Success in sales heavily relies on the number of strategy sessions conducted, which directly correlates to client acquisition. Individuals who struggle to secure clients often do not engage in enough sales calls, with an average of around 30 needed to secure the first client. To master sales, more than 100 calls are necessary, aiming for a baseline conversion rate of 20%. Daily practice, persistence, and consistency, particularly the habit of conducting strategy sessions, is essential. Those reaching six figures typically engage in one to three strategy sessions daily, while those achieving seven figures have completed over a thousand calls. Establishing a routine through a trigger-action-reward framework further enhances the likelihood of achieving substantial financial success.
Most people suffer from the "natural giftedness" delusion. They think that successful people are born naturals who master things immediately -- and -- If they try something new and they're not good at it and confident on the first few tries, it's just not meant to be. This sort of thinking is fucked up. Everybody is born into this world the same way. Everything must be learned through practice. Sheer repetition, consistency and time. You will NEVER be successful in life or business until you turn the hard things you avoid doing into base instincts. Things you execute on all day, every day, without even thinking. To do this you have to go through a few stages: The first one is to brute force your way through, then turn it into a habit, then turn it into a base instinct. The magic happens when hard things become base instincts.
