When I get the notification from DocuSign I let out a huge exclamation and fist pump. Then I parade around my condo for 10 minutes until I remember I'm at 10% of goal.

Too close to home, but brutally honest. Sometimes closing a deal is more of a relief than a celebration.

Fist bump air, medium volume victory yell, call mom, and then start stressing about the next deal.

When you get into the end zone, act like you've been there before.

I was doing for a bit when I won a big deal I’d buy a really nice bottle of wine but then I stopped and now it feels like a lame tradition. I wish I had a better one.

A colleague of mine always takes PTO the next day :D quite a good tradition imo.

To be honest if we sign 2 deals each year it has been a good year.

I say "Yay" and move on to the next deal. 😏

"The next deal is the best deal" kind of the mantra in my office. If you get hung up on one big deal, then you miss a few that were hiding in it's shadow. Stay focused and press on.

I have a few nice bottles of whiskey, I normally just pour some on the rocks. If it happens to be end of day Friday, then lots of beer.

I second this, some nice (Irish) whiskey, maybe a beer, and if it's a Friday then a joint may also find its way into the mix.

I feel like 'immediately spending future commission check on golf stuff' needs to be an option here...

I like to go out to dinner with my fiancée (god I can't wait to stop using that word) to celebrate, usually at a restaurant we haven't tried yet.

Acohol with friends. I´m into cocktails as well so when I close a big deal, I spoil myself with a good bottle of whatever I need/wanted to try.

I'll bask in that elusive "yes" that we so clinically chase for a few minutes and even up to an hour just to enjoy not having to hear "no" for once. Then it's back to the phone to try to set a Discovery Meeting with a new prospect! What have you done for me lately is the reality of our business and once that deal closes it's no different from when a team wins a game. Enjoy it briefly, but we have to move on and prepare for the next one.
