    You're Not Bad at Sales — You're Selling Wrong! With Aleasha Bahr

    This week’s episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Aleasha Bahr. A personality test told him he could never be in sales. He's been in sales his entire career and he's very good at it. That's Aleasha Bahr's husband, and she brought the story onto the show this week because it says everything about how backwards we've got this. He's an engineer. He sells to engineers. They like the patience and the detail and the fact that he isn't pushing them. The exact traits the test called a disqualification are the reason he wins the deal. Most sales training was built for one type of person, the fast talking one with their eye on the close. So everybody else runs that playbook, feels awful doing it, and decides they're just bad at sales. Aleasha's whole thing is that there are five sales personalities and every one of them has a real strength. The relationship builder who never pushes. The inquisitive educator who listens better than anyone. The analytical one who follows a process beautifully. The persuader who doesn't get distracted. The chatty charmer who never met a stranger. And there's one habit all five get wrong, which is talking for ten minutes straight and then asking if that made sense. She says stop after each piece and ask if it would make a difference for them. You find out what's actually landing while you can still do something about it. I was the over explainer. I'd tell people every touch point inside our Leadership Program because I was proud of it, and they'd walk away confused and exhausted from talking to me. They bought a red car with a cup holder. They didn't ask what was under the hood.   Win The Hour, Win The Day! www.winthehourwintheday.com Podcast: Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/win-the-hour-win-the-day/id1484859150 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/winthehourwintheday/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/win-the-hour-win-the-day-podcast You can find Aleasha Bahr at: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aleashabahr/ Win The Hour Win The Dayhttps://winthehourwintheday.com

    Hire Help Now—No Need to “Make It” First! With Toby Myles

    This week’s episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Toby Myles. For years I blamed the assistant. Never to her face. I'm too nice for that (which, honestly, was half the problem). But in my head I'd decided she just didn't get it. The work came back not-quite-right and I'd think, well, I told her how I wanted this. Did I though? Here's what I actually said one time: "I wouldn't do it that way." That was it. My whole big direction. So she went and did it the way I said I wouldn't, and I sat there sure she'd dropped the ball. She hadn't. I never told her which way to go, or why it mattered. I handed her my opinion and called it leadership. I had Toby Myles back on the show this week, and she owned the exact same thing out loud. For years she figured her assistants were the problem. Wrong skills, oversold themselves, didn't get it. Then she landed in a setup that actually worked and the penny dropped. Oh. It was me. Now, when something comes back to me and my first thought is "they didn't understand," I already know how that sentence ends. I go hunt for the fuzzy thing I said. It's there about 99% of the time. I left a gap, and the person just walked into it. Nobody warns you about this part when you finally bring someone on. The instruction that lives crystal-clear in your head is almost never the one that came out of your mouth. So now I get clear before I hand anything over. Boring, specific, this-is-exactly-what-I-mean clear. Toby went from burning through assistants to building a full podcast in a month with one person she now calls her second brain. Same Toby. The setup was the only thing that changed. When something your team did comes back wrong, whose sentence do you go re-read first, theirs or yours?

    Ditch the Chase — Be the Media Boss! With Jamie Maglietta

    This week’s episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Jamie Maglietta. I'm at my best in a private conversation. One-on-one, in the comments, on a call, I'm all in. Then it's time to be visible in public, and I shrink. For years I told myself the fix was to pitch harder. Get on a bigger show. Wait for someone with a larger audience to notice me and pull me up. Then Jamie Maglietta got on the podcast. She produced Vice President Kamala Harris at BET and spent 20 years inside MSNBC, Fox and CNN. She said one thing that rearranged how I think about being seen. You don't chase media. You produce it. That sounds like a slogan until she breaks it down. A national hit on CNN feels enormous and often brings in zero clients. She had a legal commentator on her show who'd been on every network, and it never turned into a single paying customer. Meanwhile her people go on one tiny local segment and pick up more followers in a day than any national spot ever gave them. Turns out the chase brings in almost nothing. What pays is being findable, clear, and someone people want to stay connected to. And here's the move I can't stop thinking about. Instead of sending some writer a "loved your article" note and hoping, find an expert you genuinely disagree with, say so publicly, and tag them. Now you're producing a conversation people actually want to watch, and you're in it as an equal. One more line of hers stung a little. You can be smart and really boring. Being the expert isn't enough. People have to want to turn you on. So where do you go quiet when it's time to be seen?

    AI Was Supposed to Save You Time — So Why Are You Busier?

    This week’s episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast    I once paid for months of coaching on software I never learned. This was back in what I call the dark years of my business. Some project management platform was going to change everything. Once I finally mastered it, the work would take care of itself. I gave it three months and a pile of money. I never even learned the thing. What I remember is how beat up I felt at the end. All that time, all that money, and I was further behind than the day I started. I thought about that this week because a client told me he'd just lost a whole day building AI prompts. Smart guy. Public speaker. Gets things done. He looked up and went, "What happened? I was supposed to do all this other stuff today." Here's the part nobody says out loud. AI was supposed to buy you time. Almost everyone I talk to is busier than they have ever been. Email was going to save us too, remember? You send one out and three come back. The tool was never the problem. It was never the whole answer either. AI just speeds up whatever you already have. And if what you already have is chaos, now you've got fast chaos. So the real question isn't "what can this new tool do." It's "what never lands back on my desk again." That takes a person who owns the work, using the tool to move quicker. Not you, at 10:30 at night, quietly turning into the one who babysits every shiny new thing. Your business is here to support your life. You didn't sign up to run a help desk for the robots. Are you running the tools? Or have you quietly become the person who manages all of them? 👀   Win The Hour, Win The Day! www.winthehourwintheday.com   Podcast: Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/winthehourwintheday/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/win-the-hour-win-the-day-podcast

    LinkedIn’s Dying—Act Now or Lose Out! With Karen Yankovich

    This week’s episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Karen Yankovich. I couldn't leave the store empty-handed. I was in Greece this spring... and wandered into this tiny shop. The woman running it was so warm... so genuinely lovely... that I found myself walking the aisles going,  "I have got to find something I want in here.  I am not leaving with nothing.  We'll make something up if we have to." I didn't need a single thing. I just didn't want to walk away from her. I told that story to Karen Yankovich this week... (she's been teaching LinkedIn and PR for years)... and she nodded like, yes, that's the whole game. Because that feeling... the one where someone is so good to you...  that you go hunting for a reason to stay connected... is exactly what your LinkedIn is supposed to do. And almost nobody uses it that way. Most people log in and pitch.  They fire the templated "Hi, how's business?"... at total strangers and call it networking. (Half the ones I get don't even have my name right.) Karen's whole point:  the people who might buy from you... are the category to stop chasing. The gold is in the other two. The referral partners, the ones with an audience... who will put you in front of it.  And the press, the people you get to know long... before you ever need them, so you are the one they call. She built a real relationship from a single business card... and a few LinkedIn messages. It ended with her in front of 2,000 people.  The publisher had never once heard of her. I've done this for years and I still forget it. You cannot copy-paste your way into that. You have to be the store nobody wants to leave. Who's the one person you'd go out of your way to work with.... even though they've never once pitched you? 👀   Win The Hour, Win The Day! www.winthehourwintheday.com   Podcast: Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/winthehourwintheday/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/win-the-hour-win-the-day-podcast   You can find Karen Yankovich at: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenyankovich/
