Think negative or think positive is a choice and a process. Negative is (unfortunately) an instinctive process. Positive is a learned self-discipline that must be studied and practiced every day.</p><p>To achieve a positive attitude, you must take physical, verbal and mental actions. Here are a few short chunks of attitude &#8211; awareness and actions &#8211; that will help put you (or keep you) on the positive path:</p><p>1. Admit it is the fault of no one but your own. The more you blame others, the less chance you have to think positive thoughts, see a positive solution, or take positive action toward solution. The opposite of blame is responsibility. Your first responsibility is to control your inner thoughts and thought direction.</p><p>2. Understand you always have (had) a choice. Attitude is a choice and most people select from the negative column. Reason? It is more natural to blame and defend than it is to admit and take responsibility.</p><p>3. If you think it is OK, it is; if you think it is not OK, than it is not. Your thoughts direct your attitude to a path. If you think: this is crappy, why does this always happen to me, then you have chosen a path. If you think, wow, this may not be the greatest, but look what I am learning, than you learn what not to do again.</p><p>4. Invest time, do not spend it. Ignore the local junk news. Find a project, or make a plan to sell something or meet with someone who buys or teaches instead. You will become a world-class expert in five years. The only question is: at what? Spend (invest) an hour a day in anything and in five years you will be a world-class expert.</p><p>5. Study the thoughts and writings of positive people. Read Napoleon Hills Think &amp; Grow Rich.</p><p>6. Listen to tapes and CDs by positive thinkers of the world: Zig Ziglar, Denis Waitley, Wayne Dyer and as many others as you can find.</p><p>7. Attend seminars and take courses. Enroll in a Dale Carnegie program.</p><p>8. Check your language gauge. Do you say half full or half empty, partly cloudy or partly sunny? They are just words, but they are a reflection of how your mind sees things and an indication of how you process thoughts. Avoid confrontational and negative words. The worst ones are: why, ca not, will not and should.</p><p>9. Say why you LIKE things and people, not why you do not I like my job because I love my family. Say things from the positive side enough and it becomes a habit you will revel in for life.</p><p>10. Help others without expectation or measuring. If you give it away freely, you do not every have to worry about the measurement. The world will reward you 10 times over.</p><p>11. Think about your winning and losing words. Lose with: They do not pay me enough to. That is not my job. IF you say: Why should I when he… then really, who loses? Think learn, lessons, experience and solutions before you make a statement.</p><p>12. Think about your mood and your mood swings. How long do you stay in a bad mood? If it is more than five minutes, something is wrong. And your attitude (and relationships, results and success) will suffer.</p><p>13. Are you the head of the complaint department and the chief complainer? Many people slip into cynicism day by day. They become bitter because of jealousy or envy of other people or their own misfortune. Big mistake.</p><p>List the lessons you can learn from those you have bitterness for and the results will turn your thinking toward your own success and away from theirs.</p><p>1. Celebrate victory and defeat. Winning and losing are part of life and apart from attitude. Visit a childrens hospital. Get comfortable with the plight of others and feel good about the minuteness your problems compared to theirs.</p><p>2. Count your blessings every day. Start with health if you are fortunate enough to have it. Add the love of children and family. From there it is easy to build the list. Want an instant lesson? Go out and buy a copy of The Little Engine That Could. It is a philosophy for a lifetime!</p><p> <span style="">Pj Germain<br /> <a rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" href="http://coloredcontactlens.portal-source.com/index1.html">Colored Contact Lens</a><br /> <a rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" href="http://cooking.mybiz-successu.com/1/index.html">Best Cooking Tips</a><br /> <a rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" href="http://cp.portal-source.com/index1.html">Cerebral Palsy Resources</a> <br class="clear" /><a rel="dofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/coaching-articles/achieve-positive-attitude-through-selfdiscipline-79341.html">Article Source</a></span><br /><h4>Related Blogs</h4><ul class='pc_pingback'><li><a href='http://www.techzene.com/seo/rel-nofollow-seo-disadvantages/'>rel=<b>nofollow</b> Attribute With Inner Links &#8211; Advantages <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://www.raestate.com/2010/08/01/holiday-homes-in-florida-make-your-choice/'>Holiday Homes in Florida – Make your <b>choice</b>! | raestate</a></li><li><a href='http://www.aajmedia.com/news/2010/08/hope-over-health-responsibility/'>Hope over health &#39;<b>responsibility</b>&#39; |AajMedia News</a></li><li><a href='http://stockexchangeupdates.investmentsandmoney.com/?p=1490'>Stock Exchange Updates » Blog Archive » <b>Rel</b> Infra Q1 PAT seen down <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://moso-technology.com/blog/2010/08/green-mountain-coffee-environmental-responsibility/'>Green Mountain Coffee &amp; Environmental <b>Responsibility</b> | MoSo <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://magicaldentistry.com/?p=2666'>Marines in the Philippines-com-<b>rel</b> | FACTS IN DENTISTRY AND DENTAL <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://www.trafficgenerationcafe.com/does-nofollow-follow/'>Does <b>NoFollow</b> Follow? | Traffic Generation Cafe | Generate <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://www.thebudgetfashionista.com/archive/target-fall-2010-accessories-collection/'><b>Target</b> Fall 2010 Accessories Collection | The Budget Fashionista</a></li><li><a href='http://www.thebaseballopinion.com/?p=4051'>&lt;a <b>href</b>=&quot;http://www.thebaseballopinion.