Hi: Roger here. I would like to talk with people interested in modern salesmanship. I have sold big ticket items, aircraft (sold 33 yrs.) & autos (sold 5 yrs.), for over 35 years. My interest is receiving and passing along sales tips on the various aspects of the selling experience.

My basic approach is selling as a real profession. In order to practice professional salesmanship, one must learn the concepts and skills that lead to consistent success. I have always felt that many people can sell for a living (ie. professional) but the real "pro" is someone that leaves nothing to chance in their chosen profession. Many people feel that great salespersons are born not made. I couldn't disagree more. I believe that the various aspects and skills of effective salesmanship can be idenified, taught to and learned by the average person.

As I have sold aircraft for over 30 years, of course I was a pilot. I would also be interested in chatting about flying and aircraft.
