If you’re on Twitter, you may know that they have this thing called #FF (Follow Friday) and I’m always flattered when somebody mentions @RainMakerMaker on their #FF, but as you know, I don’t work much on Friday, so I often miss them. Here’s my idea….
How about if we screw with the Twitter world, but do it with a Fun Friday post? The post will be silly, or off color, and definitely not serious, but (and this is important) will have a sales lesson in it.
I’ll start. This one comes from a good friend of mine.

This is my neighbor:
She’s single…She lives right across the street. I can see her house from my living room.
I watched as she got home from work this evening.
I was surprised when she walked across the street and up my driveway.
She knocked on my door … I rushed to open it.
She looks at me, and says, “I just got home, and I am so horny! I have this strong urge to have a good time, get drunk, and make love all night long!
Are you busy tonight?”
I immediately replied, “Nope, I’m free… I have no plans at all!”
Then she said, “Good! In that case, could you watch my dog?”
So, how many salespeople think they have a sale but wind up watching a competitor have all the fun?
So, your mission, should you accept it is to Tweet this post with the #FF hashtag. If you want some notoriety, comment before you do. Then they’ll probably read your comment as well as the post.
Want to guest post a #FF? Send it to me.

I don’t see how anyone can top this one…
We’ll keep doing this until we get Steve to comment.
Definitely a good one. Although I didn´t get it on the first try, on the second one I did. How many sales people just stare at what others do, instead of being part of the action and making their own moves? A really good one. Congrats! Sharing it 😀
Uh oh, a man with a mission. He’s not going to be easy…
The girl next door. Good flick. There are some great sales lessons in that movie.
In fact, technically speaking, it would be like getting Elaine to…
