Activity, activity, activity! You are essentially a glorified Grainger employee, calling the exact same book of business every three days just to ask if they want to buy. Buy what, you ask? Who knows. Just anything they might need, provided they are willing to spend four times what it would cost to buy it direct.The entire business model relies on finding a customer desperate for a rare part, then hoping you actually have it on the shelf during their emergency. While some reps make an excellent living here, they either inherited top-tier accounts or have been around long enough to build them through sheer longevity. This isn't a true sales job where you solve complex problems and negotiate deals. Instead, it is just a game of "keep calling and keep pestering" until something finally closes.
