This document discusses how self-talk impacts success, particularly in sales. It observes that top sales performers generally have positive self-talk where they believe in their abilities and see opportunities, while poor performers have negative self-talk where they doubt themselves and focus on challenges. A key difference observed between a top salesperson and one who was dismissed was their mental messaging - the top performer conveyed messages of success to themselves and others, while the poor performer focused on negatives. The document suggests improving one's self-talk through positive affirmations and gratitude to impact outlook and results.
A sales person is a tool to get your offering out to prospects and/or customers. It’s true we can control the offering and we can shape the message presented. But it’s the Sales person’s style, presentation and skills that will determine how the customer or prospect will feel about usIT’S NOT WHAT YOU SAY IT IS. IT’S HOW THEY SAY IT
When you want to get started building a super sales team, what are things you want to tell them. Sales is not about just numbers or just saying Yes/No and Next.

Over the years, it has been proven that Sales is not for the faint of heart. Whether it’s selling a bottle of water, cloths at a store, and a new car to a newly promoted manager or a company, selling a house to a family or pitching a startup to investors etc. making that sale depends on the skill, appearance, confidence knowledge and enthusiasm of the salesperson. Quite frankly, not all of us have those characteristics in us. There is a saying that “salesmen are born, not taught”. Well, not exactly. Undoubtedly, there are natural talents, but can you can learn these characteristics and be just as successful? Yes you can!

Differentiate Yourself From the Competition: 15 Sales Experts Share How jennypoore
We all want to believe that we do a better job than anyone else, that no one else can compare. And while confidence is an important part of succeeding in sales, it isn’t true.
A company’s success is largely based on its ability to articulate and execute why it is DIFFERENT and BETTER than the competition.
Being “better” than someone else won’t get you very far. It might just make you feel good in the short-term. And assuming that your competitor will never “catch up” to you is a dangerous game to play.
If you bring this down to the salesperson’s level, those that tend to succeed are skillful at catching their prospect’s attention. They offer information. They send a ‘thank you’ note. They think ahead. On the flip side, the average low-performing salesperson requests information and time from their prospect (rather than offering it), avoids sending a handwritten thank you note (because that would “take too long”), and thinks on the fly (rather than thinking ahead).
Successful salespeople seek to be different, not just ‘better’. Because being different makes them better (i.e. more successful) in the long run.
We were curious about how our fellow sales pros thought about differentiation at the salesperson’s level, so we asked a few experts this question:
