I got a job in B2B sales 2 months ago and I have been struggling to get deals. I’ve worked similar roles and I’ve been successful but I’m starting to lose confidence in myself. I really want to do a good job. Any advice? Thanks everyone.

Why are you starting to lose confidence? Did something happen that made you feel that way? It's hard to give advise especially when we don't know how and where things started to make a turn.

Hang in there. It’s a tough market. You should explore different selling techniques. Check out MEDDIC qualifying and read The Challenger Sale.
