It’s Never in the Bag

Are you in sales? If so, you know that the only thing that really counts is the signed order and the money. Promises, appointments, and “I’ll be back”s don't mean anything until then.

It's never 'in the bag' until it's actually in the bag. And that's why it's crucial to keep a close eye on your sales pipeline and follow up with every lead that has shown interest in your product or service.

But it's not just about following up. It's about honing your sales skills to avoid the dreaded 'think it over' response. Sales is a science, and it can be learned by anyone who is willing to put in the effort.

If you're looking for a great resource to improve your sales skills, I highly recommend Jeffrey Gitomer's Sales Bible. It's a comprehensive guide that covers everything from prospecting to closing, and it's filled with practical tips and advice.

Remember, getting orders and making sales is not about luck or magic. It's about doing everything right up to that point and being prepared to close the deal when the opportunity arises.

So, don't count your “bebacks” and promises. Focus on what really matters and keep improving your sales skills. That's the key to success in sales.
