This video is about building resilience as a crucial skill for outbound sales professionals who face constant rejection and failure as part of their daily work.

I share seven practical strategies I've learned throughout my career to help salespeople bounce back from setbacks, including taking feedback constructively, managing expectations, not taking rejection personally, focusing on controllable factors, using scripts effectively, establishing pre-game rituals, and creating an alter ego to handle difficult situations.
