Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 2011, features a humorous take on the concept of quotas and sales performance. The strip is divided into three panels, each showcasing a different scenario.

Panel 1:

• A salesman is standing in front of an audience, stating that "losers sell to customers."
• This sets the tone for the rest of the strip, implying that the salesman is not confident in his abilities.

Panel 2:

• The salesman is now addressing a group of coworkers, saying that "winners sell the idea of low quota levels to their own bosses."
• This panel highlights the salesman's attempt to shift the focus from actual sales performance to the idea of low quotas.
• The salesman is shown holding up a medal, which adds to the comedic tone.

Panel 3:

• The salesman is now dancing with his coworkers, exclaiming "now everyone do the cha-ching dance!"
• This final panel shows the salesman's enthusiasm and energy, as well as his ability to get his coworkers on board with the idea of low quotas.

Overall:
