Existential doubt. Virtue and vice. Business. What do the above mentioned things have in common? They appear to fall into dissimilar categories. Existential doubt seems to hail from the field of philosophy. Vice and virtue could be topics discussed in a psychological overview of human behavior. Business is about the exchange of goods and services for money. What do these things have in common? It is true, business is an activity in which goods and services are offered, at a price. If someone wants the things we are selling, and has the means, they buy them. Typically, business is an organized activity. But most of all, business is, at its most basic, a human activity.

Romance, like sales, is a persuasive process. Sales is persuasion for money. Romance is persuasion for love.
From a male perspective, the romantic process usually proceeds as follows: guy meets gal and develops feelings for her; consequently, he sets out to have her fall in love with him; his ultimate aim being that they end up together. For how long depends.
This togetherness might be of the boyfriend/girlfriend variety, the husband/wife variety or something less long term.
Romance is not for the fainthearted. It can be tough stuff. Think about romance in the context of its persuasive cousin, sales. Many people do not go into sales because they believe they're not good verbal communicators. Still more individuals avoid sales because they do not feel comfortable being "pushy." [Good sales people are not pushy, but let's leave that for another article.]
More than anything else, the majority of individuals do not go into sales - or stay in the selling profession- because they cannot deal with the frequent rejection the sales process typically engenders. Write a comment |
