As someone who wouldn't in a million years buy anything from anyone who was trying to sell me something, how do I learn sales?


Come on now, you buy things every day.

The secret isn’t making everyone say yes but to have as few people as possible tell you no.


I never thought I'd do sales. For B2B, read: - The Challenger Sale - Value Based Fees - Pitch Anything


+1 for The Challenger Sale https://www.amazon.com/Challenger-Sale-Control-Customer-Conv....

It really made me better at handling customers, even as non-sales


You can't till you over come this mental barrier. There is this great book called To sell is human. Try giving it a read.
