BRX Pro Tip: 2 of the Most Important Skills for New College Graduates
Stone Payton : And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton, Lee Kantor here with you. Lee, what in your opinion are the most important skills for new college graduates?
Lee Kantor: Well, it’s that time of year, people are graduating. I think that if you can master these two skills, you will never be lacking for opportunity. The first skill that I think that you should learn about is the ability to sell. If you can learn how to sell, you will never not be employed somewhere. The ability to convince someone to buy something from you is like literally having the ability to print money. If you can sell, you will never have to worry about money, because you can always make more money by selling something to somebody else. So invest in learning how to sell. Super important. And everybody is a salesperson no matter what your job is.
Lee Kantor: The second skill that will help you in life immeasurably is the ability to create. If you can create things of value for other people, and then you can complement that with the ability to sell it, you will always have a way to generate revenue.
Lee Kantor: So those two skills can be adapted to any industry and any interest you might have. So focus in on learning how to sell and focus in on learning how to create value for other people. And you will be set for life.
