Features: Finding potential customers is a tough and long process. It requires salespeople to have strong perseverance and solid personal qualities, with a spirit that is not afraid of hardship and fatigue. At the same time, salespeople must be observant and able to discover customers around them at any time. Additionally, when searching for customers, salespeople must not be stubborn or insist on one approach. They need to learn to change their mindset and find new hope in difficult situations. Attitude determines everything—without being willing to endure hardship, there will be no success.
In the forest, an ant and a fly are fiercely debating who is stronger. The fly speaks first: "When it comes to who is stronger, it's definitely me. I can travel freely to all the temples in the forest, enjoy the sacrifices reserved for gods, and when I get bored, I can sit on the king's head. I can even taste the pure kisses of young girls. In other words, I don't have to make any effort to enjoy the best things in the world." The ant counters: "That's true, you can travel to all the temples in the forest, enjoy the sacrifices reserved for gods, sit on the king's head, and taste the pure kisses of young girls. But what I see more often is that you usually suck on filth in the corners, you are always cruelly driven away, especially in winter, you shiver and freeze until you stiffen."
No pain, no gain. Indeed, sales is a very tough job, but correspondingly, it is also a job with very high returns. Therefore, as a salesperson, one should have the spirit to endure hardship, learn to give more than the average person, and work diligently like an ant. If one just relies on a little cleverness or luck to pass the time, they will ultimately not escape the fate of failure. Napoleon Hill said, "The world is a valley that echoes, reflecting back our complaints or gratitude about life exactly as we feel them; the world is also a mirror—how we treat it, it treats us in return."
As a salesperson, without the spirit to endure hardship and a positive, upward mindset, the door to success will never open for them. To win customers and achieve success, a salesperson must first have the spirit to endure hardship and always prioritize diligence in everything they do, at least in terms of being diligent with their legs, eyes, and mouth. Being diligent with legs means salespeople should not fear hardship and should go to places outside the office as much as possible to find customers. If a salesperson spends their whole day in the office, afraid of wind, rain, running, and sun, they will never find customers.
The renowned British real estate mogul, Northcott, was an entrepreneur who rose to success through diligence. At the age of 16, Northcott left home and worked as a real estate salesperson in a company. In the early stages of his career, Northcott had no clients and earned only ￡150 a month. To change this situation, Northcott decided to develop many new clients. He made a detailed work plan for himself and decided to find at least 20 new clients every day.
