Brian believes selling isn't harder today—it's different. Confident salespeople don't just sell more. They communicate better, serve better, lead better, and earn more because of it.
I didn't get into sales because I loved selling.
I got into sales because I needed to earn more money.
At 23 years old, my wife and I learned we were expecting our first child. My second thought was immediate:
"I don't make enough money for a baby."
Soon afterward, I accepted a straight-commission sales position selling home improvement services. If I made a sale, I got paid. If I didn't, I earned nothing.
For nearly ten months, I struggled. There was no real training—just "Hang in there. You'll get it eventually."
Everything changed when I picked up my first sales book, How to Master the Art of Selling by Tom Hopkins. It gave me something I desperately needed: hope. That book, followed by the works of Zig Ziglar, Og Mandino, and many others, launched a lifelong study of the sales profession that continues today.
More than 35 years later, I've built The Sales Confidence Company, written 10 books, and dedicated my career to changing the way the world thinks about Selling.
