Life's a Pitch!

We're having a team building event today in Kajang. 9 teams, 90 people. We're all selling products on the street today.

Sir, would you like a prepaid pack with that?

You need guest bloggers to keep your momentum going!

@ranga: oh yes! That's a brilliant idea. Would you like to be the first one? (feels like I'm asking you out on a date, lol)

@tsulin: we did really good sales. 9 teams scattered around Kajang town, near the only mall, Metro Kajang. Distance between each group was about 50-100 metres (imagine corners of various shopping blocks). We surpassed expectations and sold more than 12k worth of products within 3 hours. Considering that these were non-sales guys, I think we did a decent job. Sweaty, tiring, but fun!

All departments within a large organisation should try their hand at sales, especially on-the-ground activities. It opens your eyes to flaws and the necessary improvements.