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www <b>&#8230;</b></a></li><li><a href='http://www.thebaseballopinion.com/?p=4059'>&lt;a <b>href</b>=&quot;http://www.thebaseballopinion.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www <b>&#8230;</b></a></li></ul><p></p><p><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"><img src="http://bemadsblog.com/wp-content/plugins/add-to-any/share_save_171_16.png" width="171" height="16" alt="Share/Bookmark"/></a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://bemadsblog.com/self-improvement/achieve-positive-attitude-through-self-discipline/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>5 Easy Ways to Develop a Positive Attitude</title><link>http://bemadsblog.com/self-improvement/5-easy-ways-to-develop-a-positive-attitude</link> <comments>http://bemadsblog.com/self-improvement/5-easy-ways-to-develop-a-positive-attitude#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:16:51 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Robbie</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[self improvement]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Affirmation]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Affirmations]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Circumstance]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Free Time]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fulfillment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Fun]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Habit]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Happy Day]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Hobbies]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Negative Attitudes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Negative Person]]></category> <category><![CDATA[People]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Attitude]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Attitudes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Energy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Outlook]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Thought]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Quality Of Life]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Self Esteem]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Spea]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://bemadsblog.com/?p=1077</guid> <description><![CDATA[You may not notice it but attitude is everything especially when it comes to your quality of life.

You tend to bring into your life the things that you focus on the most. I am sure you know of at least one person who has a terrible attitude. This could be someone who is extremely negative, not fun to be around and would always complain about how her life is horrible and everything seems to go wrong. These kinds of people drain our positive energy.</p><p>Negative attitudes are contagious. They not only make you feel terrible but those around you will feel the strain as well. No one wants to hang out with a negative person.</p><p>The good thing is that positive attitudes are contagious too. The difference is that people do like to hang out with positive people because it makes everyone feel good about themselves. If you want to be the kind of person that everyone wants to be with, here are 5 easy steps to help you achieve that:</p><p>1) Figure out what you love and do it. This includes activities you enjoy doing, hobbies, things you like to do in your free time and most importantly your job or career. If you start questioning yourself about how much joy and fulfillment you get from your job and realize that you no longer are happy then perhaps it&#8217;s time to consider a new career or options you can take to move to a new career. When you do things that make you happy, you feel better about yourself, have a positive outlook at life and you begin to project a positive attitude.</p><p>2) No matter what, expect the best. Although it seems easier to see the negative in every situation, turn around and look for the positive in everything. Make it a habit to expect the best out of every circumstance. Recite an affirmation, &#8220;Everything will work out great. Everything will fall into place. Today will be a happy day!&#8221; The more often you recite affirmations, the easier it will be for you to believe that positive things do happen.</p><p>3) Boost your self-esteem. Think positive thought and speak positive words to yourself everyday. I&#8217;m sure you have at one point of time talked down on yourself. Negative self-talk makes you feel hopeless, pessimistic and frustrated. Acknowledge your good qualities and stop focusing on the negative ones. You may not be perfect but you are a work in progress and on you&#8217;re way to greatness!</p><p>4) Compliment others. Take a moment to encourage others. Try to compliment the people you meet each day &#8211; both strangers and the usual people you see. Emphasize on the positive in others and you will be more likeable. If you have more people like you, then, you will like yourself more.</p><p>5) Be strong. Think about your strengths instead on focusing on your weaknesses. Thinking about your &#8220;failures&#8221; will only make you feel negative and pessimistic. Continue to affirm your strengths and talents everyday. This will help empower yourself and you will soon feel in control of every situation around you. Being in control promotes a positive attitude</p><p> <span style="">If you&#8217;re ready to boost your self esteem and live a happier life, I recommend picking up a copy of the <a rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" href="http://www.reallifeguidance.com/journey-to-joy.html"> Journey To Joy</a> Guide.

