Sales is a very social field which requires impeccable people skills. Interviewers should be able to easily understand you without feeling like they wouldn't otherwise be talking to you. Make sure you smell nice, too.

A sales person needs excellent interpersonal skills, so it's important to be confident (not arrogant) and at ease during the interview. Research the company so you can demonstrate your knowledge of the products or services you would be selling. If you have sales experience, describe ways you helped to win new customers and increase company revenues in previous positions.
