Selling is a contact sport. If you can\u2019t roll with the sales punches, you get knocked out. You need to get back up, and close.\u201d This quote off of Catherine Brinkman\u2019s LinkedIn is a metaphor discussed throughout this video interview, hosted by John Golden. In sales, if you knocked down over and over again, it becomes harder to get back up. It is even harder to get back into it, becoming exposed to another flurry of potential punches. Salespeople can often get stuck in this rut, making it difficult to hear repeated \u201cno\u2019s.