If you have negative thoughts, your attitude tends to be just as negative and if you have positive thoughts your attitude will be just as positive. You cannot expect to have a good attitude when all of your thoughts tell you that life is hard, full of disappointment and that it&#8217;s you against the world.</p><p>I want you to try this quick experiment so that you can see how your thoughts really do affect your perceptions on life, as well as your attitude. Think of your best friend and the unconditional love and support shared between the two of you&#8230;</p><p>Did you smile without meaning to? Did you remember a specific time when your friend showed unconditional love and support for you? Did you notice that your attitude brightened while thinking about your best friend? Chances are very good that this is the experience you had by thinking about something positive.</p><p>You were asked to do this quick experiment about positive thinking so that you could experience for yourself how your thoughts affect your attitude. While articles like this are informational and useful, I have always found that they are even more helpful when I can relate to them on a personal level like the experiment above, which positive thinking allowed me to do. I understand what people mean when they say that positive thoughts equal a positive attitude.</p><p>How do our thoughts and attitudes play a role in how life treats us? Our thoughts and attitude determines the way we perceive our life. Negative thoughts and a negative attitude will cause us to perceive everyday occurrences negatively. While positive thoughts and a positive attitude will cause us to perceive everyday occurrences positively. People with negative perceptions often make mountains out of mole hills so to speak.</p><p>Small things become a very big deal and people with negative attitudes always seem to be the ones that have bad things happening to them on a daily basis. They were late to work. They forgot their lunch at home. Traffic was bad when they got off. The cable was out. You get the idea. Unbeknownst to them is the very real fact that due to their negativity they are missing out on the good things, great and small that are trying to come into their lives.</p><p>Through our attitude we send messages to the people around us, and it is not hard to pick out the negative thinkers in the crowd because they usually have sour attitudes and we know one causes the other. Most people do not find negativity attractive. You can significantly improve your relationships with positive thoughts and a positive attitude.</p><p>If we are in a negative mode and perceiving our lives in that manner, we are actually creating an existence wherein we attract negativity to us while repelling anything positive. When we do this to ourselves we rationalize that life is just out to get us. We seethe inside as life seems to be going good for everyone else but us. Life is energy. It is not an entity with the power to wage a battle against you. Life is comprised of both good and bad things. The degree to which you will recognize and enjoy the good and cope with the bad is determined by how you perceive these things. And your perceptions are shaped by your thoughts and attitude.</p><p>In closing I leave you with this. Indulge in a life of positive thoughts which will equal a positive attitude and life will be good to you. Instead of thinking that the grass is greener on the other side, make your grass the greenest grass that you have ever seen. If you positively believe in your own success, then you can make it happen. Remember that your thoughts have power.</p><p> <span style="">Scott White is a certified personal trainer and nutritionist.

