-
You love to talk.
Selling is just like socializing. For those who have a love of conversation, they enjoy making a connection with others. They should also be able to actively listen, when heading for the sale. Impress your clients by deeply engaging in the sales conversation. FYI, actively listening doesn’t mean staring at their forehead praying to god that they shut the hell up to you can feed your ego with your own words. It’s actually giving a shit about the words that are coming out of their mouth and formulating your response based off of what they said, as opposed what you are anticipating they are about to say. Make sense?
-
You’re self-motivated.
A great seller shouldn’t need a lot of hand-holding or supervision. They should possess the skills to track their own growth, and be self-motivated to get things done. They’re also receptive to the times that they do need help. They don’t have to worry about the damn snooze button because they are already awake before their alarm even goes off – ready to dominate their day the same way Ivan Drago dominated Apollo’s face in Rocky IV.
