Embarrassment came quite a bit closer to home one time when I was on stage at a Los Angeles hotel, finishing up a keynote at an awards dinner for about 400 salespeople. The audience and I were in formal dress, and just as I was concluding my session, I noticed for the first time that I’d neglected to pull up the fly on my tuxedo pants.

I quickly put on a face of comic surprise, and everyone roared. Then, as the laughter died down, I leaned against the podium, nodded knowingly, and said, “Remember the sales strategies we’ve discussed this evening. Remember all the tips and tactics. But above all remember that none of them mean a thing. . . if you don t remember to close.” With that I thanked them and walked off the stage.
