Because my background isn't marketing I don't have any funny stories like yours (which are AWESOME!). However, I have plenty of old school sales stories. I always loved the "go collect as many business cards as you can" contest. I knew reps that would go to Subway and pull handfuls of cards out of the "win a free lunch" bowl (which may be an old school marketing tactic!). I remember in my first sales job right out of school, I was handed a phone book. That was sales enablement. My favorite question when interviewing sales reps is "what is your most valuable sales tool?". They have so much to pick from now!
