Why is a mindset for selling success so important and how do I fortify it?

  • Sales is probably the one job where you face rejection the most so you must have resilience.
  • The mindset is going to separate you from everyone else. Tom talks about the importance of disassociating yourself from the product you’re selling.

How to have a mindset for selling success

The confident competent infinite loop

  • As you get good at things, your confidence levels go up. Tom talks about what happens next.
  • Understand what you’re doing to contribute towards your success.
  • You need the people skills as well as the process skills.

Discipline

  • This is part of the mindset for selling success. You have to have the discipline to follow the sales process.
  • There are a lot of aspects of our jobs we don’t necessarily love. You have to love the other parts enough to make the less exciting parts worthwhile.

Slumps

  • First, recognize when you’re in a slump. Then ask why. It’s usually either external or internal or both.
  • The more you learn the more you earn.
  • There are no excuses to not learn more about your job role and improve.
  • Tom explains the difference between winners and whiners.
