Develop More Skills & Improve Your Process
When I was stuck at selling about 8 a month, I was real cocky about defending myself when it came to why I didn’t sell more. I was convinced that with my years of experience, I was good at selling, and if I had a bad month, it wasn’t my fault. When I started learning …
Stop Wasting Your Day Waiting For An ‘Up’
A lot of salespeople spend most of their day just waiting and hoping. They hope for traffic, hope they’ll get an ‘up’, hope that person is serious, hope there’s a unit in stock they’ll want to buy, and hope they can and will take it home today. WOW! That’s just way too much ‘hope’ to …

Lazy Salespeople Put In More Hours Than Sales Pros
I proved that my first 5 years when I was an average salesperson, because I had to work bell to bell almost every day just to sell 8 a month. Then one day I realized I wasn’t even an 8 car guy. I was a 4 car guy working two shifts every day, and most …
