| Does
Your Sales Resume Really Sell? |
A resume is like
a sales presentation delivered via fax or
email. Selling yourself on paper is considerably
more difficult than selling a product or service
on the telephone or in person. You must write
a sales resume that can sell your suitability
to the ultimate decision maker through an
intermediary (the gatekeeper). Think of it
as trying to make a sale by faxing your pitch
to the customer's lawyer! Your resume must
be near perfect to pass muster.
Many sales professionals develop their resumes
with the help of professional resume writers.
If you write your own sales resume, you could
be at a disadvantage. Can your sales resume
beat 95% of competing resumes? Does your resume
sell your ability to deliver results? If you
apply for a hotly contested position, your
sales resume must do a better selling job
than 90-95% of competing candidates.

Your
Sales Resume Must Sell
to Two Audiences... |
The Gatekeeper
and Hiring Authority constituencies are as
different as Republicans and Democrats, and
often have equally divergent agendas.
Generally, the people who screen sales resumes
at medium and large companies do not work
in sales; these gatekeepers may be recruiters
or other members of the HR department. Gatekeepers
guard their turf jealously, so you can be
certain that the hiring manager will not see
any resume that has not been blessed by the
gatekeeping crew.
Unfortunately, the resume screeners have hundreds
of resumes to screen, and they do not have
all the information required to make sound
screening decisions. Often the hiring manager
does not really know what she wants until
she sees it. Additionally, most gatekeepers
have been burned by candidates who look good
on paper but fall short in interviews. They
know that they will be blamed for any poor
hiring decision, so they tend eliminate resumes
for the slightest infraction or omission.
It is very difficult to develop a good understanding
the screening process unless one has screened
hundreds of resumes, week after week, for
many years. Many hiring managers and HR personnel
who have not screened tens of thousands of
resumes will tell you that your resume should
be one or two pages long. Not true. Seasoned
recruiters know that a resume should be as
long as it takes to get the point across.
The bottom line: You must write a resume that
can sell your suitability to the ultimate
decision maker … through a proxy (the gatekeeper).
Think of it as trying to make a sale by faxing
your pitch to the prospect's legal department!
Your resume must be near perfect to pass muster.

Even
Sales Managers Can Write
Ineffective Resumes |
| It may seem reasonable that a Sales Manager or Vice President of Sales, with extensive hiring and interviewing experience, would be qualified to write an effective sales resume. Not so, for two important reasons: |
| |
| |
- |
Sales
managers do not usually perform gatekeeper
tasks. |
| |
|
They do not have to screen
hundreds of resumes based on vague,
changing, and sometimes contradictory
requirements. Often, hiring authorities
realize what they are looking for in
a candidate only after they see it.
In order to write an effective resume,
the resume writer must understand gatekeeper
psychology and anticipate screening
criteria. |
| |
|

Selling
oneself on paper is difficult. |
| |
|
It is considerably more
difficult than selling a product or
service for many reasons including perspective,
modesty, and lack of objectivity. Translating
a verbal pitch into prose does not come
naturally to most people (even professional
resume writers).
Accomplished sales professionals write
subpar resumes for the same reason that
professional sales resume writers do
not necessarily make good sales pros:
expertise in sales resume writing does
not imply sales ability, and vice versa. |

Does
Your Sales Resume Work as
Hard as You Do? |
| Can your
sales resume beat 95% of the competition? |
| |
| Imagine
yourself at the end of a successful job search. |
There are two
things between you and that goal — writing
a compelling resume and interviewing effectively.
Resume writing comes first.
If you would like to get the best job for
your skill level, you should place a strong
emphasis on writing the best resume and cover
letter possible. Anything less will result
in wasted time and effort, missed job opportunities,
and lost income. |
| |
| Let's
talk about your resume. |
| Searching for work is time consuming and not a lot of fun. Common sense suggests that using a subpar resume to apply for competitive jobs is a waste of time. Whether you write your own resume or employ a professional resume writer, you should always present the best resume possible. |
