'Loved the article.
Great writing and message, Michelle.
You are a hot ticket. Keep up
the good work. Sallie Harshbarger
Dear Michelle - I've been reading
and sharing your columns with
my clients for the last year
(whenever they ask me sales
questions, I find your advice
that applies most and send it
a long). I've been a high-tech
marketing person for some 30
years (starting with the big
Silicon Valley firms - HP, Convergent,
Oracle then startups) and for
the last 5 have been on my own
doing marketing consulting -
which I love. I've always avoided
selling - just call me chicken
heart.
I have been working with a
great client - 3 engineers -
who have a
fantastic product and a good
set of first customers. After
"selling" their product
to editors successfully during
their launch, they asked me
to help them with sales... In
the past I would have said no,
argued for my limitations, and
insured them that sales and
marketing people can't be in
the same brain. Instead, because
of you, I said yes. So, next
week I start selling -- just
one day a week (fortunately
I have a full set of marketing
clients keeping me busy in case
I bomb).
Your columns have taken some
of the mystery out of sales
and helped me understand that
many of the skills I have are
a good match for the sales.
I pulled from your columns to
build myself a roadmap for setting
up a sales program from scratch.
Next week I'm taking my favorite,
very successful, sales person
friend to lunch to help fill
in the gaps.
Thank you for the inspiration,
information, and courage to
take on this new world
