The Sales Stoic

April 11th - Listen more than you speak


Listen Later

Actionable tips:

  • In your next client meeting, focus on listening more than speaking. Take note of their needs and concerns without jumping to conclusions.
  • Instead of assuming you know what will work, ask questions to uncover deeper insights. This will not only show your interest but also help you tailor your pitch effectively.

“Let go of your preconceived notions, because it’s impossible to learn anything if you think you already know it all.” - Epictetus


In sales, clinging to what we think we know can limit our growth. And pride can keep us closed off from recognising opportunities to learn.

Like The Avengers, who each bring unique strengths and are open to learning from one another, we too must stay humble.

Embrace feedback from peers and clients, and be open to new ideas.

Every prospect conversation is a learning opportunity; don’t let pride stand in the way of growth.

Stay humble, adapt, and improve.

Remember you will die.
