What’s Your Real Job? Let Me Tell You
By Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter
Some of you think your job title tells you what your real job is. It doesn’t. Let me tell you what it really is.
What’s your real job at work? I don’t care if you’re a bookkeeper, a bartender, or an accountant. Whatever your job is, I think your real job is salesman. You’re selling internally, or you’re selling externally. Bartender? You’re selling customers doing an upsell. Accountant? You’re selling people internally to your value, and you’re making sure on the outside people know of your value, too.
Everyone is selling. The question is whether you’re paying attention to the fact that you are a salesman, because if you’re sitting there like a putz, like a lump on a log, thinking your work speaks for itself, it doesn’t. That’s the fact of it. Your work doesn’t speak for itself. You speak for your work. You have to make sure people know about it, and it’s your job to sell it and selling is valuable.
