- Work Ethic
If you haven’t done a full commission job before, you’re going to get screwed up without the right mindset. You want to get that money at the end of the day.
Figure out what their ramp up week is. It’s typical scenario that they’re going to train you. And you have to pay for rent. And if you didn’t make any money that week, they’d float you for that week but only for a certain number of weeks.
Then you need to figure out way and when you start getting money, you pay off the money. Say, the ramp up period is a couple of weeks, which means you start paying for your own stuff afterwards.
So be willing to work hard and be willing to wake up early. Be willing to stay up late and do what you need to get some leads. Have that why. Otherwise, don’t do it.
- Planning
If you don’t close any deal, you get nothing. So if you’re not able to plan your days effectively especially if you’re doing cold-calling, you’re not going to make it.
Make sure you plan out your days and put everything on the calendar. Be totally organized. And if do this, you’re going to be successful.
I’m telling you. It can happen. But you’ve got to hustle. You’ve got to put in the work.
Get Your Mind Right
This includes studying and getting access to knowledge. Read books. Watch videos. Listen to podcasts. Because you need that daily inspiration.
Set apart 30 minutes a day to get your education in as well as some time to get that motivation in.
The path to depression is quick. It’s easy to doubt yourself. And you may think about going back to your job waiting tables. But nothing worthwhile is ever easy.
You have to put some hustle in. But you also don’t want to reinvent the wheel. So go with an organizations that already have all these eight things in place.
