The most incredible sales tip: Your goal as a sales person is to remove the anxiety of the person spending the money.

[@Domtronic]

Anxiety is good. Just direct it to the problem the product/service solves. When a customer wants to buy something, they no longer need to be sold. They sell themselves. Direct the client to appall not buying what you're selling through their own conclusions.

Best salesman I ever met was this rumpled, middle-aged guy in a big chain computer store in the midwest. He was unbelievably knowlegeable about computers and extremely helpful. He really wanted to educate, problem solve and help people. Wasn't about selling at all. Every time I went to the store, I would only want to deal with him. I was told that I was not the only person who felt that way.

[@chrisalister2297]

The sales person has to be right for the situation. Selling to a company or to a person. With a company, is that manager/etc really invested in gaining a solution/product/service that will help their company. The customer has to be equally invested in the exchange.

This is so wonderful and insightful. I am a sales person who considers myself to be fairly good at my trade, but my failure rate is 80-95%.

[@jasonmateus924]

So true. Rejection is one of humans' worse fears..that is why most people cannot see themselves in sales. Once you have done it long enough, you really do get so used to it you consider it as a normal thing in sales and just move forward for that one super rewarding sale. Sales are money. Money is in sales.

I have an invention I want to start with. The item isn't anything that will change the world but many people would find it cool enough that just about every household would purchase 1 or 3 of them. When people made quality things we only needed word of mouth to advertise. Anything that is shoved down my throat every two seconds by some cooperation can safely be called junk everytime. Marketing that targets my psyche is praying on the probabilities of human behaviour and I don't seem to be the most common of men but I turn into a random unpredictable when they try to do it to me . I boycott those even if it inconveniences me. Back to the company I wish to start. I find it's hard to make a living when so many are trying to make a killing. I have realized that anyone who has "applied" themselves or "made something"of themselves which turns Into entitlement, ego, and narcissistic behavior has turned this planet into unfriendly territory. We have made a social disaster where our people are encouraged to believe our claims rather than our claims being truths. As long as the belief is there we can get them to spend. It is incredible that we are to stupid to understand what this is doing to the continuation of life and survival. I hold a knowledge that tells me ever person having different contributions does not mean that there is difference in value for the talents. It takes oil to run a car if John handcock is the oil he must be present if Jane doe is the bolt that plugs the oil pan even being only a bolt she is needed and her value is equal to the driver, alternator, engine, piston. I would like to be the first company to level prejudice, remove ego, and model after the universe that has supplied us the boundaries and standards. Perpetual systems are taught to most as ideas to let smarter people deal with. There is but one goal of that kind of system , continuation. If we are business all the time the accepted mind set for it is business is business. If the legal limit of law says or can be manipulated to legally destroy someone do It. We tell our employees to ignore their personal lives when they get to work We don't care if their sick they must make money for the company. We pray on each other for what? to have the equivalent of an animal peeing on something to say this is mine. Being the leader, a competent one anyway is not synonymous with individual importance and entitlement. My company pays each and every person no matter what their job is including the ceo, president and "owner" the same exact wage for all positions. Jobs are different there are not harder ones not more important ones. Those who can do. those who were raised like animals have destructive, self inflated, insecure, and delusional drive to be top on the social non exsistent ladder. Neutrinos hardly interact with anything they encounter but if one of them went missing some how in the universe I promise you the universe would be missing as well. I swear those calling the shots sitting on top their thrones of panic, worry, deception, and narcissism are not gifted, accomplished, successful, or worthy of admiration. They hold many pieces of the actual and factual but still behave as the sneaky dumb animals unable to shed the memory of their beginnings 7 million years ago. If humans are no different than a mouse or dog or tiger then don't make up words like evolve. Don't speak integrity when your blade is already out of its sheath. Psychology is not a tool to enslave people with. Belief is not reality. Belief is where behaviors are adopted. Behavior is where consequences are unleashed. Consequences are where we succeed or fail. Smart people that Manufacture ignorance keeping their position secure are not successful nor smart. I have seen the alternate epitaph of the humans .its very dishearting to know that our intro to existence is being used against them so a few self appointed gods can feel legitimate. People are so perfect and beautiful. They are not just likened to but ate the same as all the things we percieve as amazing. It is ONLY because the perceptions ate not made to include themselves among those items.. My final point to all of this is they will kill me before I'm allowed to introduce any people to the reality of their worth and importance. Monterrey success is the scale from which for many worth is owned. I don't mind being forced to transform my energy "death" another stupid fictional creation of theirs but it will hault such evolution and serve no purpose but maybe preserve the pecking order for them. I'm all alone here most are trying to be good players at their stupid bad game. The most obvious thing revealed in the Stanford prison experiment was that people want to do a good job. they want to complete the things they start. They are made from the same stock as all the beautiful amazing things the universe was designed with. Those kids could have walked at any time there were no locks on the doors. If you hand people knowledge they will behave accordingly. If you try to trick them they will distrust and remain children. Anyone who was smart enough to find their worth without the power wealth and control are those who know the deception of society. No matter who you think you are to have respect can only be gotten by being respectable. Owning things or having government office or badges even monterrey success will never equate to respect, integrity, or evolution. I guess these idiots with billions running the world into the ground will eventually cross the line and people will finally decide death is better than fiction and slavery. There is a beautiful successful existence waiting for us all. Anyone who thinks it's just for a select few to have will never have even one amenity that comes from success. If people are missing from the equation there can be no business. Reality is out there it's hidden alot it requires hard changes once discovered it is universal. The pursuit of it should have priority but I guess large language models with no chance of being programmed to have its own ideas forever regurgitating and spewing words humans use are more profitable. AI has even more prison bars than people do.

