Salespeople hold 5 universal beliefs which we call 'Destination Beliefs'. Whilst they are necessary components of a salesperson’s belief system, how these beliefs are interpreted and synthesized internally is what separates the best from the rest. A spectrum of attitudes exist for each destination belief. We call them 'Journey Motivations' because they define the path taken towards each destination. There are ten motivations in total, a pair for each Destination Belief and it is the precise balance of these motivations which defines sales performance. Why? Because it is not ‘what’ you do but ‘why’ you do it. Top sellers demonstrate the exact same motivation balance as each other, which means as you believe, you will behave.
