Zig Ziglar's Secrets of Closing the Sale: How the Salesman is Important to Our Economy
Today I read a passage in Zig Ziglar's Secrets of Closing the Sale, which was about how salesmen are very important in any economy.
One reason that salespeople are important is that lots of people benefit. When a salesman sells something, for example a tractor, he/she has to use pen and paper to negotiate a contract. In addition, the factory and company that makes tractors benefits because they get business. To create tractors, they need to buy natural resources and sign contracts with other companies that make the parts that they can't make. I think of it this way: Companies make the products, and salespeople sell the products. If there were no salespeople, then nobody would really buy some things because they wouldn't realize the benefits.
An example of this was Cuba. When there were salespeople, as when Fidel Castro first took over, the country was wealthy and prosperous; nothing was rationed. Most importantly, people were happy. You could buy pretty much anything and could go anywhere you wanted. When the salespeople left, the country became impoverished; everything was rationed. During this time, many people didn't like living in Cuba anymore. A lot of things couldn't be bought with any amount of money, and nobody could leave. This shows how important salespeople are: they make the country prosperous and better to live in.
Salespeople are definitely very important to a country economically and socially.