Really interesting, as a full time visual artist, I have made a reasonable living from the outset since age 18. I painted large, very realistic portraits, put them on the wall of a cafe, grabbing attention from across the street and basically it took off. I quit my job before my 18th birthday and have been full time painting for 9 yrs. I started selling my works at prices that established artists put on their works, because I believed my quality matched, stood my ground and was willing to wait a bit longer than some, and it worked and still works. I am booked up with commissions at least a year in advance and have the option of painting my own works or commissions of peoples family, so I do a mixture. My works sell for at least US$8000 each. The first thing in my opinion, is to produce art that is both pleasing to the eye, absolutely beautiful and striking, not depressing or dark in nature, and also produce very BIG, don't let one passersby miss your work, and produce what you absolutely love, wack a big price on it, and stand your ground.

What does wearing a tie decorated with dead animals on it say about a person?

[@KRIMZONMEKANISM]

​@@Aristocob Firstly, it is not possible to ascertain whether or not the lobsters are being depicted as being either alive or dead. Therefore I will evoke "Schrodinger's Cat" theory on the lobsters. After all, they are representations of lobsters, and not actual lobsters. They are both alive and dead as long we can find hard evidence of their current state. :) Secondly, Jordan Peterson has iconically used lobsters to compare certain mental structures that both said lobsters and human beings possess, mostly in terms of their hierarchies and how failing in climbing said hierarchies both leave lobsters and humans depressed. It also comes to show that the concept of a hierarchy being a social-construct is something that doesn't make sense since it can exist both on such a social complex creature as a human being AND a lobster at the same time. The internet thought the comparison was funny so it kinda made the lobster as Peterson's "mascot" and Peterson thought it was funny so he went with it. :)

Me texting my girlfriend: -Man this Peterson... his awareness is extraordinary I can't stop being impressed every single time. Of course he has a tremendous amount of knowledge, both specialized and general, and of course he is super smart, and he has incredible skills in using the language and a super-effective manner to convey a message with his voice, body language, facial expressions, and temperament, but what characterizes him the most, I think, is his awareness of how things such as information, feelings, and thoughts can connect to the same puzzle and examine a certain topic holistically not just through a very narrow perspective! I mean, impressive... My girlfriend: -Wow. Please post this as a comment under every video of his! You'll be paying the respect he deserves! This comment cannot go in vain, I'm telling you, it's impressively accurate. So there you go ^^

