The Power Of Selling: Why A Young Boy Without A Degree Can Outshine A Master's Holder

in Hive Naija6 days ago

I heard the story of a young boy in Nigeria, a popular TikToker who is barely out of his teens with no degree to his name, confidently saying he needs a master degree holder to take on a job for him with a pay of 500,000 Monthly salary.

If you hear this, this might be shocking to you. When I heard the news, it made me pause, maybe even raise my eyebrows. But instead of being stunned, let's just take a moment and learn from why this popular young teen decided to make this bold move.

In a world where most people are so obsessed with certificates, degrees and titles, it's easy to forget one simple thing, that the world is a big marketplace. At any given moment. Every single one of us is either buying something or we are selling something.

Whether you are selling your skills, your ideas or your products, your ability to sell is what determines your success far from more than letters behind your name. So looking at the young boy, he has learned how to crack the code at his early age.

He has learned how to sell in his space. And that is why he is making a name for himself.
And that is why he is making the bold move. So think about it, what are so many strangers, people who never saw the inside of a university wall or who never know how the four walls of the classroom look like, more ready than the professors with PhDs.

I would say this is not luck, this is not magic, it's because they have mastered the most vital skill that many schools don't teach, and that is how to sell. They now know how to spot. They now know how to spot opportunities and close these without having a certificate.

Meanwhile, many highly educated people are just stuck in the circle of just buying. They buy knowledge, they buy certifications, they buy time, and they buy seminars. They still don't know how to sell. Here is the truth, if your buying is more than your selling, you are on the very fast track of getting poor.

It doesn't matter how many degrees you have or how many books you have read in your entire. It doesn't matter how many books, your ideas, your passion, your vision, your talent. You might be left with nothing but expenses and dreams that never take flight.

This can sound very harsh but it is what you buy when you don't know how to sell, but here is the good news, selling is a skill anyone can learn you don't need you don't need to have a fancy or repeatable degree or a big office to start, it's about understanding what people really need, showing them how you can solve their problems and confidently present your value to them.

What I see in this young boy that others didn't do is that he didn't wait for permission, he went out learned the game and played it so well and you too can. It doesn't matter whether you have a PHD or you are someone just starting out.

Take this lesson to heart, you must learn how to sell, study how the world operates study your markets around you and don't be afraid to put yourself out there world rewards those who can say not just those who can study.

Stop buying to the idea that, knowledge alone is enough start selling your world and watch how the world open ups to you because in this big marketplace called life the real winners are the ones who knows how to close the deal and make things happen.
