She bragged about her financial achievements, from owning a pink Porsche Cayenne - which starts at £58,420 and stated: 'The top producers in sales are literally psychopaths - and I'm one of them.'

She spoke to her audience while parked in her lavish car to share her secrets to being successful.

"My point is, if you wanna be good at sales, you have to literally be a robot with yourself," she explained.

"You have to know that whether you are having a good day, bad day or whatever you are feeling, it literally doesn't matter.

'If you're sad, it doesn't matter. If you're happy, it doesn't matter. With the people that you are talking to you have to be the same. You have to be so good at controlling your energy."

She continued saying that customers can feel the energy - making it less likely for you to make a deal.

According to the sales pro - the difference between a good sales rep and a bad one is how you deal with emotions.

She added that no one can tell whether she is having a good or bad day.

I keep telling you guys this. It has everything to do with mentality - your energy, your vibe, how you're approaching at how you're controlling yourself, your hard work," she concluded.

Shelby really did start at the bottom, selling pest control products by knocking on people's doors.

When she hit her own sale target of £252,434 she then trained her sale reps and who made £800,000 in revenue.

1"00 days of 8am-10pm hard work knocking on doors selling pest control contracts in the heat. It was not the fanciest job, but I walked away as a million dollar revenue producing manager, the top female sales rep in the company, and a six figure take-home earner," she added.

Despite Shelby's impressive claims about her sales expertise, her video was soon flooded with comments with viewers left bitterly divided.

Many congratulated the content creator while others said it wasn't worth the hustle.

One person wrote: "I literally don't want to be a robot. I'm a human, not AI."

Another commented: "Awesome job! This is my first year in sales, and you are 100 per cent correct! Hoping to get there too! Saving enough to go back to school, so I can pursue my passions."

"Insurance sales here, and you're so right. Choke the emotions down, and keep going," penned a third.
