14. You call yourself a salesperson for life – Why?

My dad always saw a salesperson in me, he would tell me that and I never wanted to recognize he was right. I didn’t like salespeople, they were pushy, liars, etc. He always asked when I would apply for any job “What will I get out of this?” He was always joking, but he did push RV sales … and I don’t think he was joking on that one.

So when I was in college I was a telemarketer, I was so bad at it that they promoted me and gave me different duties. Then after college I started with TB and they were growing and so dominant that I really didn’t have to “sell.” It wasn’t until I got to BigCockContent I realized I had to sell, sell, sell.

I had no list of contacts when I started working for BCC, I had only been in the industry two months … so I had to start from scratch. And as any content sales person knows, the content buyers aren’t the affiliate reps and rarely post on the boards. Well at the time I was the only person with big dick content. And boy did I charge the shit out of people, my clients were paying $10/GB. Yes, $10 PER GB! This went on for years … I had one person up to $12/GB and I had gained clients that no other company had or still does, big ones at that. So it became quite an accomplishment when one feed was making $25-30k/month. This funded the start of EvilGeniusCash.

So when I went to work for PIF, I pulled out my contact list and just started. I had five or six clients in the first two-three weeks I think. I made Kevin a good chunk of money in my first little bit there. I always chalked it up to that PIF was a good product and anyone would take the content, regardless of the salesperson. So I left PIF and went back to EGC. I would work out some good deals considering I had no traffic to give back and we were revshare.

But it finally came to me when I started with YappoDollars that I knew what I was doing and I was good at it. Really good at it. I’m not a person to toot my own horn, so this is even hard for me to write … I have met all my quotas, exceeded expectations and gained new studios that most thought weren’t possible and it was because of my sales skills. So when I finally started to get these clients that were once thought of as “unattainable” I realized that unfortunately, I must accept my fate and that I am a salesperson for life.
