Sales As A Profession

We, indians, tend to underate salesman. Even today, people think that the word "salesman" is deragatory.

Selling is therefore deprived of its proper position of io the best profession. If you have a scenario where
* you constantly interact with other people.
* you devise your own way of fulfilling your responsibilities.
* Creative thinking is encouraged.
* The more the hours you work, the more is the monetary benefits you earn.
Then what will your reaction be? Will you opt for the hypothetical scenario or will you run away from it ?
In my case, I'll opt for choice 1 and make a Profession in Sales. Only in a sales job, do all of these come together. But you will be wondering what about targets, appraisals etc and the constant pressure. If you ARE thinking that, then it is because of faulty selling strategies in your organization or/and  lack of proper sales planning.

All things being equal, it is my firm belief that "Sales" is the best profession that a person can be in. If done right, the amount of satisfaction in sales is unparalled. Plus you earn money too as incentives at the same time.
What can be better then that? So, let me repeat this again that 'THE BEST PROFESSION FOR ALL PROFESSIONALS IS SALES AND ITS PARENT MARKETING'.
