why is it important to excel at sales if you want to work for a professional sports team?

Answer 1

Excelling in sales skills is a ticket to work in a professional sports team. This is because a sales representative has the necessary skills and the right mindset needed in a professional sports team. Basically both the sports industry and the sales industry have many things in common like work pressure, late hours of work schedule, a lot of interaction with the common people and many more. A sales representative knows well how to handle work pressure as well as meeting their assigned target on a daily basis. the sports industry is also very vibrant & challenging, they have a very unpredictable nature of the business, in a blink of an eye some team losses and some win. Some sponsor makes money and some losses. sports activities go on even for 10-12 days without a break. A salesperson has the ability to work in such a tense environment, in which a normal person cannot survive. salesperson work for additional hours by compromising their personal life. they give more priority to their job. sports industry needs that kind of person with high moral values, deterministic and ready to take challenges. therefore such stamina to work is only found in a salesperson in comparison to the rest category. therefore if one wants to work in the sports industry then he/ she need to get excel in sales skills.
