When Your Six Year Old SPIN Sells
Ok, my son is destined to be a great salesperson one day. His father and I both come from corporate sales so we both SPIN sell with him to encourage certain behaviors. Example: He is 6 years old and has a summer birthday so we had a tough time deciding if he should go to 1st grade or go through kindergarten again. Academically he was really ready coming from a Montessori class, he had already had Math, Computer and Spanish classes. (Amazing things will come from that generation. He has been using a computer since he was 2 years old.) Long story, short we explained to him that because he is so smart he needs to help the kids in his kindergarten class. Good thing he bought it. Now here comes the funny part. The other day when the weather had gone from 40 degrees back up to 70 degrees (got to love Cincinnati weather) my wonderful son tells me "Mommy I have been so good for you, can I wear shorts to school today?" I died laughing and told him yes you can wear shorts today. Most kids would have simply asked to wear shorts but he made sure to give me a reason as to why I would let him wear shorts. Got to love it!