In reality motivation comes from a person&#8217;s belief, which helps him/her to achieve his/her goal. Purpose,Desire,Direction and Dedication are the qualities necessary to experience real motivation.</p><p>People motivate themselves by understanding their needs and wants. It could be Tangible Gifts,Rewards or Intangible growth,Appreciation,Recognition and a lot more, as it varies from person to person. How does motivation work in your case? If you Understand how motivation works for you, then your Internal Motivation will drive you to achieve your goals and lead you toward success.</p><p>People motivate themselves by inculcating in themselves, the belief responsible for actions and behaviour and creating a vision that helps them to outweigh the challenges that might come before them and accept their responsibilities in life. Lack of motivation brings life to a standstill,failure or fear of failure demotivates people and their pattern of their everyday life.On the contrary a motivated person has a spark in his eyes, always looks for new challenges and ways he can improve himself.</p><p>It could be said that real motivation starts from within a person based on how there needs are being consistently met. Without going into a long drawn out explanation of Abraham Maslow&#8217;s hierarchy of needs I will state some of the conclusions. The most basic of needs stated by Abraham Maslow was the need to survive. Until that need is consistently met the other needs for all practical purposes cease to exist. Once that need is met then the individual is now ready to fulfill the other needs that may exist for themselves. These can be readily determined by there own specific paradigm of life. A person&#8217;s paradigm is just the LENSES they tend to consistently see life through. A set of beliefs that color there experience and interpretation of all that surrounds them. There is no real change until a person&#8217;s paradigm changes. But the motivation to make a paradigm change leads us to the next section.</p><p>SELF MOTIVATION AND YOU</p><p>If you are a person who is disciplined, goal-oriented, organized and instant, it means that you have the skills to motivate yourself. It means that you have a sense of achievement and that&#8217;s how motivation actually works. For you to become the person that you are today.</p><p>Motivation is temporary and short lived and hence it needs to be strengthened constantly to succeed. Negative thoughts and anxiety come into play and we can become demotivated and dubious about our future. However,just by accepting the challenges to move forward, one can get motivated as he will have the will and commitment to be successful,Accepting the failures,learning it as a lesson in life,helps us to move on to the next stage of success.</p><p>CONCLUSION</p><p>Self motivated person knows the trick to get motivated after a disappointment and accepts the next obstacle that comes along.

It is a life choice, if you are going to be successful in creating the life of your dreams, you have to believe you are capable of making it happen. No-one else can do this for you, it is up to you so don&#8217;t waste your time believing you can&#8217;t, start believing can. Napoleon Hill says,&#8217; you can be anything you want to be, if only you believe with sufficient conviction and act in accordance with your faith; for whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.&#8217; Decide you are capable of doing anything you want and start working towards it, not tomorrow, not next week, but right now. There is no time like the present that is why they call it a gift.</p><p>Believing in yourself is a choice, it is also about your attitude. How you set your mind to the tasks which will lead toward achieving your goals, your attitude to other people, do you inspire people? Do they trust you? Do you demonstrate persistence when he going gets tough? Take a check on you attitude, is it positive? Do you take full responsibility for your actions? Do you offer forgiveness instead of revenge? A positive attitude is essential in leading a fulfilling life conversely, a negative attitude will never bring you success, so take the time to think about ours and be honest with yourself.</p><p>Have a vision of what you want your life to look like, be specific in every detail. It may be a car, holiday or home that you desire, whatever your desire is, be specific in the details and when you want to have achieved i by. Take the time each day and night to visualize what it will be like living your dream life and how you feel, happy, content, free. Proud that you have achieved your dreams and your faith and belief in yourself has got you to where you want to be.</p><p>St Augustine said, &#8216;faith is to believe what you do not see, the reward of faith is to see what you believe.&#8217;</p><p>Therefore, prepare to succeed, have the faith and belief in yourself to achieve your goals and start your journey, you are worth it.</p><p> <span style="font-size:90%;font-style:italic"> -<br /> About the Author:<br /> Alison and Richard live in the beautiful Brisbane Australia suburb of Wellington Point with their 2 young children.

In other words, <br /> Your Thoughts Create Your Life.</p><p>The reasons for this &#8220;movement&#8221; go beyond just making money.  As Jim Rohn said, &#8220;Set a goal to become a millionaire for what it makes of you to achieve it.&#8221;</p><p>Aside from the money, five very valid reasons are:<br />1.  You will develop the characteristics of a millionaire.  <br /> Millionaires have a positive attitude.  They are action takers and they are not afraid of failures or mistakes.<br />2.  Becoming a millionaire will boost the economy and strengthen the middle class.  Current economic and world events point to the need that we    <br /> become more financially independent.<br />3.  Become a millionaire so that you can teach others to become a millionaire.  Schools don&#8217;t teach people how to become financially educated<br /> so you have a perfect opportunity to share your knowledge and expertise to potentially thousands of people world wide.<br />4.  Become a millionaire to secure financial freedom for you and your family.  Think the government will come to your rescue?  Think again.<br /> Oscar Wilde said, When I was young, I used to think that money was the most important thing in life.  Now that I am old, I know it is.&#8221;<br />5.  Jim Rohn said to become a millionaire because of the person You will become.  You will increase your value in the market place, to society and<br /> to your family and to yourself.</p><p>How will you get there?  You will need a vehicle, in other words, a business, a product or invention, or some other plan you are working on.  If you already have the vehicle that&#8217;s great.  You also need a plan or a road map detailing your exact route.<br />If you are just beginning and need directions and support, read the business plan that I am using.  </p><p>See You At The Top!</p><p> <span style="font-size:90%;font-style:italic"> &#8211;<br /> About the Author:<br /> I am Dana Carmichael, entrepreneur and internet business owner.  I have a passion for personal development and I am always willing to share knowledge and expertise with others.<br /> I live in Dallas TX.

