“If you are in business, then first and foremost you are a salesperson. Only after that are you a designer, writer, or whatever else it is you are doing. Selling comes before that.”
Pawel Grabowski started his book with this very interesting sentence that I’ve shared with you above! He simply succeeded to get my full attention to read, and read more! I love to read anything that will help me in managing and growing my Thesis Skins project, as it’s really important business to me.
In this post, I am going to introduce to you a very nice book by my friend Pawel Grabowski. It’s called The Smart Business Guide to Winning New Work. It’s a brand new stuff that worth reading.
Pawel is focusing on selling and how people like you and me should really consider themselves salesmen before anything else. I know that the highest paid salaries in any company -after the management salaries – are the sales department salaries!
I started to realize the importance of sales departments when I was working for companies and my position as a team manager was so close to the company management and sales department.
To explain this relationship between the company’s management, sales department and me – as a leader of a development team- we had to listen to what our sales guys had to say and what they needed from us to create. We actually create what they can sell. Salesmen have their own good point of view!
In addition to that, one very interesting thing I notice is that successful company managers consistently listen to their salesmen when planning, creating, developing, testing, and preparing the product for the market. Thit is why I call it a smart way to run a business.

It’s great to know how to do things and how to create awesome products, but it’s totally a waste of time to create the perfect product without having the know-how to sell it! This is why you need to be a salesman to be able to grow your business and win new work and business opportunities.
