Been referred for sales representative jobs? Here’s everything you needed to know about sales reps but were too afraid to ask…
Sales representatives jobs are probably the most well-known in the industry. The public face of any company, each sales rep has to know their business inside-out. Not only this, you must have excellent people skills and a lot of enthusiasm – sales representative jobs can mean a lot of travelling, time away from home and meeting many new faces each and every day.
Rejection isn’t something a sales rep is worried about. After all, ‘no’ is only a word to a good salesperson, and sales representatives are always the best in the business.
Self-motivated, confident and friendly, sales reps have become something of a motorway myth given the increase in telesales and online networking. Once the rulers of the M6, sales reps would travel far and wide to meet with clients and customers face to face, offering not only products but product information, help and advice.
Now with the advent of new technology, face-to-face marketing and selling has become rarer, meaning less people are as skilled in it. Build your personal skills and rapport with customers and your career as a sales rep will be secure. No matter how the industry grows, there will always be a need for well-dressed, well-mannered sales people with perfect pitches and the confidence to deal with setbacks.
If you’re interested in applying for sales representative jobs you will need the following skills:
- Self-motivated
- Enjoy working in a fast-paced environment
- Well-groomed
- Proven negotiation skills
- Fast-paced work experience
- Previous experience in a competitive, target-driven role
