"The
One Tip To Explode Your Sales - Fast!"
Yesterday, as I
was running a few errands and picking up some things at Target, I noticed
Time magazine's current special issue about Thomas A. Edison, and
since I already admire Mr. Edison and have learned so much from reading
about his life and work, I grabbed it without even looking at the
price.
I read close to
80 pages last night before I started nodding off and had to go to bed, and
was amazed at Edison's determination to always get what he
was after.
Take the
phonograph, for example: In the famous photo shown below of Edison posing
with his newly-perfected phonograph, he hadn't slept for 3 days and
nights!
No wonder he
has bags under his eyes and looks a bit dazed!
Why
Edison Was Successful - And How You Can Be Too
Edison became
the world's greatest and most famous inventor for one reason, and one
reason only: He was always looking for ways to improve
things! In many cases, he hadn't even been the original inventor of the
product in question, but was able to improve it to such an extent that he
got the credit.
If you want to
succeed in sales, you need to do the same!
The problem,
however, is that very few salespeople look for better ways of doing
things.
In fact, I've
found the exact opposite to be true: Far too many salespeople are trying to
get "something for nothing" and to get more leads and more sales without
having to use their brains.
When I was in
high school, I had a summer job doing hard labor for the local parks
department: Clearing brush, chopping down trees, and the like. Ironically,
I considered it the easiest job I've ever had. Sure, it was physically
exhausting, but I didn't have to think! And going through the day without
having to use my brain was EASY!
Why
Most Salespeople Fail
Most
salespeople fail for that same reason: They go through each day without
using their brains. They look for the easy way out.
Unfortunately,
trying to find the easy way almost inevitably leads them to the HARD way -
a path that rarely leads to sales success.
Robert
Kiyosaki, of Rich Dad fame, in speaking to a group of budding
entrepreneurs, said that "having a job is a sign of laziness." In the
context of that situation, he was telling the people listening that if they
were serious about starting a business, they'd quit their jobs and put
their butts out on the line. There is no other way to guarantee success.
Likewise, salespeople who go on doing the same activities that aren't
working - like cold calling in particular - cannot expect success.
How To
Succeed In Sales - Fast!
If you want to
succeed in sales, and explode your sales numbers - fast - you'll need to
start using your brain and finding ways to improve upon how you're doing
things now.
The good news
is that this isn't as hard as you think. In fact, once you find that way,
sales becomes easy. It becomes a fun game. You will be excited to get up
and go to work every day. Your sales manager will fear you, for fear of his
own job. Your colleagues will envy you and wonder how you're doing it, and
your customers will LOVE you - and send you more and more referral
business!
The best news
of all is that the path to sales success already exists - you don't have to
do the hard work of figuring it out on your own. I've done that for you,
and the answers are all laid out in my Never Cold Call Again
system. It's five modules full of endless tactics, strategies, and
techniques that you can begin using - RIGHT NOW - to flood yourself with
endless, hot leads - people who are ready to buy right now.
And since you
get to "try it before you buy it" on me for a full 30 days, before even
deciding if you want to keep it and pay for it then, or send it back and
never pay me a dime, there's no excuse not to have it, so get your copy
right now:
I look forward
