That's what Sales is about
Problem is sales. Realistically you need someone who can hustle.
That's not how (good) sales works.
Anyone from a sales roll care to speak to this?
As a sales guy, you might want to learn a bit more about the value of sales. (It ain't the faces.)
Elaborate please. Those not educated in sales may benefit.
Sounds like you needed better sales people.
Any salesman you asks this question doesn't understand sales.
Sales has never been my forte so would appreciate feedback from more experienced people!
You put these people into sales.
