Developing skills sales

[Byakko]

Hi guys! So I'm currently in a situation where I need to learn how to sell. I have never been in a position where I have to sell a product, so I'm a complete beginner. Where do you think I should start learning about it? Do you know any books or courses I should read/do? Or blogs I should follow? Right now the skills I know I need are "How to cold call", "How to do a video presentation" and "How to build a sales page". Thank you for your help!

Life is sales. Though you may think you've never been in the position where you had to sell a product, I'm willing to bet you've had the opportunity to convince someone to do something. Sales is simply the art of persuasion. Practicing the art of both written and verbal persuasion in everyday interaction will help you improve your sales "skills."

For a non-conventional--yet extremely practical--approach to sales, I'd recommend Sell or Be Sold by Grant Cardone.

You don't need to learn, just suck at it, do it. Then get better along the way learning *WHY* you suck. Best method IMO. My first cold service sell, I winged it lol, make sure you get used to rejection. It will be your best friend for quite a long time....
