The Volatile Journey

Ever since I quit my Supply chain jobs, I jumped straight into the world of sales and marketing in the real estate industry.

It's a different kind of tough.
I struggled to find if real estate is what I would like to do.

I learned how people in this industry do their sales.
I analyze them every single day for 3 months.

How they speak?
What information they deliver?
How did they close that deal?
Why would a customer buy from them?
What do they know that I don't?

I'm in an endless pit of questions.

I try to imitate what they did.

I failed.

I try out different methods.

I failed.

I try to close a very promising deals.

I failed.

At this point, I've failed numerous time, it's a first for me to feel so bad at something.
I felt so incompetent.

I kept on trying for months.

yet again, I failed.

The Flip Side of The Coin

I found that I might be a terrible salesperson.
I might not be able to make it.

Then, I discovered a different side of me that's… working.

Digital marketing.

I realize if I can't be a good salesman.
Perhaps, I can be a good marketer first.

I run many ads campaign for real estate.

I experimenting with different approaches.

Then, it hits.

I'm drawing in leads like a flies on a plate of cold dishes.

I channel all of the leads to our best closer.
He closed it like a pro as always.

I gained the confident I needed to go further.

I started letting people know in my network that I can help them to generate leads with no upfront service costs.
I only take my percentage of payments if a deal is closed.

It works!

I Started Getting The Work In

I works on myself most of the time.

I started to experimenting with different things.
Connecting with different people.
Engaging with them.

Building network one at a time.

I continuously work on things.
Learn more things.

I built blog.
I built websites.
I built newsletter.
I started editing videos.
I started recording videos.
I started networking actively on Linkedin.

I'm invested in it.

I read even more books now.
I go to the gym on daily basis.

I'm obsessed on building a better version of myself.

I became bolder and takes more action even if I know failure is around the corner.

I Welcome Failure

Who knows such a short journey could change a person.

I now embrace and welcome changes.

I no longer afraid of failure.
I welcome it.

I've learned more in such a short time than I ever did during my time in university
and working in a giant multinational company.

Failure is never a stopping point.
It's just a necessary steps to reach higher.
