The Red Bull story is incredible when you think about it. 40 year old marketing manager heads to Thailand for a work trip. Drinks a weird drink that energizes him like nothing else. Gets rid of jet lag. Decides to carbonate it and bring it to the West. 1,000mg taurine. Caffeine. Inositol. Cane sugar. There was nothing like it. Proceeds to claim it gives you wings. Designs a skinny can that stood alone among fat cans. Buys football team. Pays mercenaries to do outrageous life threatening stunts as 'marketing'. Buys F1 team. Refuses to sell anything else. Never sold a single share. No IPO. Dude even hated borrowing from the banks. Mateschitz works till he dies. Son continues the legacy. Insane.
Be radical, have principles, be absolute, be what society calls an extremist: give yourself without counting or calculating, don't accept what they call 'the reality of life' and act in such a way that you won't be accepted by that kind of 'life'. Win.

@DivanArnoldi If you:
- Understand the psychology of the prospects you are targeting.
- Have a good sense of wit and humour but can still hold authority.
- Have a genuinely great product/course to get them excited for…
Then setting is easy.
…But if you do not have those 3 it’s hard…
Nothing moves the needle faster than genuine charisma and life-loving energy.
No one cares how “locked in” you are, you just look socially weird and people will AVOID.
@Kevin2Chambers@devantae_masaun Sales is an ecosystem of skills.
Framework, Charisma, Emotional Intelligence, Body Language, Psychological understanding ect.
They can all be taught individually but the understanding will be deeper from experience, persistence and mentorship that’s why most get stuck or quit.
