In today’s special episode of The Sales Evangelist, Donald discusses the highlights of his new book! Sell It Like a Mango, available on Amazon or at thesalesevangelist.com/mango, is full of principles, practices, and tips to sell your product through a shift in mindset and approach to sales.  The premise of the book: Donald saw many mango vendors in the street growing up in Jamaica. But they all sold the same product! So, why did some mangos sell better than others? Because the seller made the deal. If your product has value, you sell it at that value. Donald set up a mango stand in his front yard, but people couldn’t see him and didn’t come.  The takeaway? Get outside your comfort zone to be a successful seller. This applies to everyone - people will sell the same thing as you, so you need to stand out. In the book, Donald points out common sales misconceptions: Misconception 1: My role as a seller is to convince the buyer to make a purchase. The real job is to educate the buyer to know they should make a purchase. Misconception 2: The work doesn’t require a drive. Whether that’s a passion for the product or a desire to be in a better financial state, drive to sell is what will sell. What else can you learn? Handling and overcoming rejection. Sellers often encounter rejection, and it can be stressful and disheartening to experience. How can you bounce back? Identify and attract the right prospect. Because while your product might be able to benefit everyone, you shouldn’t try to sell to everyone. How to think like an entrepreneur. Sales reps don’t have the business on their back - if you don’t hit a quota, your business won’t fall apart. But how do you overcome adversities to succeed?  Closing. The “close” doesn’t have to be an event. Don’t blow it out of proportion! You need to understand that nothing happens until you help people commit. Help prospects commit to minor things throughout the journey, like scheduling demos and signing papers to make it easier to close later!
