Staying Motivated
Dear Sue:
I've just started selling for a direct sales company. I am happy to be out of the corporate world, but I am wondering how I can stay focused now that I am on my own.
How do I get people excited about what I am doing? And how do I get people to respect what I do and stop comparing it to the way direct sales used to be?
- On my own.
Sue Says:
The best way to get other people excited about your products is to be excited about them yourself. When you are confident and respect what you are doing, others will too. Don't expect people to come knocking on your door. You are the one who will have to reach out to people and generate excitement about the products you are selling.
You can stay focused by setting goals for yourself and by using the products so you can speak from personal experience.
