What's the Problem, Pal?

You see this watch? You see this watch? That watch costs more than your car. I made $970,000 last year, how much did you make? You see, pal, that's who I am, and you're nothing. Nice guy? I don't give a shit. Good father? Fuck you! Go home and play with your kids! You wanna work here, close! You think is abuse? You think this is abuse, you cocksucker? You can't take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a sit? You don't like it, leave. I can go out there tonight, the materials you got, make myself $15,000. Tonight, in 2 hours. Can you? Can you? Go and do likewise. A I D A. Get mad, you son of a bitches, get mad! You know what it takes to sell real estate? It takes brass balls to sell real estate. Go and do likewise, gents. The money's out there. You pick it up, it's yours, you don't, I go no sympathy for you. You wanna go out on those sits tonight and close, CLOSE, it's yours. If not, you're gonna be shining my shoes. And you know what you'll be saying; bunch of losers sitting around in a bar: "Oh yeah, I used to be a salesman; it's a tough racket." These are the new leads. These are the Glengarry leads. And to you, they're gold. And you don't get them. Why? Because to give them to you is just throwing them away. They're for closers. I'd wish you good luck but you wouldn't know what to do with it if you got it. And to answer your question, pal, why am I here? I came here because Mitch and Murray asked me to, they asked me for a favor. I said, the real favor, follow my advice and fire your fucking ass because a loser is a loser.

Attention...Do I have your attention? Interest...Are you interested? I know you are, cause it's fuck or walk; close or you hit the bricks. Decision...Have you made your decision for Christ? And action. AIDA...get out there. You got the prospects coming in, you think they came in to get out of the rain? Guy don't walk on the lot lest he wants to buy. They're sitting out there waiting to give you their money. Are you gonna take it? Are you man enough to take it?

You Know Why Mister?

Cause you drove a Hyundai to get here tonight, I drove an $80,000 BMW, that's my name. And your name is your wanting. You can't play at a man's game, you can't close them, go home and tell your wife your troubles. Because only one thing counts in this life: get them to sign on the line which is dotted! You hear me you fucking faggots! A, B, C. A Always B Be C Closing. Always be closing. Always, be closing.

Good, cause we're adding a little something to this month's sales contest...

As you all know first prize is a Cadillac El Dorado. Anybody wanna see second prize? Second prize's a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired. You get the picture? You laughing now? You got leads; Mitch and Murray paid good money. Get their names to sell them. You can't close the leads you're given, you can't close shit, you are shit! Hit the bricks pal and beat it, cause you are going out!... The leads are weak? Fucking leads are weak? You're weak. I've been in this business 15 years...Fuck you, that's my name!

Coffee's for closers only

You think I'm fucking with you? I am not fucking with you. I'm here from downtown. I'm here from Mitch and Murray. And I'm here on a mission of mercy. Your name's Levine? You call yourself a salesman you son of a bitch?...You certainly don't pal! Cause the good news is you're fired. The bad news is you've got, all you got, just one week to regain your jobs, starting with tonight, starting with tonight's sit. Oh, have I got your attention now?

Let me have your attention for a moment...
