Bank, it's the old story, you suffer for the 100 guys that came before you with the same pitch that came as mysteriously as they disappeared. We just have all seen it and done it before, and every day there is another fresh face opening a brokerage with big dreams of being the next guy to get his name on a skyscraper.

But the problem with that thinking is not that I discourage dreaming, or motivation, or competitiveness, but that you're bringing nothing new to the table like your hundred brothers (or sisters) before you. You guys lay it on thick and in the end, you're another shop, doing the same thing, with the same programs, calling the same merchants we are.

All you're bringing is more competition to a very VERY crowded marketplace. If we were drug dealers, people would end up in dumpsters. Lots of em. So forgive me and the other vets that aren't jumping for joy at your programs and experience. Proof is in the pudding. Get a well-known and well respected ISO or lender to vouch for you, and we are all ears.

The very first sales position I ever had I pitched my boss on something (doesn't really matter what), point being his response was "if you have to ask for a shot, you obviously are not impressive enough for me to give it to you"
