Sales success requires confidence. That can be tougher to achieve in the lean times. Things aren’t always great, sometimes you’re in the season for planting seeds. Yes, planting seeds can be lonely. Planting seeds means that you’re not eating as much as you’d like – you’re planting for now. You must tend to the soil and wait until that food grows. Even if it’s tough, even if it’s unclear and you’re not sure what the future holds, believe that you will reap what you sow. Keep on going, don’t give up. Keep on keepin’ on. Ramon Ray and I discuss how to do that in this interview.
Networking and relationships play big roles when it comes to keep on keepin’ on. Remember that the relationship is more important than the dollar. Dollars come and go, they can be lost and made much easier than valuable relationships. Relationships are sticky. Relationships stay. Value the relationships even if you’re not getting financially rewarded immediately because over time relationships can pay multiples of benefits.
If you’re growing a business, you want to build relationships and make money at the same time. Those who don’t make any money just aren’t promoting themselves enough, making the ask enough and not letting the market know what they can do enough. You need to come from a sense of serving to make things change. Serving doesn’t mean you’re not getting paid; it means that you’re providing so much value and solving problems for other people so well that they’ll happily pay you for your services.
