• I get asked this question a lot and as a person
  who spent most of their working lives in sales, I
  believe the answer is clearly YES! Ex-Salespeople
  make excellent sales trainers because they have
  first-hand experience in the field and can share
  practical insights that other trainers cannot.
  Here are a few reasons why salespeople make great
  sales trainers
• They have real-world experience Salespeople have
  spent a significant amount of time in the
  trenches, honing their skills, and learning what
  works and what doesn't. As a result, they can
  provide practical insights that other trainers
  may not have.
• They have a deep understanding of the sales
  process Salespeople have a deep understanding of
  the sales process, from prospecting and
  qualifying leads to closing deals and following
  up with customers. They can share this knowledge
  with trainees, helping them to better understand
  the sales process and be more effective in their
  roles.
• They know how to connect with customers Salespeop
  le know how to connect with customers and build
  relationships. They can teach trainees how to do
  the same, which is essential for building trust
  and closing deals.
• They understand the importance of
  persistence Salespeople know that sales is a
  numbers game and that persistence is key. They
  can teach trainees how to stay motivated and
  focused, even when facing rejection or setbacks.

• In addition, ex-Salespeople bring a variety of
  skills and knowledge to the table as sales
  trainers. Some of the key skills and attributes
  that salespeople bring to their role as trainers
  include
• Sales techniques and strategies Salespeople have
  first-hand experience with a variety of sales
  techniques and strategies that have proven
  effective in real-world selling situations. They
  can share these techniques and strategies with
  trainees to help them improve their sales skills.
• Communication skills Salespeople excel in
  communication, both verbal and non-verbal. They
  understand how to communicate with clients and
  customers effectively, and they can teach these
  skills to trainees.
•  
• Relationship-building Salespeople understand the
  importance of building relationships with clients
  and customers. They can teach trainees how to
  build trust and rapport with potential customers,
  which is critical for successful selling.
• Persistence and resilience Sales can be a
  challenging field, and salespeople know how to
  persist and remain resilient even when faced with
  rejection or obstacles. They can teach trainees
  how to stay motivated and focused, even when the
  going gets tough.
• Product and industry knowledge Salespeople have
  a deep understanding of the products and services
  they sell, as well as the industry in which they
  work. They can share this knowledge with
  trainees, helping them to become more
  knowledgeable and confident in their sales
  presentations.
• Overall, ex-salespeople can make great sales
  trainers because they have practical experience,
  a deep understanding of the sales process, and
  the ability to connect with customers and teach
  important skills to others.
