and so she smiles and walks AWAE

so it is my day fourth out in the field to do sales. It wasn't good today in terms of sales but i think i take back good lessons as to improve my next few days. Also, everyday is a learning day and i guess i shall applaud myself that i managed to self-motivate at the final hr of my job and went back field to pitch to 2 people!

it's really all in the mind.
sales can be easy & difficult. easy because it's just the standard things you introduce but of course the way to put it is another skill to acquire. I think i am still figuring this industry step by step, see what it can offer me and whether i can fit into it.Everyday a learning day, everyday a new day.

What makes me stay on despite nil sale is because

the learning opportunities the company offers
the happening and motivating colleagues and boss! (my boss came down tampines from office [at tanjong pagar] just to talk to me and bought drinks for us!) when i sold things, i received 4-5 smses from colleagues whom i nv spoke to before. when i don't do well, like today, i also received smses that encourage me a lot. they don't have to "suck up" to me right? i am a newbie and it's the seniors who sms-ed to spur me on, to make me feel better.
i wanna be like some of them aka the branch managers who are just as young as me! I wanna get inspired from leaders who are willing to share. I met a young lady who is 4 years into the industry after she grad from mechanical engineering from nus today and she really is a role model. She has no air at all despite leading a team of about 20 men and willing to sit down meet us to share her uncertainties and goals when she first stepped into the industry.

hmm, at the end of the day, it's ur personal goals that push u further. at least, this is what i found out from my 4 days in my company. That's why self motivation is soo important, ask yourself why are you doing what you'r doing. There's nothing wrong with someone wanting a stable job with constant income, there's also nothing wrong with someone who wants a full-commissioned job but more of where you set your sight for the longer run.

sales is tough but i know i can make it and i'll make it better tomorrow.
