Best Sales Movie (Poll)

I would like to settle this once and for all. There are many different sales movies that have probably influenced a lot of us. I would like to spark the conversation of which sales movie is king. Whether it be funny, inspiring or just out right the best.


-If you are a newbie I would recommend giving these a watch!

What is the best overall sales movie?

Glengarry Glen Ross shows the pain of sales. I think we gravitate to the fun sales movies but there are a lot of kicks to the nuts in the process. Good to document that so everyone doesn't think they can do sales

The first day at my current company, I walked in and the AE had written "Put that coffee down!" on the whiteboard. That was the last thing I remember... now here we are.

Even though itโ€™s obvious and played out to praise Wolf of Wall Street, it still really is the quintessential sales film.

Like you said, they both have their own pros. Iโ€™ve rallied the team to do 2 days in the office and 3 wfh. That way youโ€™re getting the most out of both worlds
