Published: Oct. 4, 2022, 2 p.m.

b'Nothing worthwhile ever came easy, and sales is no different. It\\u2019s going to be difficult, so you need to be ready. The good news is lots of people go into sales and find success, so there\\u2019s no real reason why you wouldn\\u2019t be the same way. In this first of a four-part episode of the Peak Performance Selling podcast, our host Jordan talks about his own sales journey and how he survives rejection, particularly the Law of Averages. \\n \\nHIGHLIGHTS\\nFrom sales to accounting and finance, then back again\\nGoing to the gym and getting into tech sales \\nSales is tough, so toughen up \\nConsider the Law of Averages \\n\\nQUOTES\\nJohnny on what makes sales difficult: "It\'s a tough game. Sales isn\'t easy. You\'re asked to take a lot of NOs. But there are some companies that will ask you to make a hundred dials a day in hopes to get 5 to 10 people. That\'s 90 NOs, that\'s 90 doors in your face. It takes a lot to keep moving forward from that." \\n\\nWhy you need to push through rejection, says Johnny: "You might feel like you\'re going through a low, but I always believe in the law of averages. You\'re going to go through a low, [but] a high is coming. It might take a little while to get there, but I know it\'s coming."\\n\\nYou can connect with Johnny in the link below:\\nLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-occean/\\n\\nIf you\\u2019re listening to the Peak Performance Selling Podcast, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.\\nLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanbenjamin/\\nWebsite - http://mycoreos.com/\\nPodcast - https://www.mycoreos.com/podcast\\nEmail - Jordan@MyCoreOS.com\\nTwitter - https://twitter.com/jbenj09'
