Month End is not a pretty time in sales.

The Golden Rule in Sales – “There is no tomorrow, only today!” How I hate that phrase. Ridiculous in its transiency.Especially when we talk about sticking to the “system” through the month and fall out in the end.

Haggling with stockists – “Madam, we need to live!”The pity of it all. Doubts on whether it is “right” to upstock the chap more – “O this guy can afford to be bucked up a bit!” The savior last month being the defaulter this month. 

 

Two months have given sufficient grooming in excuses, threats, lies et al. One wonders whether the stockist is taking us for a ride or vice versa – a bugging thought either ways.But one should develop a thicker skin as days go by. 

Blame your superiors for whatever trouble you can’t seem to find an answer for. I do it. My boss does it. My bosses boss must be doing the same too.

 

When the figures are done, we are united in the happiness of 110% achievement. Hallelujah! 24 hours of bliss, joy.

 

Well “Tomorrow is ANOTHER day!”
