Sad, but all true answers.
Two things.

You have to ears and one mouth. Listen more than talk.

ABC, always be closing. Close, close, close. If you can't close on the sale, close on what is needed to get the sale.
pleasant personality, willingness to listen, to offer a solution and generally do not become a pest. added advantage is day's hardwork - it always pays.

Money will come if you are sincere in your efforts. Have a good knowledge of the product you are trying to sell and do an analysis of the customer's need. always try to think like a chess player - what the other person will be thinking and talk appropriately
