Conventional and Unconventional Titles of Sales People!

Here are some sales job titles most commonly used:

  • Account executives
  • Account managers
  • B2B sales
  • Business councelors
  • Business executives
  • Business managers
  • Business development managers
  • Business development officers
  • Business development executives
  • Customer representatives
  • Customer specialist
  • Customer service manager
  • Client service
  • Client representative
  • Financial advisors
  • Marketing managers
  • Results producer
  • Results manager
  • Results supervisor
  • Relationship manager
  • Sales executive
  • Sales engineers
  • Sales specialist
  • Sales consultant
  • Sales rep
  • Solutions analyst
  • Sales professional
  • Telemarketer
  • Telesellers
  • Technical sales
  • Trusted advisors

They are conventional.
It makes sales people the same.
Differentiation comes from the little things -
every aspect of the little things – including job titles.

In some companies receptionist are now Director of first impressions.
Now, that’s an exciting title.

If you sell some sort of products that prevents disaster from happening, why not use unconventionally: Disaster recoverer or Disaster preventer. If you sell home security systems, why not use unconventionally: Director of Peaceful Homes. If you sell antivirus software, why not use unconventionally: The Ultimate Virus Killer. If you sell some fancy cars, why not use unconventionally: LOOK-at-THAT Manager – if people ask you what kind of title is that? You reply with… “Mr. Prospect, has this ever happened to you? You are driving or walking with a friend and suddenly a cool car passes you with a loud VrooOOMMmm, and you say to your friend, ‘Look At That!’. I help people own one of those.”

Be creative – be different – be unconventional.

Unconventionally,

Unconventional tactics job seekers used to get attention!

Just read that job seekers are now using unconventional sales weapons to get the attention of hiring managers.

Some of the most memorable tactics identified by hiring managers include:

  • Candidate sent a shoe with a resume to “get my foot in the door.”
  • Candidate staged a sit-in in the lobby to get a meeting with a director.
  • Candidate washed cars in the parking lot.
  • Candidate sent a resume wrapped as a present and said his skills were a “gift to the company.”
  • Candidate handed out resumes at stoplights.
  • Candidate sent a cake designed as a business card with the candidate’s picture.
  • Candidate went to the same barber as the chairman of the board and had the barber speak on his behalf.
  • Candidate handed out personalized coffee cups.
  • Candidate came dressed in a bunny suit because it was near Easter.
  • Candidate told the receptionist he had an interview with the manager. When he met the manager, he confessed that he was driving by and decided to stop in on a chance.

Does desperation sparks creativity?
When the odds are against us - only do we turn to unconventional and true differentiation?
Why not be unconventional and live differentiation always?

The Life And Adventures Of Sales Ninjas

Adventures of life - fear & risk

My girlfriend Catherine doing Firefox.

 Feel the fear and do it anyway! ~ Susan Jeffers

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature. ~ Helen Keller

My younger brother Sohn doing the Postman's Walk.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.
~ Helen Keller

It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves - in finding themselves. ~ Andre Gide

This is me, Hanzo Ng, doing abseiling.

As a Sales Ninja,
focus on your goals,
trust in yourself,
find adventure,
seek challenges,
face obstacles,
control fear,
take risks,
do it,
be courageous,
learn new things,
gain new experiences,
you do it not to discover yourself,
but to rediscover yourself that is lost,
adventures enable you to lose yourself so that
you will find the things you’ve lost in yourself.
Abundance, Commitment, Contribution, Courage,  Duty,
Focus, Honesty, Honor, Trust, Improvement,
the 10 codes of the sales ninja is yours to discover.
