Confidence + Visibility = Influence
Tom Hopkins is a sales legend, and he's authored the best sales trainings on the market.
If you've read Tom's books, you've met "the champion."
The champion is a pro.
They're friendly, helpful, and ethical.
Imagine a salesperson who exudes confidence in their interactions.
Champions are more likely to influence purchasing decisions.
Research shows that your confidence level predicts your sales record.
Here's how you get it right and add a 0 to your net worth.
Why It Matters
In our high-stakes world of real estate syndication, confidence isn't an extra – it's a must have.
Closing Deals: Confident syndicators are more likely to influence investors and close deals.
Team Leadership: Your confidence sets the tone for your entire team.
Business Growth: Consistent high performance (fueled by confidence) is key to scaling your syndication business.
Personal Development: Mastering confidence builds resilience and opens doors to bigger opportunities.
The Confidence Conundrum
Feeling a dip in confidence is normal.
Many react by either overcompensating with bravado or withdrawing due to self-doubt.
Both of these reactions hurt sales performance.
"Fake it 'til you make it" doesn't work.
And you're not born with confidence, either.
The truth?
Confidence is a skill you can develop - backed by some slick psychology.
The Science of Confidence
A 2014 study found that confidence plays a big role in influencing others.
Double that for financial decisions.
Translation?
When you're confident, investors trust you with their hard-earned cash.
However, it's important to strike a balance. Kidwell, 2021, found that being aware of emotions is crucial.
Too much confidence might cause you to overlook important details. And a lack of confidence leads to indecision.
The key is striking that balance.
And here's great news for syndicators.
A research team discovered that salespeople who believe in their brand perform better.
So stay in love with your real estate business.
You're already on the right track!
Confidence in Action
Try these research-backed strategies to build confidence today:
Brand Belief: Spend 5 minutes listing why your syndication business rocks. Repeat weekly. Find new ways to stay in love with your business.
Emotional Tune-Up: Before your next investor meeting, rate your confidence on a scale of 1-10. Aim for a healthy 7-8. In the sweet spot. If you're a little low, try power posing.
Here's how ↓
Confident Recall: List 3 past successes. Absorb the confidence of overcoming past obstacles.
Get More Eyes: We're our own worst critics. A good group or coach will spotlight ways you're beating yourself and neglecting to recognize your achievements.
The Bottom Line
Confidence isn't about being the loudest in the room or having all the answers.
It's about:
trusting yourself
believing in your business
and being emotionally calibrated
As your deals gets bigger, remember → You got this.
Send-off
Your confidence is an asset in the syndication world. Use it wisely and thrive.
Until next time, stay confident and keep closing those deals!
Together, we're infinite.
All the best,
Chris
