This is the story of how I overcame the fear of rejection as a face to face lead generator — and an introvert. Fear of rejection is a common issue that salespeople face. After all, the entire sales process is based on putting yourself out there and making the ask.

The start of any undertaking is the most important step. When it comes to building the confident and trusting relationship associated with a strong seller / buyer relationship, the start is especially important. I'm not just talking about the immediate "bonding and rapport" part of selling or a 5-minute segment of chitchat.

A dramatic shift has occurred in the B2B landscape. Buying has transformed radically in the last half-decade, causing growth rates to plummet, customer acquisition costs to skyrocket, and churn rates to surge. For SaaS companies relying on traditional sales strategies to grow revenue, these trends will only become worse, as they now falter in the face of modern purchasing paradigms.

How do you attract people to a field (sales) that they think has a notoriously suspect reputation? How do you turn perceptions of sales as a “pushy,” “manipulative,” and “untrustworthy” endeavor into a respectable opportunity that could launch participants into a world of respectable and lucrative work? That was the challenge John Kratz faced in 2019 when he went after Gen Z students to enroll in the first public university sales major that he created in the state of Minnesota.

This lack of alignment tremendously impacts the ability to meet business goals, and is a limiting factor for building and maintaining customer relationships.
