It’s that time of year again when I write a sales rendition of a favorite Christmas song or poem. This year’s song is purported to be the first song ever played in space back in 1965 by the Gemini 6 astronauts: “Jingle Bells!”
Get the tune solidly in mind, then use these salesy lyrics to have a holiday laugh all the way to the bank.
Jingle Bells for Sales
Dashing for the sale
End of year is here.
It seems you cannot fail,
Sales closing big and fast
Making our team cheer.
What fun it is to close at last
Prospects from last year!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle to the bank!
Oh, what fun it is to beat
Your quota every year.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle to the bank
Oh! what fun it is to beat
Your quota every year!
A day or two ago
I thought I’d made a sale
The prospect he pulled back
I thought for sure he’d bale.
The prospect was in need
His fortunes seemed a lot
He purchased with good speed
Oh how much he bought!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle to the bank!
Oh, what fun it is to beat
Your quota every year.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle to the bank
Oh! what fun it is to beat
Your quota every year!
