There are millions of excuses why your salespeople say they can’t sell today. Here’s an entire calendar of funny yet inexcusable sales roadblocks.

January

Between the terrible weather and everyone coming back from vacation, how can you expect someone to focus on buying now? I’ll pound the pavement next month.

February

More snow and more vacation. Way to go, Washington and Lincoln, thanks for President’s Day. It’s such a short month. No one can make a decision in such a short month. Next month is going to be better.

March

No one is going to make a decision on this with more holidays around the corner. Good time to shop for summer clothes. I’ll just use credit cards because I’ll make huge commissions later to pay it back.

April

Who wants to focus on buying with spring in the air? And hey, my kid’s birthday is this month. I’m sure my prospects are working on their taxes anyway. Next month will be better for sure.

May

Great weather in May and I hear that my prospect may be thinking about being acquired. No problem, I’ll look for better ones next month. There are tons of opportunity out there.

June

Kids are getting out of school. No one buys in this weather. Besides, July is a better month for sales anyway.

July

It’s a great time of year to be at the beach enjoying the outdoors. I think all of my contacts are on vacation. August is a much better month anyway.

August

It’s too hot. Besides, I’m taking my vacation. They probably are taking theirs, too. No selling to be done now. Next month I’ll make a sale for sure.

September

Between the three-day Labor Day weekend and a new fiscal year kicking in, no one is buying anything. I’m feeling good about next month.

October

It’s Columbus’ birthday, and I almost forgot Halloween. I’m going to focus on selling hard over the next two months. I’ll finish the year strong.

November

It’s Thanksgiving, and it’s a very short month. I don’t think any of my contacts have their budget yet, and you can’t buy without a budget. December is going to rock.

December

Everyone has holiday fever in December — I know I do. Besides, who can focus on buying with the end of the year so close?

Oh well, maybe next year will be better for sales. Luckily, no one is buying anything from anyone this year.
