This article is devoted to illustrate the evolution of the role of sales people, which changes according to consumers and customers needs and behaviour. It analysis mostly the 20th century and gives the reader the information in very interesting, animated way. The main idea of the article is to demonstrate the power of the seller in the past which is transfered to the buyer in recent years because of modern technologies. |
Once again, another article in the continuing debate of what's better - writing your own original content or as the article mentions:
pumping out ...links like sewage.
Here's my perspective on this whole debate:
First, I would recommend stop pumping raw sewage links. This doesn't convince anyone that you are an authority figure, trusted advisor, resource, thought-leader, or expert. All it does is anger your network that you're flooding their feeds with useless information.
Second, start curating great content that is precisely targeted to be relevant to your customers, clients, and prospects. Add your perspective and insight (just like I do here on Scoop.it). There are numerous tools, tactics, and workflows to do this efficiently in a 15 minutes a day.
Third, write original content. Publish a blog article once a week of 300-500 words. Take 45-60 minutes to write a thought-provoking piece of work that engages, excites, entertains, stuns, angers, stirs emotion, and generates discussion. Mix this in with your curated content on a 4/5-1 ratio. For every 4/5 pieces of curated content and insight you share, write one original blog post.
