Pink Slip Proof is a new book by New York Times best-selling author Paul J Meyer that encourages laid-off and downsized employees to look at a new career: a sales career. Meyer gives a ground-floor view of the sales profession and what anyone can accomplish. Foreword written by America's #1 Sales Trainer, Tom Hopkins

Woodway, TX, October 14, 2009 --(PR.com)-- New York Times best selling author Paul J Meyer build a fortune by being a great salesperson and now he thinks you can too. Meyer says that a sales career is one certain way to control all you future paychecks. To convince you he’s written a book entitled: Pink Slip Proof, which is now for sale on Amazon and his own Pink Slip Proof website.

The founder of many successful companies, including Success Motivation Institute, a pioneer company in the self-motivation industry, Meyer says that “When you are in selling, you can go make it happen, whenever you want.” Good salespeople are always in demand, and good salespeople are not worried about getting laid off.

Often a sales career is the launching pad to a brighter career in business or entrepreneurship. In Pink Slip Proof, Meyer points to Pam Nicholson, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at Enterprise Rent-a-car. Nicholson started with Enterprise in 1981 as an agent behind the rental counter. Meyer says she rose to her top management position because of her passion for customer service, and her incredible ability to sell.

America’s #1 sales trainer, Tom Hopkins, who wrote the foreword for Pink Slip Proof, says that the belief of the natural born sales person is a myth. He calls selling a “learned, trained art.” In fact, Hopkins says that “those who don’t think they can, can do better than those who think they can.” He encourages those looking for a career change to read Pink Slip Proof and says that “There will be a lot of people benefitting from the field of sales who thought they would never do it.”

Meyer encourages workers who have been “downsized, right-sized, terminated or laid off to choose selling. “The world of selling is available to all and everyone.”
