Rejection: A Mainstay In Marketing
Sales A Numbers Game
A very close friend of mine found herself in a dilema, well spoken and knowledgable but the fact still remained she had a fear, fear of rejection. No matter how many times I would explain to her that sales is a numbers game and that your gonna have to go through the no's to get to the yes, she still would cringe at the fact of having to speak to people in order to finalize the sale.
Statistics show that 90-95% of the people who go into sales cannot handle this, and eventually leave the profession. Vivid pictures painted so perfect over the internet of glamorous lifestyles: the fancy car, the yacht, and the house on the hill. They fail or tell you later what is expected or what it will take to travel down that road to get their. Unfortunately, being rejected is a part of the scenario when your in this line of business. How you handle rejection is the key to success.
100 no's to get to one yes is what alot of gurus say has to happened in order to a sale.(typically) Successful salespeople understand that rejection is all part of the numbers game, so they don't let it get them down. They know that if, on average 99 people out of 100 are going to reject their product, then all they have to do is find 100 people in order to make a sale. The cup isn't half empty; it's half full.
Rejection is no longer to be feared, but something to be accepted as a normal part of the sales and marketing process. Furthermore, I told my friend that sales is a numbers game, with far more losses than wins but if you can handle the no's when you do get that yes it will be worth your hardship.
To Your Success,
