Sales training that just says work harder and develop thicker skin is backwards. You can't learn sales on the job, which is why the industry has brutal attrition rates. Making more calls without real skill doesn't create any edge.

Oh, you just got to work harder. You got to call more leads, you got to knock more doors, you got to get more no's to get to the s. You just told all those salespeople that what you're training them doesn't really work that well. So unfortunately, you're just going to have to work harder and get thicker skin. I'm like, how does that give a salesperson competitive advantage? There's going to work more hours. Sales people in industry have one of the. I think it's the highest attrition rate out of any profession in the world. Besides maybe like a police officer. I think it's the highest attrition rate is because salespeople somehow believe they can get a sales job and then learn how to sell after they get the sales job. And I'm like, what profession can you not know how to do? And you just learn once you get started.