If you handle your stress with optimism and hope, you&#8217;ll come out of the clutches of despair and hopelessness. A positive attitude will also ensure that you stay optimistic in whatever do you do and perform in your life.</p><p>And, let me reassure you right away, I&#8217;m not simply going to twitter on about putting a brave face on adversity and smiling through the pain. Telling yourself, over and over, that &#8220;I&#8217;m OK&#8221; is pretty meaningless if you&#8217;re not. I&#8217;ll leave those sorts of recommendations to others, but not before I point out why they usually do more harm than good.</p><p>A positive attitude then is adjusting your mind to reject negativity in all forms, including negative people, and looking at your daily affairs in only a positive and constructive way. Certainly there will be obstacles and set-backs, failures and disappointments, but someone with a positive attitude thinks of these as stepping stones to success and happiness.</p><p>Pretending to have a positive attitude is not permission to tell untruths, however. The people that are involved in helping to resolve a problem must be told the truth of the circumstances. The point is to try to portray a positive attitude that a solution will be found, and to let your team know that you are not giving up, that you do not believe the situation is hopeless, and the situation will be resolved somehow &#8211; even if you do not really believe any of that yourself.</p><p>Small things become a very big deal and people with negative attitudes always seem to be the ones that have bad things happening to them on a daily basis. They were late to work. They forgot their lunch at home. Traffic was bad when they got off. The cable was out. You get the idea.</p><p>Always keep your sense of humor. People like to be around those who find humor in even the most awkward moments. Learn to laugh and you will be more positive, especially if you can learn to laugh at yourself. don&#8217;t take yourself, or life, too seriously. Life is much too short to waste it moping around in self pity.</p><p>By choosing a positive attitude each day, we are actually attracting more positive experiences, and reducing the likelihood of negative experiences. You may have noticed that each experience often determines the quality of the next experience, causing a chain reaction in our lives.</p><p>A positive attitude is also contagious. You can pass on your enthusiasm by simply being positive around someone who is not positive. A positive attitude can be the difference in you getting a promotion or overcoming an illness. It affects everything you say and do.</p><p>Developing positive mindset are depend on one factor &#8211; state of your brain. If you set your brain to a peak state, you will always have peak &amp; positive mindset. Peak mindset come from how you use your body movement. If you try to use lots of body movement, it will bring to you a mind state which telling you about your mindset &#8211; normally positive. Focus on what you do during that time will bring you excellent results on what you have focused on.</p><p><strong>Read about <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://ayushveda.com/blogs/health/nutrition-and-energy-increase/">increase energy levels</a>.Also read about <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://ayushveda.com/blogs/travel/phi-phi-islands-thailand/">thailand islands</a> and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://ayushveda.com/blogs/education/grading-system-for-class-x-cbse-students/">grading system</a></strong></p><p> <span style="font-size:90%;font-style:italic"><p>Read about ayushveda blogs.</p><p>Article Source:<a target="_blank" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/motivational-articles/a-positive-attitude-1510847.html" title="A Positive Attitude">http://www.articlesbase.com/motivational-articles/a-positive-attitude-1510847.html</a><br /> </span></p><p><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"><img src="http://bemadsblog.com/wp-content/plugins/add-to-any/share_save_171_16.png" width="171" height="16" alt="Share/Bookmark"/></a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/a-positive-attitude/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Good Sales Cold Calls</title><link>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/good-sales-cold-calls</link> <comments>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/good-sales-cold-calls#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 24 Dec 2009 11:46:03 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Robbie</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[relationships]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cold Calling]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cold Calls]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Communication Tips]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Few Moments]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Hundreds Of Miles]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Interaction]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Joke]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Point Of View]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Attitude]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Product Details]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Prospective Customers]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rapid Advancement]]></category> <category><![CDATA[S Sales]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sales People]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sales Person]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Scope]]></category> <category><![CDATA[T Rush]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Technology Times]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Welfare]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Word Cold]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/good-sales-cold-calls</guid> <description><![CDATA[Early in the 1950’s sales people had to travel hundreds of miles, going from door to door to sell their products.

