Money and Success: The Power of Attention

“People hate being sold, but they love to buy.”

Logic helps justify a purchase, but emotion drives the decision.
Sell feelings, not just features.
🔹 Example: Don't just say, "This car has 300 horsepower." Say, "Imagine the thrill of driving it."

People Buy Emotions, Not Logic

People always find money for things they value.


Focus on value, not price.

 
🔹 Example: “Would you spend ₹10,000 on something that guarantees ₹1,00,000 in returns?”

Price is Never the Real Obstacle

 <ul>
 <li>Success requires hard work, not just talent. 🎖️</li>
 <li>10 times more effort can lead to 100 times the results. 💪</li>
 <li>People who outwork others have a competitive advantage. 🏆</li>
 </ul>

The Law of 10X – Outwork Everyone Else

“If you don’t sell them your idea, they will sell you theirs.”

True conviction creates confidence and trust. 
 If you don't believe in what you sell, no one else will. 

<ul>
<li> The key to successful selling is being sold on your product. </li>
<li> Customers can sense hesitation and doubt in a salesperson, which can lead to skepticism about the product. </li>
<li> Be confident in your belief in your product, and your customers will believe in it too. </li>
</ul>

🔹 Example: A hesitant salesperson makes customers doubt their product.

The #1 Rule of Selling: Be Sold on Your Product

“People do not buy the best product; they buy the best-known product.”

🔹 Your attitude shapes your results.
🔹 Always expect a sale - never assume rejection.
🔹 If you expect a "yes", you act with confidence.

The Power of a Positive Mindset

“Success is your duty, obligation, and responsibility.”

In sales, fear can prevent success. Rejection and hesitation often lead to failure. Taking action is the key to overcoming fear.
🔹 Example: Don’t overthink, make the sales call immediately.

Fear Kills Sales – Take Massive Action

Rejection is not real. It's just people needing more information.



 Fear and confusion cause people to say no. But, no is just a call for more certainty. 



 🔹 Example: Instead of accepting a "no," ask "What's stopping you from saying yes?"
