Isaiah 41:10

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Christian Based Selling 

We lead a stressful life in professional sales.  It is more challenging then ever to get meetings with senior leaders and we face stiff competition for their business.  We are also subject to incredibly high expectations from our own management to consistently drive substantial revenue.  It is all part of the job.  

The worst enemy we face is not the competition but our beliefs.  We cannot afford to allow fear of failure to influence our behavior, communications or decisions.  We need to do our job boldly in terms of prospecting, qualifying, proposing and negotiating to close business.  

As Christians we can pray to God to  renew our strength and courage on a daily basis.   Just as athletes recognize the importance of the mental game, we need to be aware that our mental state--positive or negative--will manifest in our words, behaviors and decisions.   More on how our thoughts influence outcomes tomorrow.    

Are you asking God for strength?  Courage?  Hope?
