Rejection is part of sales. It's unavoidable. Not everyone is going to buy what you are selling, therefore you will be rejected.
In spite of this fact, many sales people struggle with rejection, hampering their ability to get deals closed and move with confidence.
When we are afraid of failure we move tentatively, we are unsure and it shows in how we operate.
Failure of rejection isn't just a "sales person" problem. Everyone lives with some level of fear or rejection.
This guy Jia Jiag was rejected by a major VC for investment in his company. He was so dejected he didn't know how to deal with it. After doing the research and learning about how rejection works, he decided to get better at handling rejection.
For the next 100 days, Jia is creating crazy, unrealistic request designed to have him be rejected. In this one, Jia asks to be a live Abercrombie model.
Jia's video's are hilarious, entertaining and creative. He's asked to cut the Best Buy line on Thursday night of Black Friday. He's asked a car sales person to teach him to sell and he's asked an employee at Krispy Kreme to make a donut Olympic rings.
Check out Jia's videos. They just might make it easier for you to accept rejection and that would make you a better sales person.
