. That doesn't happen very often so when it does, you better be happy. When it comes to sales productivity tools, the mantra often seems "over promise and under deliver." Sad, but the truth hurts. Thankfully, some tools are living up to the hype and each one of these have found their way into my daily routine. Since they are helpful to me, I thought they might be helpful to you. Check them out and see for yourself.
