Make sure you are dressed appropriately for the work you do. Now in the office everyone might be in business casual, but if your clients are not, then you're not. The rule of thumb i tell my staff is accurate for all business occasions, internal or external. Be one step up from those around you. If everyone is wearing slacks and a polo, the be in a button down. if they are in a button down, throw on a jacket or tie. now if everyone is in a nice suit and tie, you dont need to go to tux, but maybe 3 piece? Outside of the tux, its hard to go too high, but very easy to go too low.
dress for the part you want is a good internal meeting thought process. if you see that at business casual meetings that the vp's are wearing a jacket, next time, wear a jacket.
you get the idea.
Sales is more than just pushing product. its selling yourself too.
