Do you remember being a rookie salesperson and watching the heavy hitters in the office? They swam in the deep end of the pool and did business with Fortune 500 companies. In your head, you imagined and envied the superior selling skills it took to not only land one of those accounts, but to simply get an appointment. Naturally, none of them openly share their "secret" and told you how they got the business in the first place. There's a good reason for that: it's not a secret and it likely didn't take superior selling skills.
