Transcript<\/h3>\n

Scott Ingram: You\u2019re listening to the Daily Sales Tips podcast and I\u2019m your host, Scott Ingram. Today\u2019s tip is an excerpt from my full interview with Michele Trankovich on the Sales Success Stories podcast<\/a>. Michele is the top field sales rep at PatientPop and her story is so worth listening to. Here\u2019s a quick excerpt:<\/p>\n

Michele Trankovich: At first, like I said, I was listening to everything. I was talking to people, I was trying to take bits and pieces of things. And then what I did is I stopped, I stopped listening to other people’s demos. I stopped really asking for a whole lot of advice. Until I felt like, like I said, I was losing my edge. They’ve got to be more competition as more people were able to catch up to me kind of thing, right? And now, I’m back, I’m listening to podcasts, I’m trying to get bits and pieces from sales trainers, sales professionals. I’m back to reading books on the latest and greatest sales tactics and things. And I feel like if you can get one thing from a podcast or you can get one thing from a book, it’s certainly worth it. I’ve tried a lot of different tactics and I feel like it helps to keep me focused. You can’t ever just become, what’s the word I’m looking for? It begins with a P. What I’m trying to say is that I got to a point where I thought, okay, I got it going on. You know, I’m doing better than anybody else. You know, I don’t need to work as hard now, right? You get to that point, and that’s so wrong because you always have to keep your foot on the accelerator. You always have to try to do better. You’ll always have to try to learn. You can’t just sit back and think, okay, it’s just going to come to me. You know? Good enough is good enough. You can’t do that.<\/p>\n

Scott Ingram: For my full interview with Michele, you\u2019ll find that in episode 89<\/a> of the Sales Success Stories podcast<\/a> and as always you\u2019ll find links to everything including ways to connect with Michele at DailySales.Tips\/424<\/a><\/p>\n

Be sure to come back tomorrow for another great sales tip. Thanks for listening!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
