Even I Learned to Sell

One of the most interesting things about selling is that there are a lot of misconceptions about selling. One of those is that the best salespeople are born sellers. Somehow they popped out of the womb and were selling the nurses on a new baby blanket that was softer and cuter. It simply isn’t the case that anyone is a born salesperson

When I started in the exciting world of sales to say that I was really good at it would be… a complete and total overstatement. I had some book smarts, but I had very little street smarts. Closing a deal was hard. Filling my pipeline was hard (actually when I started I didn’t even know what that was). The entire concept of selling was hard. It all made sense in my head, but executing on that? Impossible

I hope through the course of this blog to share items of wisdom that I have learned in the sales world for almost two decades. If this can make your sales journey a little easier, then this will all be worth it. At the end of the day, I want you to be a more successful you than you are today.

Let’s make the progress together.
