Sales--Be yourself

We can all spot people who are phony.  Many of us have been in situations where we have had to 'seem interested' in something.  In sales, don't pretend--be yourself.  If you are making small talk with someone, don't pretend to be interested in something you are not.  Being yourself comes through to the potential buyer as confidence and honesty.
