You’re not alone, because the fact is the often info-laden seminars that are constructed for the benefit of employees and those in the business are void of any sales jokes. Why are jokes about sales so important to include? Because they involve the audience at another level of interaction, they create a comfortable environment and successfully engage the audience in its totality. Sales jokes, especially sales training jokes are crucial to presentations and seminars – especially if you are the one conducting the session.

The responsibility is immense, employee satisfaction and general morale comes down to the office environment and the content of their job and duties. The work experience they encounter will be one of amusement and inspiration. Building energy in the room can be difficult; however sales jokes can alleviate the dullness and arduousness of the situation by creating a warmer and more welcoming atmosphere. One of the most important issues to address is ‘questions’.

For those new and lacking in knowledge about the sales industry, questions are critical to their understanding and help in building work relationships with other employees and seniors. As such sales jokes allows for a more relaxed environment where they feel comfortable and at ease to ask questions that will indubitably increase their performance within the office and increase profitability and profile for the business.

There really is nothing worse than sitting through an important sales meeting and finding it hard to stay awake and stay involved. Jokes about sales can make the difference! It offers humour and fun in a business environment. Adult sales jokes can be a risk and before using these in a sales meeting or presentation session make sure you know your audience well. It is inappropriate to use adult sales jokes or sexist jokes in mixed audience situation.

In today’s politically correct society and particularly in the work environment, or in any public presentation there can be severe repercussions if adult sales jokes cause offense to your staff or audience. The reality is that not everyone has the same sense of humour and causing offense will immediately disengage the audience or cause emotional stress in individual staff members. Jokes on sales should be fairly generic and funny! They should also be shared amongst all staff rather than creating a sense of isolation in one or more of the company’s departments.

If all staff are included in shared jokes you will find that the overall team spirit within the organization as well as productivity will increase. Without a shared team spirit, staff members often work alone and at their own pace as there is little desire of supporting fellow team mates in achieving their sales goals and targets. Therefore introducing humour through sales meeting jokes will improve the company turn over.
