Today is National Salesperson Day!
The first Friday of March honors the American professional salesperson for their hard work and dedication to the work they perform. Since 2000, National Salesperson Day is an opportunity to celebrate the 1.2 million members of the National Association of Realtors® as one of the most dedicated salespeople and brokers of any industry.
