Essential Selling Skills: Self-Motivation
Motivation stems from your passion, your desire to achieve and desire to excel.
Imagine a baker who is not passionate about baking good quality bread. You are liable to get a bad product with low value for money and most likely you will not return to him for a purchase.
Similarly, if a race car driver does not have the passion for racing or winning, the race will not be exciting, the driver is not likely to win and there is no contribution to sport.
Likewise, a sales person who is not passionate about or motivated to sell is not likely to achieve their sales targets, they are not likely to increase market share and they are not likely to contribute anything beneficial to their company or themselves.
Your happiness and growth are linked to your passion to pursue sales. When you are motivated, the cold calls, the meetings, the presentations, the time and the effort spent will seem worthwhile.
When you are passionate and motivated, you, your company and your customers will grow.
Find your passion and motivation in order to grow your sales.
