Listen to >>52901374. There are no good books on sales. I'll give you a 10 minute sales course.
1. Sell shit people want to buy. Most people floundering in sales are trying to sell shitty products.
2. Be attractive. You don't have to be a model, but make sure you diet, work out, and wear tailored clothing.
3. People are buying solutions. People want to pay for the hammer and have you come over and put up their fence for free. The people who don't want/expect that don't listen to sales people and know what they want.
4. People are buying relationships. Every industry is a small place. The way you make more money in sales is by mastering an industry and knowing everyone. Don't piss people off. Get over it and move on. Always Be Shaking Hands. Trust is the bread and butter of sales.
4a. Always follow up on customers after closing. Don't just get the close and dump them like pregnant side pieces. You need to maintain that relationship, ESPECIALLY after the negotiations are done. You will be the first one he calls when he needs something else.
5. You are going to be robbed by your boss. Good sales people on commissions very quickly make more than the CEO. This will piss him off. At some point he will start talking about how the can't afford to pay your commissions now but will get to you next quarter. This never happens. Don't throw a fit. Pick up a job at a competitor.

>thinking you can get out of paying taxes
You brainlets. Taxes get automatically deducted from your raw salary. Up to 30%. 30 fucking % of my salary goes for shit I neither want nor need on a standard contract. IT'S NOT EVEN A FUCKING CHOICE. If I'm on a citizen contract I have to file for 10% of that manually.
