Selling stuff. Relevant to every business that buys or sells or does both.

[Cowabunga]

It is very much worthwhile to listen to Jordan Peterson talking about business, entrepreneuring, sales and selling stuff. If you don't find this interesting and somehow relevant, then you really shouldn't be in business producing and selling stuff. It is especially relevant to those of us that have had or still do have a sales job. Most of us sell something to somebody, but this video is especially relevant for people thinking of a sales job in any sphere of industry, business or commerce. Take special note of what Jordan thinks of the job of a salesman.

Enjoy

Slags are by definition, cheap.

Does he have any advice for those in tractor sales?

Inspirational video. Does he also do those 'How to buy' and more importantly 'How to pay' instructional videos? I understand his lifestyle video: 'How to live life without moaning like fudge about everything' is worth a look and I understand he was shortlisted for a Pulitzer for his critically acclaimed book: 'How I ditched the plough and became a man'.

If you don't believe in what you sell you will never sell anything
My mate laughed when I said I was selling grass seeds . "You will never sell grass seeds every Top Dick is selling them" . Glad he said, it gave me even more drive

I believe in what I sell both Germinal and Hurrells seeds in my area both well accepted by customers old and new.
I also believe passionately about the DD in a livestock system with crop rotations.
A simple economical and successful system.

Selling hay to horsey folk is a piece of cake. Getting paid for it is a different matter. Or so I've heard said.

Slag is not the same as it was ten years ago . Lot finer now . Market is massive I ain't the only one selling it . I shifted 200 ton last week . If you want to talk shite carry on . How can burnt lime be shite . I could take you to a dozen farms around here been using it for years and think its wonderful stuff
Its not the same as 40 years ago no but that other stuff would be £100 ton now if you could get it. This is a fraction of that price so at a Ton half to the acre does the same job and you dont need lime , had to lime with the old stuff
Grass seed around 100 acres a week but only been at with the new company a few weeks so early days

Why do you comment on something you know nothing about , have you ever seen the product, talk to people who use it , seen the data sheets , if you thing dairy farmers who use 200 ton a year are idiots I feel sorry for you

Where's it from ? show us the data

 

[Derrick Hughes]

You call a product shite and you dont even know where its from

How much is it a ton and how often do you need to use it @Derrick Hughes ? We used to use slag years ago but it got far too lumpy and difficult to spread.
