    Why A Peer Relationship Pre-Sale, Undermines Your Authority

    After decades of refining Trust-Based Selling, it’s become clear that one of the biggest misconceptions is that rapport equals trust — but it doesn’t. Positioning as a peer takes away the ability to lead the conversation and uncover the real issues. True trust is built by stepping into the role of a trusted authority, not a friend. In this month’s Stump The Guru show, I’ll be addressing why trying to build a peer relationship with prospects before the selling process can actually harm your authority. I've made it my life’s mission to create the clarity that is missing in the traditional sales process, through decades of working with thousands of business owners all over the world, refining Trust-Based Selling into a true art form: · Stop "chasing" ghosts (leads that never call you back!) · Make the sale in ONE conversation, without pressure · Stop selling, create deep trust instead I’ve taken my mission one step further and created a livestream show called “Stump The Guru’” -- where you get the opportunity to jump on live and ask me your toughest sales questions that you’d love an answer for.

    Are Your Prospects “Finding” You?

    In sales, it’s not just about hunting for prospects—it’s about making sure they can find you when the time is right. If your prospects can’t find you, they can’t engage with you. But it’s not just about being visible; it’s about being discoverable in a way that feels natural and effortless. In this month’s podcast, I explored how you can set yourself up to be found by the right people at the right time, without chasing after them. I've made it my life’s mission to create the clarity that is missing in the traditional sales process, through decades of working with thousands of business owners all over the world, refining Trust-Based Selling into a true art form: · Stop "chasing" ghosts (leads that never call you back!) · Make the sale in ONE conversation, without pressure · Stop selling, create deep trust instead I’ve taken my mission one step further and created a livestream show called “Stump The Guru’” -- where you get the opportunity to jump on live and ask me your toughest sales questions that you’d love an answer for.

    Why Persuasion Creates Sales Pressure

    We’ve all been told that persuasion is the key to closing deals. But the reality is, persuasion often leads to pressure—both for you and your prospect. When you’re focused on persuading, it can feel like you’re pushing against resistance. In this month’s podcast, I talked about how dropping persuasion can help create a more relaxed, natural conversation that leads to better outcomes.

    Are You Triggering Sales Alarms?

    Sales people often unknowingly trigger alarms in their prospects.  These alarms are the defense mechanisms that kick in when someone feels pressured or manipulated.  Have you ever wondered if you’re triggering these alarms without meaning to?  In this month’s Stump The Guru show explore how small changes in your approach can make prospects feel more comfortable and open to a genuine conversation, rather than putting them on guard.

    Are You Focused on Trust-Building Or Show Value?

    It’s easy to get caught up in showing your prospect how valuable your solution is.  But the truth is, trust has to come first. Without trust, your value doesn’t matter as much.  Building trust is the foundation for every successful sale.  In this month’s Stump The Guru show I will be diving into why trust-building should be your first priority, and how focusing on it can naturally lead to demonstrating value. I've made it my life’s mission to create the clarity that is missing in the traditional sales process, through decades of working with thousands of business owners all over the world, refining Trust-Based Selling into a true art form: · Stop "chasing" ghosts (leads that never call you back!) · Make the sale in ONE conversation, without pressure · Stop selling, create deep trust instead I’ve taken my mission one step further and created a livestream show called “Stump The Guru’” -- where you get the opportunity to jump on live and ask me your toughest sales questions that you’d love an answer for.

    Is Rejection Still A Part Of Your Sales Process?

    Rejection is a tough pill to swallow, but here’s the thing: It’s not the end of the road.  Instead of viewing rejection as a personal failure, what if you saw it as part of the natural process of building trust? Rejection can be a sign that you’re doing the right things, engaging in real conversations, and letting prospects make informed decisions. In this month’s Stump The Guru show I will be exploring how reframing rejection can help you stay focused on the long-term relationship.
