Sales Joke of the Day (May 28) Flossing.

The salesman stood in front of the bathroom mirror, carefully flossing his teeth. "Ooh!" he would sigh every once in a while, or "Aaah!" as the little thread did its work. 


Suddenly and seemingly without provocation, his wife stomped into the bathroom and gave him a swift kick. 


Bewildered, the husband demanded, "What was that for?" 


I'm sorry, "his wife replied stiffly, ... "but I just don't believe in sighing flossers." 


Moral of the story.  True sales professionals understand the value of oral hygiene.  It's real tough closing the sale if your prospects back  away because of your bad breath, yellow teeth or decaying gum line.   So too avoid prospects giving you the brush off, brush at least twice a day, floss, and smile!   You're working hard to keep your teeth a sparkling white, so why not show them off when you have the opportunity!

"The biggest reason most people fail is that they try to fix too much at once - join a gym, get out of debt, floss after meals and have thinner thighs in 30 days."

Sales Joke of the Day (February 22) Dental Floss.

The salesman stood in front of the bathroom mirror, carefully flossing his teeth. "Ooh!" he would sigh every once in a while, or "Aaah!" as the little thread did its work. 



Suddenly and seemingly without provocation, his wife stomped into the bathroom and gave him a swift kick. 


Bewildered, the salesman demanded, "What was that for?" 


"I'm sorry," his wife replied stiffly, ... "but I just don't believe in sighing flossers."


Moral of the story.   True sales professionals know that in order to succeed at sales they need to be able to quickly build rapport with new prospects.  One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is with a smile.  When you smile, you want to make sure your teeth are sparkling, clean, and all there.   In order to guarantee good oral health and a healthy smile you need to brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss regularly.

Sales Joke of the Day (September 6) Flatulence

Each and every time he broke wind, the word "Honda" would flutter from the salesman's behind.  Going to doctor, the salesman demonstrated this unusual phenomenon, which, much to his surprise, didn't phase the doctor in the least.
Going round to the salesman's mouth, the physician found an abscessed tooth, which he promptly pulled.  At once the salesman's problem was solved.
"That's amazing!"  said the salesman.  "But tell me, how did you know what to do?"
"Simple," answered the doctor.  "Everyone knows that abscess makes the "f-a-r-t"  go 'Honda."
Moral of the Story.   True sales professionals know that in order to be successful, oral health is extremely important.  Cavities, abscesses, plaque buildup, and halitosis can lead to slurred speech, awkward communication or lost sales.   When meeting new prospects you want to be putting your best foot forward and not into your mouth.   So remember to brush your teeth at least twice a day and see your dentist at least twice a year.
