Are You a HOTTIE?
I'm not. My wife probably thinks so (or not.) My mom surely does. My girls??? But in my heart of hearts I know I'm not.
If you are, it will greatly advance your career as a Promotional Products professional. Maybe you're really tall, really great looking, or very unusual in some way. You have a leg up on the rest of us normal (read dull looking) people.
Sure, I've made a good living in sales because of my . . (no bragging in this column.) But if I were starting all over today, I would either get stretched, have plastic surgery, or come up with a unique persona. The last option being cheaper and less painful, it appeals to me the most.
One salesmen I know has these amazing belt buckles he wears. Another brings doughnuts every time. If she forgets, she gets hooted. Many over the years had a joke or two each visit. Still another still wears $300 suits when everyone else is in Hawaiian shirts. Being in the cheap plastic stuff business, maybe you should always bring a wild and wacky give-away to leave behind.
You get the point. Your ideas, your prices, your charm, your wit will go a long way. But it is truly amazing how important it is to be remembered.
