Just took a sales job, want to get gud

Looking for books, apps, websites, podcasts, anything to make me better at my warm phone calls sales job that I just got a couple of weeks ago. It's nothing like selling cars or cold calls like I've done in the past. Any links you can provide would be helpful.

First tip: always spell correctly. No one will take you seriously professionally if you cut corners and this includes text.

While you're absolutely correct that in professional correspondence one should always double check their spelling, in this particular instance the OP seems to be referencing a popular phrase "git gud" that originated from within the Dark Souls gaming community. The game is notorious for being very hard to play.

I am indeed. Thought the phrase was pretty universal on Reddit, but in any case, this isn't a professional correspondence anyway. My spelling is pretty good, so I'm not worried about that. Also, my spelling will have little to do with me being on the phone...

Make scripts, prepare a form for yourself to fill in while on the call, listen to other sales guys on their cars if you can.
