Today’s blog comes with a simple but important message—a special message for those who are in sales and struggling.
You’re calling. You’re emailing. You’re trying everything. But the silence on the other end? Deafening.
Worse, you’re starting to believe the problem is you. That you’re the only one who can’t seem to gain traction. That something you’re doing—or not doing—is keeping doors closed.
So let me say this clearly, as someone who talks to salespeople across the country every day:
You are not alone.
No one’s returning calls. Budgets are frozen. Projects are stalled. Everyone—everyone—is feeling it.
If this were a weather report, the forecast would be: sales headwinds ahead.
It’s not just you.
I can’t tell you when it’ll end. But I can tell you what to do until it does:
- Don’t stop. Keep showing up.
- Keep believing. Convince yourself they will buy—you’re just early.
- Sharpen your edge. Refine your message. Study trends. Stay ready.
- Create a process. And hit it consistently.
Because most of your competitors? They’ve already quit.
You? You’re still here.
And when the headwinds ease, you’ll be the one already in motion—already trusted—already top of mind.
