In sales, it is easy to have blinders on trying to close every possible deal. This is because making a sale means making money, in the short term. Salespeople can find themselves burning out and allowing people to drag them around in hopes of closing the deal. This sends a bad message to prospective clients because if you carry yourself as desperate, people will see you as such. If people see you as desperate for their business, you will come across as having your best interest at heart beyond theirs, which is also bad for business.<\/p>\n
If someone is dragging you around because they might buy from you, and they are not treating you with respect, you should walk away from the business. Doing this shows them you are not desperate and gives you more time and energy to invest in potential clients that do treat you with respect.<\/p>\n
The more energy you have to pour into these relationships, the more you will enjoy your work life and the more your business will increase. Sometimes passing up short-term deals will more than pay off in the long-term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
