I have read from other people’s blogs, comparing honourable professions like financial advisors and salespeople.
Indeed, we have common attributes.
We have common similarities.
We work on ethics and we earn a living by recommending best solutions to our clients.
We fulfil our clients needs.
We provide good service to our clients.
Some of my clients tell me, the reason why they get the financial instruments from me, is because they can see passion burning from my eyes.
Indeed, they can always get financial instruments from those advisers who have been in business for over 20, 30 years, but they choose me, because they understand that I care for them, and I am only interested to recommend what I believe is BEST for them.
I declare all the charges involved, and they understand that I am earning a living out of this well honoured profession.
I give them good advice, assisting them in their planning to meet their financial objectives and motivate them to make decisions.
Decisions that they make, and they will live with it forever.
Decisions that they embraced, helping them to meet their objectives.
Decisions that they will appreciate.
At the end of the day. they will look at me and thank me for giving such a solid, yet simple financial recommendations.
I have clients who told me, that “I should have met you 5,10,15 years ago”.
I have clients who asked me. “When are you getting married? Do you have a girlfriend already?”
I have lots of clients who are really very, very good to me. 🙂
The bottom line is all of us are salespeople.
Be it you are a lawyer, you are a teacher, you are an accountant, you are a businessman…. , Come on…..
Touch your heart and tell yourself “I am indeed a salesperson in my profession. My duty is to convince myself, convince the people around me, of my capability to deliver value to others.”
Being in sales is also a honourable profession.
Yes!
I am talking from experience.
I have been in sales since I was a kid.
So do you.
Remember the days when you cried, grumbled when your parents refused to give the toy that you really want?
Remember the days when you are a toddler, being very cute, capturing the hearts of your parents?
Okay.
The verdict ends here.
All of us are salespeople, directly or indirectly.
Sales is a noble profession and no one should use it as a catalyst, to degrade other people’s professions! 🙂
