My Daughter's First Ever Sales Presentation
Fearlessness and abundance.
Harnessing both of those is how my daughter approached trying to "pitch me" on getting the family a dog during this Christmas season.
Even though she knew that the odds were against her to get one, she didn't fear getting a NO from me.
Understanding that a no was most likely, she didn't fear trying to convince me.
For the record, the main reason I am against getting a dog is because I'm afraid it will be my responsibility to take care of the dog and not either of my daughters
So, she spend Saturday afternoon building a powerpoint presentation on why we should get a dog.
She didn't care that no was a possible outcome
She built the powerpoint with a mindset of abundance.
The approach was done knowing that a "no" was an answer but she did it anyway - because she believes that she has to ask anyway.
If she doesn't ask and build the case, I can't say yes.
Because not asking me and not building the powerpoint to build her case is and always will be a no.
That's fearlessness.
I told her that I would think about it and I am genuinely thinking about it. That was this past Saturday at about 5:30pm when I told her that.
She has asked me, if I have thought about it and what was my answer literally, 52 times in since then, which is 5 days.

That's abundance thinking. She has it sent in her mind, that there is a YES out there and she is just waiting for it to happen.
She hasn't gotten the sale she wanted yet and she believes it's out there.
So, she stays the course and believes in winning more than she does in losing. In her mind, the dog exists in her life and it's just about when not if.
So, here is how you can approach the proper sales mindset if you feel more anxiety and scarcity than fearlessness and abundance.
1. No-one can accept your offers if you aren't making any. Make offers knowing you could get rejected
2. Believe that the success you want is more true than the failure you are currently believing could happen
3. Believe in yourself more than anyone else because the more you do that, the more others will do the same.
4. Anxiety and fear are lies your subconscious mind makes up. Don't decided what's going to happen before it does - let all scenarios play themselves out. You just might be surprised to see what happens.
5. Abundance works exactly like scarcity does. The more you feel it the more it shows up. You ALWAYS find what you are looking for.
Apply these 5 things and continue to work on them. Everyone has this struggle and has dealt with it. You are not alone, you are just human.
