Preparing for a sales career
- You've had a number of great interviews for an entry-level position with a company that you really want to work for. Today, they offered you the job, you accepted, and now you are their newest sales representative. Congratulations, you're excited, right? Of course you are, but at the same time, you're nervous since you've never sold before. Believe me, we've all experienced what you're feeling right now. My name is Dean Karrel, and I've been in sales for more than three decades. Early in my career, I was intimidated by watching sales trainers with in-your-face techniques guaranteeing instant success in the style of some salespeople who don't listen, are loud, and just seem abrasive. I never wanted to be like that or sell like that. I just wanted to be myself and be a successful sales professional. In this course, we're going to review all of the essential foundational pieces you should learn to enhance your skills and develop everything from your confidence to building successful business relationships. I know what it's like to feel the fear of selling, the excitement, the anxiety, and the real joy when both the buyer and salesperson's goals are reached. So take a deep breath, and let's get your path started on a successful career in sales.
