In Jill Konrath's opinion, the salesperson is the primary differentiator in purchases today. As products and services become increasingly commoditized, buyers are aware they can get a similar offering from another company. But what they can't get from just any vendor is the same sales experience, which is created by the sales rep. This means salespeople have almost complete control of their own destinies.

If you want to start a meaningful conversation over cold email, you have to give the recipient a really good reason to hit the respond button. In other words, you need to start a conversation to which they can actually contribute. Whether it’s highlighting a benefit you know the other person will need or posing a question they won’t read elsewhere, an effective message is all about the potential client and building a relationship with them.

When marketers like us create landing pages, write email copy, or design call-to-action buttons, it can be tempting to use our intuition to predict what will make people click and convert. But basing marketing decisions off of a "feeling" can be pretty detrimental to results. Rather than relying on guesses or assumptions to make these decisions, you're much better off running conversion rate optimization (CRO) tests -- sometimes called A/B tests.

Most people would describe me as naturally charismatic, funny, and full of energy. I’m a natural salesperson. I can make people excited about ideas and believe in themselves. I can help them see a better future. And because of that, you’d never know that I get periodically depressed. But it’s true. It happens every two years, although I don’t know how to describe it.

You have a tenure problem. Per Business Insider , out of the top 10 largest tech companies, only Facebook breaks the two-year mark (2.02) in average tenure. Uber falls at 1.23, Snap at 1.62, and Airbnb at 1.64. I wonder how long the average onboarding period is per company? Or how long it takes to fill those roles after they leave? The more you look into it, the more you realize the amount of employee ROI companies are losing from employees frequently moving is exorbitant.

The best salespeople are driven, not desperate. Obviously, you don’t want to be perceived as “desperate.” Not by your friends, your co-workers, or your romantic partner. And hopefully, never by your clients. After all, customers often arrive at a purchasing decision based more on how they feel about the salesperson and less about the actual solution.

Show, don't tell. In business, that translates as, “Where are the metrics?” Sales reps can clearly observe that social selling works, but their bosses want metrics.

Everyone says that time is money. But this statement is especially true for sales reps. Commission-based jobs know no time restraints. Hustling is good. But there’s also a point of diminishing returns. Another 80 hour week doesn’t necessarily mean you’re crushing it. It probably means you’re taking meetings you shouldn’t. You’re doing too many repetitive admin tasks.
