Hopefully, you haven&#8217;t wasted time applying to jobs which you really have no affinity for and you haven’t gone to interviews with companies who you aren&#8217;t fully interested in working for.</strong><strong> <span style="color: #0000ff;">Read more about</span> <a href="http://salesactionplan.com/06/sales-life/interviewing-tips-for-the-perfect-sales-job/" target="_blank">how to get a top sales job.</a><br />

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Interviewing tips for the Perfect Sales Job</strong></h2>
<address style="text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;"><strong>While interviewing is by no means the only part of the job seeking process, it is often the final hoop that you must jump through before landing that perfect sales position. By the time you are ready to sit down for an interview, you have hopefully already looked carefully at several potential job opportunities, putting each of them through a strict screening process to find out which of them are actually viable options. Hopefully, you haven&#8217;t wasted time applying to jobs which you really have no affinity for and you haven’t gone to interviews with companies who you aren&#8217;t fully interested in working for.</strong><strong><a href="http://salesactionplan.com/05/salesplanblog/how-to-plan-your-sales-strategy-several-moves-ahead/" target="_blank"></a> <span style="color: #0000ff;">Read more about</span> <a href="http://salesactionplan.com/06/sales-life/interviewing-tips-for-the-perfect-sales-job/" target="_blank">how to get a top sales job.</a><br />

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Sales Chess Versus Sales Checkers</strong></h2>
<address style="text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;"><strong>What&#8217;s the difference between chess and checkers? Checkers is basically a game of reaction. Your opponent makes a move, and you react in the best way that you know how. Chess players on the other hand, plan their moves way ahead of time. The best chess players will already know what options are open to them eleven or even twelve moves ahead of time. They think ahead about every possible contingency, and plan accordingly.</strong></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> Getting a Sales Job - Assessing your qualifications and resume building<br />
Part 1 of a 3 part series</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">In this economy it&#8217;s very tough to find a good sales job.  With companies downsizing there are a lot more candidates than there are jobs to fill. That&#8217;s why if you are looking for a sales job it&#8217;s more important now than ever to use a deliberate, strategic approach to getting it.  In part one of this three part series on getting a sales job Joe and Mike discuss how to go about assessing your qualifications and building a resume.<br />

</strong></p>
<p>How many times during a sales process have you heard &#8220;your price is too high&#8221;, &#8220;you&#8217;re going to have to do better than that”,  &#8220;your competitor&#8217;s price is much more attractive&#8221; or any number of pricing objections?</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re like most sales people it happens to you in almost every sale. Even though it&#8217;s so common many sales people are unprepared and even fear dealing with it. The result is often to discount your price when you don&#8217;t have to.</p>
<p>In this episode Joe and Mike discuss how to deal with pricing objections successfully so you can close more deals maximize your commission dollars.</p>
