Treat every sale as if it your first one.

See if you don't stay motivated then.

      I agree with you that you should treat every sale as the first one because the first sale is done with a lot of aggression.

    This is actually some pretty good advice, even though it's simple. You'll never feel as excited and motivated as after your first sale. If you're used to making a couple of sales every now and then, that means that you propably don't get very motivated from one sale anymore.

    Also, always see yourself as someone who can help ease your customer's "pain" whatever it may be. But, never as "how can I make money of this customer" because even as an internet business the client will see it.

    To your success,
    Mike

      What about Selling with the intention of helping others, in other words "giving value" to others?

      Easier said than done, especially when we need emergency cash

    Max, there are two words that I am doing my utmost to use as much as possible but especially when someone speaks some simple truths and/or words of wisdom - THANK YOU!

    I agree to you 100%... Actually we miss the excitement and motivation that we used to feel at our first sale... Once we learn to keep up a good pace with it, I am sure we motivate ourselves on autopilot.

    Yeah thats true, i guess that ties into persistence which is key to success in this business. If your keep yourself hungry then you will probably be more persistent.

      I thought you were going to say "master 1 form of traffic generation". That would apply to both offline and online businesses. Treat every sale as if it is your first one is good too
