Start Selling

Start Selling.........

This post is long but worth reading👌

One of the greatest fears of people is selling. Therefore, he who masters the art of selling can make a lot of money out of it. Selling is the only business you can start, without capital. You don't need capital, you don't need inventory, you may not even need to incur any costs to sale. All you need is a skill. There are a lot of people who have products for sale, and they can do with an extra hand. You don't even need to engage in a commission based sales arrangements. You can run your own show... and be a boss, no money down... You can start your own sales agency, and sale other people's items...

Recently a long time friend who has been on Kyekyo inboxed me looking for a job,I told her that the available opportunities are in Media Sales , she asked what's the retainer? I told her we don't give but give commission of 18% and 15 % depending on your sales target.

She inboxed me saying she can't take on the offer, however in the same week, I had 3 young fresh graduate going my team in September 2019, as we had for Christmas in December one of the girls is going home with 4.3 million shillings the biggest pay Cheque ever in her life, and second Sales person is walking home with 2.5million and the 3 Sales Person 1.2 million.....

What is the lesson for me, we all been presented opportunities in life but rejected them kumbe thats your ticket out of poverty.

Look at this. Imagine you went round town, looking at things, getting prices, asking about how to qualify for discounts, payment arrangements, etc. Then used your selling skills to start promoting those things... when people make orders, you ask them to pay in advance and you go get the things for them. Over time, you will have money enough to ask for a commitment deposit only and you buy with your own money. As time goes, you even create a relationship with the sellers so much that you can get on credit and pay later. What matters is integrity, truthfulness and trustworthiness.... if you can read this article, then you can learn sales. There is a gazillion of information online... free information. 

There are a lot of things lying around in shops, warehouses and scrap yards waiting for a good salesperson to come and exchange them with money. 

Instead of wasting bundles arguing about Eddy Kenzo VS Rema and Hamza, Fool Figure and Buchaman joining NRM,People Power VS NRM .....

why don't you spend your OTT & Mbs on "How to be a great sale person?" Watch YouTube videos, take free online courses... etc. If you are willing and obedient, in less than six months, you shall eat the fruit of the land. Sales is a a great equalizer, because anyone can do it. Here is my challenge, "take a walk around, do some window shopping and start looking for things you can easily sale..."

Even on your Facebook account, just posting latest phone for sale at a price will earn you 50k commission...

Let's change our mindset in 2020 by taking sales and aside hustle!
