What Does the Sales Person of the Future Look Like (LA 1229) Transcript: Steven Butala: Steve and Jill here. Jill DeWit: Hello. Steven Butala: Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala. Jill DeWit: And I'm Jill Dewit fighting back a cough and broadcasting from sunny Southern California. Steven Butala: Jill, fighting back a cough. Jill DeWit: I got to say, isn't it kind of funny that nowadays with the Corona issue... I don't know what to call it right now. I've heard so many funny sayings. But anyway, I'm afraid to cough or sneeze or do anything in public because I'm- Steven Butala: Or breathe. Jill DeWit: Or breathe too loud in public. Steven Butala: Breath in or out. Jill DeWit: Exactly. You can look at people through protective lens, but heaven forbid you touch, breathe, sneeze, blow air, fart. I don't know. Just kidding. Steven Butala: Never heard you say that in the 10 years I've known you. Jill DeWit: Because girls don't do that. Steven Butala: I know. Jill DeWit: Anyway, that's why I was holding back a cough. I'm like panicking. We were somewhere the other day in a store with our child and he sneezed and I thought everybody was just, it was like Costco, and 20 heads turned. I couldn't get out the wipes fast enough. Steven Butala: Yeah. Used to be like smoking. It seems like overnight you could smoke, you could light up a cigarette in a grocery store, wouldn't matter, and then overnight it just seemed like, wow, you're the devil. Jill DeWit: Yeah. You're smoking. Yeah. Isn't that true? My head pops up now if I'm on the pier and I smell smoke, I'm like, all right, who's doing it? Who is it? Steven Butala: Yep. You're going to hell. Jill DeWit: That's right. And now it's a sneeze or a cough. Steven Butala: I can think of a few things that people do a lot that should be classified as the smoking coughing thing. Jill DeWit: I love it. What is it? Steven Butala: We will lose 90% of our listeners. We will lose all seven listeners that we have on this show. Jill DeWit: Can you say it in code. Steven Butala: No. Jill DeWit: Okay. All right. Steven Butala: And everybody knows what I'm talking about. There are things that people do that are just ridiculous, but they seem to be okay right now. And it's all the decade we're in. It's stuff that's just okay and acceptable. Jill DeWit: I don't know, so if you know, please share it with me later. You think you know people. Steven Butala: Every single one of them is covered multiple times in the Seinfeld sitcom. Jill DeWit: That's it? Steven Butala: If you've ever been disgusted by somebody that you went on a date with and it's totally okay for some reason, but you're like, "Nope, it's not okay for you to clip your toenails like that in a state park." Jill DeWit: Okay. Steven Butala: Or you know, this is the beach and I know that you think you look good, but no, you don't. Jill DeWit: Oh, I do know that one. Steven Butala: Stuff like that. Jill DeWit: Yeah, that one's true. I am familiar with that. You know what's funny? I missed the Seinfeld wave, isn't that weird? Steven Butala: No, you didn't. It's totally okay. Jill DeWit: All right. I've seen it obviously and seen many of them, but not all of them. Steven Butala: The thing is about Seinfeld, it's just constant references to things and so that's the value in it. But sitting there watching this show, and I've only probably 10 or 15 episodes, but they're the same episode over and over again that just deal with different stuff, dating and the silly habits that we have and things like that. Jill DeWit: Yeah. Steven Butala: You didn't miss anything. Trust me. Today, Jill and I talk about what does a salesperson of the future look like? You know, because Jill's a salesperson and to some degree I am too. I don't like to admit it or talk about it, but I think it's going to change.
