Becoming your own salesman is really like becoming your own boss, to some extent. Working for a big company, you will have a sales supervisor or a sales manager. Your managers won't even be out there trying to tell you how to run your business, unless your sales are not where they should be. They may give you some suggestions how to get your sales up before the end of the sales period. Being dressed like a professional in a nice shirt and pants is important if you want to make a good impression on your clients.
To become a successful salesman, you have to be Organized. A good salesperson will set goals,(yearly, quarterly, monthly, and weekly) that way you can track out how your sales are going. If your sales are a little soft, then you may have to work a little harder to get to your goal. Make sure that when you have a sales route per say. Make sure you make all your calls and don't skip anyone because that will take away from your sales. Also, if you don't call on your clients regularly, they may lose interest in what you are selling, and then you have lost their business.
A good salesperson will have a good, positive attitude, and will be very enthused about the product they are selling. Sometimes, when you are either driving or walking to your clients, do a little role playing on the way on how you are going to make your presentation. These are just some of the ways to focus on becoming your own salesperson.
