Episode #489: Don’t Be a Victim

If you are in professional sales, it is doubtful that you consider yourself a victim, however, often we slip into a mode of victim thinking and we aren’t aware of it.

In this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, veteran sales trainers Bill Caskey and Bryan Neale provide some thoughts on how to avoid the victim mentality.

When we have a victim mentality, we limit our ability to be creative and to be successful. Bill and Bryan give you some indicators that you might have slipped into that mode and what to do about it if you have.

If you have a sales question you want answered on the podcast, email us a voice memo to [email protected].

Everything You Do is a Project

This concept started with an interview Bill did with David Allen, author of Getting Things Done. In that interview, David suggested that any initiative you have that is MORE than 2 steps, should considered a PROJECT.

As we work with clients, this is how we suggest approaching goals, objectives, and aspirations and put them into a template that will help you accomplish them. And that’s what todays’ podcast is about – giving you a template to work from.