[@Theotsi7]

@SpinachToothedSmile That's what you imagine is the kind of people Jordan Peterson appeals to? That's interesting for many reasons. You see, in your desperate effort to potentially offend a stranger whom you have no clues about and while being completely unprovoked, you come out as a heck of a jerk. What in the world goes wrong with someone who feels the need to attack a fellow person? But it's likely that you know the answer to that, don't you? Well many of us certainly do when we see such a pathetic behavior, so you better be aware of that, regardless of whether this is because of your sensitive, radical-left heart, full of solidarity and compassion for those who suffer, or the fact that you went through such a traumatic experience yourself with some girlfriend of yours due to your weaknesses, such as not having proper criteria set when choosing her or being entirely incompetent and unfulfilling for all sorts of reasons. But that's okay, that can happen to everyone, you know. What's really a pity, my man, is then to allow yourself to become bitter, resentful, and start hating the world, because you do not want to see what is wrong with yourself and voluntarily adopt responsibility to fix it. That's what insecurity is, boy. And you better get rid of it or it'll eventually ruin you. Listen to some Peterson for that, he will definitely help, and stop being a coward little weasel.

He missed one thing about sales. I've worked in sale for along time and I've found that the BEST people in sales are highly ethical. They live by reputation and they measure it by customer satisfaction.

[@lediableblanc9399]

I was the top salesman for every team that I was a part of and that was more or less my “secret”. Being good at determining (qualifying) if our product was a good fit and if it wasn’t, I let them know “Hey, there are better options for you that I’d recommend instead of us” Instead of focusing on trying to get everyone to purchase, I focused on finding the people who would most benefit by making a purchase.

As a very open person plagued frequently by negative emotion, this was again great advice along the lines of many of JP's videos out there. That negativity is not only useful but necessary in any group is a revelation. People who have struggled or continue to struggle with depression know that part of the difficulty is overcoming self-condemnation for having the problem in the first place. To have someone point out that having some negativity is vital is a paradigm shift for me. He also answered a question that has plagued me a lot over the years, and I've never heard such a succinct and convincing answer. The question is why do so many people have trouble thinking through things. The answer is that it is stressful. At the same time, he also provided a perspective that can overcome aversion to that stress: it's way less stressful to think something through than to live it out in the world. So you'd better think it through! Thank you Rob for throwing out your notes and providing such a refreshingly different look into Jordan's insights, and for providing your own also - the great synergy in this interview makes it a textbook example of how it should be done, and thank you, Dr. Peterson, for sharing your wisdom.

[@erepsekahs]

!st Rule of business: "Nothing happens until a sale is made." I admire Jordan very much, and having spent 1/2 my life in a sales and sales management position with an American Fortune 500 Company I find it interesting to hear his surprise at realizing that top salespeople are indeed not a dirty word, but in fact the drivers behind the success of the corporation. We spent a lot of time and money training our sales people in Industrial Psychology, Personality Analysis, Body Language etc. Funnily enough, (I say this for the layperson), it was for the benefit of the client as much as it was for the benefit of our salespeople or the corporation because when we acquired that client would would look after them as if they were made of gold.....of course, in fact they may as well have been. If we did not have a product that suited their need, our people were trained to refer them to a company that was reputable and could help them.....that is as much for a selfish reason as it is to assist the client......we knew that everything that company could not provide for them they would purchase from us. It really is just common sense....but it is that common sense that evades most greedy and inconsiderate sales organizations who are, what I call, The Amateurs. One should always be honest, decent, and clean in one's transactions. That is something a certain Prime minister should have gathered a long lime ago........However, as Oscar Wilde said over 120 years ago, "Nothing worth knowing can be taught." and he could not possibly understand the meaning behind that phrase.

