Going into my second month...

I started working here on September 12th, 2011.  This is what I love, the IT space, computer services, technology, hardware, software, etc... Anything technology related!  I'm the Business Development Manager here, basically what I do is generate new business (my fancy way of saying I do SALES).

Into my second week, closed my first deal!  Granted the lead came in over the internet, but I did follow up and go through every phase of the sales cycle.  Since then, though, it has been rather rough.  Getting in touch with prospects and setting appointments, not so easy.  Sales is a numbers game though, right?  Keep plugging away and there will be some Yes-es along the way, more No-s.

Yesterday, I went on two appointments all by myself, with no help.  Felt good about both of them too.  I didn't stumble, stutter or feel intimidated.  I went in, did my "30 second elevator pitch" and talked the talk.  Now hopefully, something comes of either...
