Shane’s Answer

There are many kinds of sales so it's hard to just say one thing would make you successful, but one thing you do need are people skills. You need to enjoy talking with people, you need to be a good listener, you need to prepare and anticipate where the conversation will go. This is a skill that you can learn and apply to all sales.
