I have always been a big believer in team work accelerating your success and those around you. I often relate selling to sport because both are competitive and there is usually just one winner as a result of the effort put in through practicing moves and approaches, applying your soft skills and even enhancing your soft skills, practicing again and again, and then going into the game or presentation. Most sports are a team-based game just like you and your workmates operate day to day. As with a team-based sport, when you win, the team wins. When you win a new sale, there is likely to be benefits to your colleagues too, and not necessarily your sales colleagues, but the important teams of people around you that all pitch in to satisfy the customer or client.
