Intro

Hello, everyone.  My name is Dallin Dressman and I am a salesman.  At least, for now.  And possibly for life.  The purpose of this blog is to share my thoughts and experiences related to sales and how it's impacted me as a person.  This is something that I feel has changed my life for the better.  Let me start by saying that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons), and since this blog is basically going to be a modified copy of my journal entries, there will be many references to Mormon belief, both official church doctrine and my own personal feelings.  I connect everything I do to what I believe, and my experience selling has been enriched and made meaningful by my beliefs as a Latter-Day Saint.

I don't know exactly who I expect to be the target audience of this blog, but I hope it will appeal to both a Christian audience and to a sales-enthusiast audience.  As far as sales go, this blog is NOT meant to teach selling principles.  I am very new at this, and I intend to learn far more than I teach.  But I do enjoy sharing my experiences, and any feedback or thoughts are welcomed.  Be warned that I sometimes write A LOT.  If you don't like it, don't read this blog.  Finally, this blog is a story.  You've got to read the posts chronologically or it won't make sense.  So, without further ado, life of a salesman.
