Always Be Closing
 

Fuck you, that's my name.

Please analyze this speech. How do you interpret it?

Put that coffee down!

Love business related movies like that.

Same here. This is one of my all time favourites too.

great film

It's fuck or walk.

So many good lines in this scene. I really miss David Mamet movies.

Watch Homicide if you want another good one with some fantastic Mamet dialogue.

ABC = Always be closing.

This doesn't mean sticking a buy this button on everything at every point.

It means closing in terms of getting the clients agreement on what the salesman has just proposed.

For instance, a site I've just looked at. So far after tried to look at samples of what they have and seen nothing. Then asked to register. Why should I bother to stay?

Don't stick the join button in my face before I'm sold on the product.

That is sales basics - do not push for the close straight away, until customer is sold on the value he is getting. And I think the second blackboard in that clip has something about it in 4 words: interest, agreement etc.

A good play that people take far too seriously for the wrong reasons.

So why do so many sites fail to get it?

Coffee is for closers!

Do you hear me you fucking faggots?

LOL

It is not something everyone can master and some maybe even did not have any sales training etc. And many more various reasons.
