Don't let out that dirty little secret everyone will want a raise!

Really that is the truth. We sometimes think everyone would love to sell copiers for a living but in reality it is very very difficult and difficult to find people that can do it well.

I think it is easy (30 years of thinking a warped way) but when you get a newbie to the industry they think you are "insane" when you tell them to forget everything they learned in marketing class, or speaking "Portuguese" when you try to describe the real "copier" sales cycle.
