Hello,

Let me introduce myself, my name is Brandon Rogers and I am the Chief Manager of
the Department of employment in Onicks Group.

I found your resume at hotjob.com and it seems to me that you meet all our
requirements!

Our company is well-known not only in USA, but all over the world!
We deal mainly with financial services for buyers and sellers at online auctions
around the globe (closed commercial auctions (stock sales, business sales etc.)
where the number of buyers is limited and on ebay.com, amazon.com, yahoo.com -
well-known public online auctions).

I’m looking for a solid entry-level sales position. Given that I’m looking for entry-level, a strong training program is essential to me. While I don’t have experience in sales, you don’t need that for entry level sales positions, you simply need to be the type of person that can be good at sales, which I am fairly certain that I am.

Anyone know some good places to look in Chicago? Or even nationally?
Obviously if someone knows one that they are aware IS hiring, that’s great, but I simply want to know what some good ones are (as in good base+incentives, perks, etc). Chances are if you have 7+ years of sales experience you’re either applying to something above entry level, haven’t succeeded enough in sales to qualify for a higher position, OR are too experienced for companies to want to hire you (there is such a thing, and that’s tough, so I hope for your sake that’s not the problem). Thanks for your input though, and I’m sorry you got laid off. I had that happen earlier this year too, but it was a blessing in disguise. Maybe yours will be too.
This isn’t directed at just you, Kapn, but seriously…I wish someone would actually focus on my original question rather than the question people seem to THINK I’m asking. I’m not asking, “hey what’s a dream sales company that will pay me 100K in my first year that’s hiring now and easy to get a job at?”

I am a scheduling coordinator and I am very new to the game. I am doing a horrible job right now and I really want to better. I’m working for a really nice little family owned company who knows my dad, loves me and pays me a ridiculously high $12 plus $75 commission on any appointment I set that results in a sale. I do not want to get fired! I got zero appointments last week and zero again today! I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I am far from an expert at this and there’s basically no training program here and no real system even set up for how exactly to do this whole operation. What I’m trying to do is set appointments for a VOIP telecom company. I’m calling business to business. I know nothing about getting past the gatekeeper. My only method is to pretend that I have spoken with the decision maker previously and he has asked me to call back. I have a few good rebuttals for when I actually get to talk to a decision maker, but I rarely get far enough to use them.
I guess the things I need the most help with are getting past the gatekeeper and maybe some tips for leaving answering machine messages, because I currently never leave a message and I feel like it might help sometimes if I did. I also am not working off of the greatest script, but our whole team is trying to write up a better one right now. The opening is the most important part of the script, and I think that is the part where we’ve been the most lacking so far.
I know there are tons of people who can help on this one! I’m so inexperienced that I barely know what to ask. Just help me out with some of your best tips if you can, please!

A young man married a beautiful woman who had previously divorced ten
husbands. On their wedding night, she told her new husband,

“Please be gentle; I’m still a virgin.”

“What?” said the puzzled groom. “How can that be if you’ve been married
ten
times?”

“Well, husband #1 was a Sales Representative; he kept telling me how
great
it was going to be.”

i am looking for a couple of traits to implement in my work network to improve communication.

i work in college admissions sales and my network is trying to develope a new training program, but no one is really taking the time to create this or even communicate thier ideas!

Since my beautiful baby girl has been born, I haven’t found a job that can actually support me working AND paying for a babysitter.
I’ve had several years of studio photography experience, and that is primarily what I’ve done for the last several years. I have a few Paul C. Buff Alien Bees lights that do the trick for most lighting situations, although… I wish I could afford better equipment.
My husband got out of the military last July, and since then, I’ve done a few freelance photography jobs on my own. Mainly family and maternity/newborn studio.
My main problem is that I’m not a salesperson, and that I SUCK at marketing myself. We moved to a new state. I had 5 or so family shoots around Christmas time that made some money, but since then have been unable to pick up shoots off of craigslist alone.
I had a job offer the other day to be an apprentice to a studio that is in a (somewhat) nearby mall. I know that I can take better photos than those that are on this private mall studios website. Should I go with it, in the interest of keeping in practice, or do you think that I MIGHT have what it takes to make it on my own?
Here is my website: http://www.yourportraitsbydesign.com/

I SUCK as a salesperson.
When I shoot on my own, I generally sell the whole session on disc for $100.
I really thought I’d get better responses, but then… I just post on craistlist and don’t really know anyone around here in order to spread by word of mouth.
