3. Skills
There are many skills that you will need to become a Sales Specialist and become a successful one at that, the
first is a necessity which is communicational skills, this isVERY important because it allows you to pitch your
product and as it is and IT based, you will be selling IT based equipment to schools. So communicational skills
will be a strong feature of the job, along with this you will need to acquire Inter-personal skills so you can co-
operate with colleagues and clients. Also as well as this you must have perseverance and motivation to sell
items to schools, even if the client does not like the product, you should be able come back and convince
other schools to buy the product without being dis-heartend by the negative feedback that you may receive.
You also must have a very good work ethic when working as an Sales Specialist because you will have to do
background information on the product you are selling and the target demographic you are selling too.When
you are selling your items you must have confidence in yourself to present the product and also you must
present yourself very professionally and have a good organised manor to their work, also when you are
presenting the product to the consumer it is vital that you have obtain a range of innovative vocabulary that
will attract the customer to buy the product. Negotiating and Persuading is also a vital skill when selling a
product, you must be able to complete a sale efficiently when you are working as a Sales Specialist.

4. Attributes
Punctuality is an important attribute since many people do not have the experience of those who have worked before
they often don't realize just how important punctuality is.The employer hires you to work specific hours and if you are
not there on time then he must find someone else to cover your job duties for you.This puts a strain not only on the
employer but co-workers as well, also you must be well-mannered.You are representing the employer's business so
naturally your manners will be important. If you are working with the public you will most likely be the first person a
customer has contact with. How you behave towards them will be the impression they take away about the business.
Being courteous and well mannered is also important when dealing with co-workers and makes for a more
professional work environment. Enthusiasm is also a good attribute to obtain because it allows you to work harder and
also enjoy what you do, which will make you a better investable prospect when you are applying for a job. Another
attribute that I obtain and is a necessity to this job is Leadership, as the job specification suggests you will have to be a
Manager of a company which will allow you to control a certain amount of people.

5. Reasons
I have chosen this job because I think this job requires a range of skills and attributes, which I personally think
possess, so this is why this job was very appealing to me, I also thought that this job will require to you do a lot
of organised and independent research about the items that you are selling which is also something that I
think I am good at, as for other jobs such asGraphics Designer andWeb Designer I personally don’t think I
would enjoy these types of jobs, I would rather express my opinions by talking and communicating with
others.
Some of the skills that are used in this job will definitely help you in other jobs you may come across in the
future such as Interpersonal and Communication skills may come in very useful in other jobs.This is very
important in jobs which require team work. Many other skills such as Discipline and Respect is a necessity in
every job, not just this one, But acquiring a range of skill sand attributes is beneficial in any scenario, as it
betters your prospects of getting a job.
