Always Ready for a NO!

Selling is an art that needs a very rigorous, tough and an intelligent training off-course. But, when it comes to practicality, it goes even more challenging especially for Newbies. Either it is One-to-One Marketing or it is something beyond this, a salesperson all has to do is Always Ready for a NO. One cannot be so sure of that the product he/she is trying to sell will either a success or a failure, but it could be possible that its product may got some voice in the society.

Being ready for a NO from your customer gives you a strength to move on to the next and keep up the pace until your product starts selling. In other case, the sales personnel might get hopeless of his/her commodity and despite of all the product features, sales plans & strategies, sales pitch etc etc... The sale of the product/service goes to dogs.

In the world around us, we can see many big examples, who started off with a small idea initially with difficulties, but eventually transformed to big setups and today they are known as Giants of Industry or Success Stories. One such example is of an American Fast Food Chain known as KFC - Kentucky Fried Chicken.

The fast food chain that was started by Col. Sanders with his secret fried chicken recipe of 11 herbs. Initially as a stall and saw many ups & downs, but as time passes, his determination in setting up his own business makes it all, what he needs. He faced an era of Low Resources in WW2, He faced disasters and many more things, but one thing made him keep up the pace, is his determination to grow. Now, today we see this very chain of Fast Food restaurant as the World's Second Largest Fast Food Chain after McDonald's¹ (which is another Big Success Story).

Concluding the post to its end, there is left only one thing that should be taken in to account while performing selling tasks i.e. "DETERMINATION".
