Talking is easy, keeping them talking is hard
Account Manager:
Unlike cold calling or door to door selling you can't just put the phone down and walk away. You need to build a relationship. It doesn't matter how good you are at sales, if you can't keep talking to someone and build a relationship, whether you like them or not, you will fail.
People lie and use you to meet their own needs. Don't expect otherwise. They aren't your friends. Even if they become your friends they were still your customer first and they will act accordingly.
The targets never end - you don't get you take a break when you hit a target. Even if you hit all of your targets. It never ends.
