So what should a sales person do on a Monday?

  • Call or meet only those who have explicitly asked to be contacted on a Monday
  • Add prospect to the sales tracker
  • Read (As rest of the week makes it very difficult to catch up on reading apart from the news papers)
  • Plan the schedule for rest of the week
  • Complete pending tasks
  • Catch up with colleagues
The moot point is - Don't make a sales call on a Monday!
