    What I've Learned From My Struggle w/ Not Finishing Strong

    Not finishing strong should not be an option. However, I have failed to do this many times in my life. I was leading a cross country race in middle school and got lazy at the finish line and got passed (shout out charlie). I earned the starting spot on 2 different basketball and soccer teams and then lost it because I got comfortable. I've done this in relationships & even in my career in certain areas. This episode will share some personal stories about not finishing strong as well as how I'm learning to overcome this.

    12 Insanely Helpful Sales Tips

    I’ve spent the 1st 4 years of my career in a sales. As I transition to customer success, I want to share my top x sales tips: 1. Be interested over interesting 2. If your prospect has ever been on a podcast and you don’t google to check before the call, you are being lazy. 3. If they have written a book and you do not buy it… that’s weak. 4. After clarifying next steps on a call, end it relationally. 5. RELEVANT follow up. 6. Ask one more question. 7. You can’t work smarter if you’re not smart yet. 8. Don’t let the highs be too high or the lows be too low. 9. Be a goldfish. 10. Ruthlessly disqualify people. You know deep down if there is actually a chance of they will buy. 11. Don’t burn bridges… people come back around. 12. hand written note 12. If you’re 22 and you don’t know what you want to do when you grow up… try to start with something that has a high chance of reaching you transferable skills. Want to know the path that will 100% give you transferable skills?? Sales. Why? Even if you’re not “in sales,” you’re in sales. Everything is sales🤝
