Sales skills not really management traits.

Ability to ask the right questions.
Sell without the client feeling sold.
Move the deal at the clients pace with your guidance.

I am looking for some basic info on working for Marriott Vacation Club. What is the base pay? What range can a good sales person expect to make in the first year (base + bonus, etc.)?
Do you recommend this company OR do you have a better company tip?

I have always felt after connecting; asking great questions, listen, develop / quantify customer needs

In face to face selling they are; focus on the customer, earn the right to advance and persuade through involvement

Several good sales processes are Miller Heiman's Conceptual Selling and Neil Rackman's Spin Selling.
