Avoid Needy Behavior: Don’t focus on the need for a sale.
Maintain a mindset of "Tell me yes or tell me no, tell me now I gotta go."
Law of Averages: Understand your average closing rate.
- Example: If closing rate is 10%, need 10 presentations for one sale.
Avoid trying to convince; selling is not about convincing.
Be the "hard to get" salesperson, not the "needy" one.
Don't be a "needer of needers"; lead rather than need.
Understand there are always potential buyers who need what you sell.

Planting Seeds: Every word, deed, and thought is a seed.
Fulfilment of sales is a seed that grows reputation.
Provide "community service content"; free content that helps people can lead to future sales.
Prove capability by helping freely, leading to paid opportunities.
Reap what you sow, reaping later and more than you sow.
