On this episode of the Financial Affluence Podcast, we explore the psychology and craft of selling, diving into key lessons from Selling Things by Orison Swett Marden. Discover practical strategies such as why trained method beats raw talent, how confidence becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy with prospects, the real power of tact in defusing difficult customers, and how to size up a prospect's character before you ever open your sample case. Learn why Marden calls enthusiasm "the best salesman," how to tell a real objection from a mere excuse, and why he insists no amount of training or bluffing can substitute for genuine character.
