Getting 1 million dollars is a hell of a hard task to accomplish, but it has been done before and I think is more possible to do it than ever! Before you leave this post because you think “you aren’t a millionaire you don’t know what you are talking about!” hear me out. I haven’t achieved that level of wealth, but I am working to become a future millionaire.
A person who makes per month 10 times, maybe even 100 times more money than a regular person does in a YEAR knows some things very well. And not some valuable stuff, he or she knows what’s precious and uses it to their advantage! Here are 4 of those precious things which every successful person knows!
1. Sales
This is obvious, I know I know.
But it isn’t as easy as you may think it is. Or you just think is pretty hard, then you’ll be right.
Being good at sales means more than being able to sell a pen to somebody. It means using words to make someone buy your product, which is called copywriting. It means using videos too, which means you sell your products through ads.
You could also do sales the old and most well-known way, which means you being the man that calls people and recommend them a product.
Sales include knowing a lot of helpful things for a business.
This is why they are so important.
You can’t make money If you don’t sell your products right?
2. Communication skills
One of the most scary things in business it to talk with your first customer or partner.
You need to be able to tell what your business is all about, to explain how everything works and state sound and clear what you want to say.
If you are an introvert you have to get over your fear of talking to other people.
Even If you think you could start a business like POD, after a while you’ll need an accountant or you may want another supplier, and If you can’t talk to them, you’re done.
You may find this easy because you are a natural extrovert, but you still need how to create the perfect image of yourself in the eyes of others.
This is a really important skill for anyone, not only future millionaires.
Sometimes, If you need something you just need to ask!
This ties perfectly to the next skill I want to talk about!
3. Networking with other people
Man, this, this is really helpful.
I can bet you heard “knowing the right people can get you anywhere” before.
Well, this is true.
There is the rule of 6, or something with 6, I don’t know the name exactly.
The rule states that “you can get to almost anybody with the help of six persons”.
If you have 20 friends and those 20 friends have another 20 friends and so on, you can get in touch with a lot of people.
Don’t believe me, do the math!
Now, having contacts in various fields of work can help you a lot.
Imagine you need a video editor for your I don’t know, new short movie?
Wouldn’t it be very helpful to be able to make some phone calls and get a top one?
This is the power of networking.
Another example is the story of the man who lost all his money after becoming a millionaire.
I told the story once before in this post, you can find it here.
Shortly, he lost all due to some problems but was able to get back in business because of one friend he made while growing his business.
If this doesn’t show how important this is, I don’t know what does!
4. Leadership
Successful people have the aptitude to leaders.
You can only get to a certain point alone, you are more strong when you have people by your side.
I can’t name a single man that became a millionaire and the grew his wealth without the help of a single person.
This is just impossible.
To build great things you need more than one great mind.
This makes things easier and more enjoyable too.
You’ll be happier sitting in the top 1% with your close ones than sitting alone. Having people to share your life with is a great gift. But you need to be able to lead them to that point.
You need all of the things I already told, you and a lot of discipline and perseverance. So, interested to be a millionaire?
