Curiosity: A Pre-Requisite to Success in Sales


Some professions require years of schooling or some other advanced degree of something.


Not Sales.


Success in sales requires 2 main items.


Curiosity & Common Sense


Obviously there are many other skills and abilities that make up a Fantastic Sales Person, but these are simply two pre-requisites that will open that door for you.


Why Curiosity?


Well, simply put, you need to be curious or inquisitive about everything. You need to be curious about:



  • Your Clients

  • Your Product

  • Your Current Skills

  • Your Future Skills

Natural curiosity will keep you asking questions and listening to answers just as you would in a conversation with a close friend.


Curiosity will keep you interested in learning the tiny little nuances and intricate details of your product.


It will allow you to give yourself a "REAL" gauge of how efficient and effective your current skill level is and what it might be like if you improve.


How curious are you?
