You Are In Sales... Whether You Like It Or Not!
Manage episode 329105233 series 2846761
In this episode, John talks about the importance of recognising that you do, whatever role you are in, work in sales. A scary topic for some but John provides some extremely useful advice on how to improve your confidence in selling.
It’s tough in real estate right now. Things aren’t happening as quickly as they used to and we need to do whatever we can to get the work in. Through John’s own coaching business, he has found that a lot of people say they are an agent but don't work in sales. To put it simply, this is NOT TRUE! Sales sounds scary to a lot of people but it really doesn’t have to be. You just need to work on some key things to improve quickly.
For John, it has been about practice. During this episode, John says that role play has helped him to become more comfortable when selling, which in turn improves your own confidence in how you approach these situations.