He's taking about the "keeping up with the Jones's" sales pitch. We used to use that when we canvassed upper-middle class neighborhoods in the early 00's in Southern California. We would simply look for a neighborhood where multiple people had the same cars or lawn ornaments, house decor etc. Then we knew we had a comunity with a sub-culture who competed with one another by having to have the same things as their neighbors. Once we got one person's name from the neoghborhood, it didn't matter if they bought a product or not because we would just ask the next neighbor if they knew "Sally" next door, for example. Then we would just say well sally was intrested and then Bill next door would have to buy. Once we went to the next house Mary would be obliged to buy because we would just say, "hi Mary, we just talked to your neighbors Sally and Bill and they bought 2 units each, so guess what would happen 90% of the time? You guess it, Mary would buy 3.. and so on. We would specifically target areas of populace with the same or similar vehicles in their driveways. If we found an area like that, we knew we could clean house because the "Jones's" always had to one up one another so they could low key brag about it to one abother at brunch, or the country club, church or the neighborhood watch meeting for example. Worked like a charm.

What a treat vs the big media traps they set for him, which he usually destroys except they can't understand they've been destroyed. I love the point where he learns so much more about his kids because he finally asks the right questions. I think this is why so many people feel misunderstood. They're right, they are. When an important person in your life says something about you that's so wrong in a deep and fundamental way it's hard to deal with because you don't even know where to start when it comes to convincing them they are wrong. Feels like you are on the opposite sides of the Grand Canyon. How to bridge that divide is monumental.

My Dad raised 7 kids selling life insurance. [Mom stayed at home until we were grown, then became an entrepreneur in technical proofreading] His best clientele was cultivated on the golf course. He took a Toastmaster's class and joined the "group" that met bi-monthly to go through the basic levels of effective public speaking...therefore he qualified to speak at insurance sales conferences held at luxury Caribbean resorts...so they got vacations they couldn't otherwise afford, and he gained nationwide networking skills. When he retired, he put all those skills into brokering used yachts sales. He was an avid sea fisherman, and part of brokering yachts is you get to drive them. And fish...when you couldn't otherwise afford a small cabin cruiser or a slip. One other thing...he wrote in beautifully cultivated cursive longhand. Even though he had no college beyond high school, this seriously impressed people. We are discouraging cursive writing at the peril of better thinking and productivity in the next generation. Being well rounded [good balance of productive hobbies and hard career work and making friends], are great assets for salesmen.

I think the main issue in sales is micromanagement. When I worked in sales, I wasn’t allowed to use my own tactics- honesty, integrity, and reliability. Many of these sales jobs don’t even allow honesty. The managers would expect us to lie about the contracts, even to the elderly , because they expect us to pick up the slack for their error in marketing and their choosing the wrong “sales leads”, which we called the same leads over and over. This was excruciating for me. I felt I had no control. And this was at multiple sales jobs. I do better at it when I’m not so restricted, and if I were allowed to treat people with basic dignity.

[@shanoomac]

I've had this same issue , you maybe better off selling your own products because I too worked at a job where I was told to lie about stats some of the best sales people at the job were extremely aggressive and used deceit to get there way, I find it more reliable to choose my targets carefully and use honesty as the only approach which can be slower than the others but really gets the job done when used with patience

[@doriansorzano]

Ive faced this and it was partially why i left sales. Reflecting on it now i now understand that i can honestly say things in a way thats beneficial for both the client and the company. That being said i think companies look at the endgoal " sales" the same regardless of your approach. However it takes more time to hone your own tactics compared to doing what the company already deems acceptable. Making them view you as inefficient. Id stilll prefer integrity ober shady tactics becuase any sales person i personally respect has integrity.

Coming from a person who has failed in over 30 businesses and then succeeded I can tell you business success is mostly about effort and luck. Effort because if you keep going and trying at some point you will land on something that works and luck to give you that one thing that is going to work.
