Sales Horror Story Newsletter on the Web

Reveals Sins of the Salespeople

The masthead on the free monthly publication reads: Here are the
Archives of Salespeople who have Crashed and Burned. Read 'em and
Weep (or Laugh).

Each month the 'war correspondent of selling,' Dan Seidman
compiles the best of the worst selling disasters for his
subscribers. Dan explains how he created the publication:

"I got sick of all the sales success stories. Are we really
inspired by the kid who closed that tough sale? Or would we
rather enjoy the misery of our selling colleagues who bombed? I'm
betting the farm on great gruesome failures."

It's a good bet, too. The free newsletter is only one offering
from www.salesautopsy.com. The website also functions as a lead
generation tool for a national sales training organization.
Several million dollars in potential business flows through the
site on a regular basis as visitors include salespeople, sales
executives and entrepreneurs.

And where do the stories come from? Visitors can take a shot at
web immortality by confessing their most embarrassing moments.
There are two rules for salespeople who would reveal their sales
nightmares: no happy endings and you must share the lesson you
learned.

The stories range from sales blunders to hiring mistakes to
management madness. Some of the better tales include the guy who
mistook his prospect's wife for John Madden, the headhunter who
unknowingly sent a sales candidate to a pornography magazine and
the salesguys who drank frozen drinks before the appointment -
and walked into the office looking like circus clowns.

Dan Seidman believes the root of most sales failure is rather
simple. "The rep is probably using an old technique. Today,
buyers are better at buying than sellers are at selling. This
means that the buyer has heard all the salesperson's closes so
often, the buyer knows them better than the rep!"

Any individual whose life is touched by the world of selling will
want to subscribe to the newsletter. Current readers of the ezine
use it for sales meetings, training sessions and personal
inspiration.
