A good salesman is someone who sells

I like simple definitions. 

There are tons of articles and books on this topic. They talk about what makes a good salesperson. Methods. Processes. Spin selling, solution selling. Pipelines, funnels, inbound, outbound, outdoors, network. Brand. Reputation, awareness, recognition. Tools. CRMs, content marketing, analytics, automation, lead generation. Skills. Empathy, curiosity, NLP, guts, courage, feeling, structure, negotiation.

I even wrote a couple of papers myself. About online digital communication and collaboration, and about my approach to B2G/public sector and B2E / enterprise sales. We develop ourselves tools for lead generation, market intelligence and bid automation.

But these are methods.
