I always competed with myself, sort of. However, that being said, there are those people who really strive to be in the game and compete because they love the win. Some just do the very best they can because the thought of having a bad day in sales is just unthinkable. Usually the person who is the leader in sales has the privilege of training the new hires. That really helps the new employee not only learn from the best, but they also get all those little tricks of the trade to apply to their customer communications. Competition is great, competence even better. Golfers and tennis players like to play with people who are a little better than they are because it “ups” their game.
