Sales in the movies
One of my favorite movies is The Music Man. The main character is a traveling salesman at the beginning of the 20th century. He’s a real POS, faking people out with his idea to start a boys’ band (although he has no musical skills whatsoever).
Anyway! It’s an interesting take on what sales was like back then, and the perception of the “snake oil salesman.” So many things have changed and so much hasn’t. I never thought of it at all until I started in sales about 9 years ago.
Do you have a movie with a sales theme that you watch with a different lens, now that you’re in sales?
