The premise behind \u201cgoing for the no\u201d is that you should make it a goal to hear and to meet with a resistance and rejections, as opposed to making it a goal to succeed and hear your prospect say yes. The difference between salespeople who achieve mediocre success and salespeople who achieve great success is that great salespeople have a different attitude about\"\"<\/a> rejection. They can handle rejection a lot better than the mediocre salespeople. Great salespeople don\u2019t see it as something to be feared or avoided. It goes back to the idea of your professional self and your personal self. Therefore, they don\u2019t convince themselves not to take rejection personally. They see rejection as something positive, something they can learn from. They are convinced that they will be able to get a yes for every no they receive. They know that every time they hear no they will get closer to hearing a yes, and sometimes the value of 1 yes is greater than the cost of 100 no’s.<\/p>\n