With the rapid advancement technology, times have changed and brought with them new techniques of selling a product. Today all you require to sell a product is &#8211; a phone and a script. Below are some <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.speechclub.com">communication tips</a> to help you make good sales cold calls.</p><p>The concept of Cold Calling is the process of approaching prospective customers or clients, typically via telephone. The word &#8216;cold&#8217; is used here since the person you are calling is not expecting your call or has not specifically asked to be contacted by you. In short, they were not expecting any form of interaction with a sales person at the time.</p><p>Here are a few tips:</p><p>i) First and foremost have implicit information about the product you are selling. Customers tend to ask details and if you falter anywhere during the description of the product, customer tend to become evasive.</p><p>ii) Before you call your customer have a loose script ready. A script meaning a general flow of conversation that you must maintain while talking to a customer. Talk to the customer as a genuine human being who is concerned about their welfare and can be trusted. Don’t be afraid to pause and think for a few moments if they ask something beyond your sales scope.</p><p>iii) If you are calling a regular customer, remember their likes and dislikes. It makes you sound concerned and helpful.</p><p>iv) Making the Call. Keep a positive attitude and start with a strong &#8216;Hello&#8217;. Put some effort into it; feel free to make a light joke or a side comment if it can be done so naturally. Even if you don’t like what you are doing/selling, you have to behave like you do. If the customer sees that you are impressed by your own product, then why should they be enthusiastic about buying it?</p><p>v) Don&#8217;t rush to give out your product details. When describing the product or service you are offering, try to approach the customer from their point of view. If successful, the customer will most likely try to see the goodness of the product from your point of view.</p><p>vi) You have to convince them that you aren’t selling anything; you are just offering them the product details with no pressure on them to buy a thing. For example, if you are trying to sell a laptop, you have to tell them exactly why they should buy your laptop and explain the benefits of your laptop at the cost you offer.</p><p>vii) Ending the call. Know when to close the sale and end the call. Conversely, you must also know when battle is lost, and accept defeat.</p><p>viii) The Golden Rule: Never Argue With The Customer!</p><p>You must always believe in the product you&#8217;re selling, and trust yourself in selling it effectively. Ask yourself, “Would I really buy this?” If the answer is no, then convince yourself. If you can&#8217;t convince yourself, you can forget about convincing the customer. Finally, always keep in mind, that the secret to making good sales cold calls lies not only in the unique selling proposition of the product but also in the persuasive powers of the caller!</p><p>Learn more about <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.speechclub.com">public speaking skills</a> at SpeechClub.com</p><p> <span style="font-size:90%;font-style:italic"><p>Andrew Clayton is a writer with a passion for <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.speechclub.com">great speeches, communication tips, &amp; public speaking skills</a> who enjoys sharing insights about his passion with others</p><p>Article Source:<a target="_blank" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/motivational-articles/good-sales-cold-calls-1619834.html" title="Good Sales Cold Calls">http://www.articlesbase.com/motivational-articles/good-sales-cold-calls-1619834.html</a><br /> </span></p><p><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"><img src="http://bemadsblog.com/wp-content/plugins/add-to-any/share_save_171_16.png" width="171" height="16" alt="Share/Bookmark"/></a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/good-sales-cold-calls/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>How to Maintain the Power of Positive Thinking</title><link>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/how-to-maintain-the-power-of-positive-thinking</link> <comments>http://bemadsblog.com/relationships/how-to-maintain-the-power-of-positive-thinking#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 09 Nov 2009 07:06:29 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Robbie</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[relationships]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Challenges]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Encouragement]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Great Source]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Inspiration]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Mindset]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Positive Attitude]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Power 99]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Power Of Positive Thinking]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Professional Success]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Stress Levels]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://bemadsblog.com/?p=171</guid> <description><![CDATA[The power &#111;&#102; positive thinking &#99;&#97;&#110; &#98;&#101; considered &#116;&#104;&#101; key &#116;&#111; success &#102;&#111;&#114; &#106;&#117;&#115;&#116; &#97;&#98;&#111;&#117;&#116; anything &#121;&#111;&#117; may &#98;&#101; trying &#116;&#111; accomplish.
