Sales Lessons that I wish someone had told me at the Start
1. It's not about you
2. It's them vs them and you are the referee
3. If you let them talk they will sell themselves
4. If you talk you bore them
5. Make it about them, you will win more than you lose 6. Make it about you, you will lose more than you win
7. Ask expansive questions "tell me about that?"
8. The discovery part of the call is for them to discover about themselves, not for you
9. You don't have to be an extrovert to make it in sales 10. Introverts often make the best sales guys (listeners) 11. You can't outsell a bad offer
12. It's better to be a bad sales guy on an amazing offer 13. You don't have to be sleezy, honest guys make more money in long run
14. If a prospect asks questions mid-call, tell them you will get to it later for them and bring the focus back, questions allow them to take control of the call and ruin the flow
15. When you price drop you are not "begging for money" it's them vs them, they have told you they want this for 20–60 minutes, the pressure is on them
16. Objections are not real, they are a smoke screen for a different problem (they don't really want a proposal) 17. In objections your only job is to get the truth
18. Whoever is justifying themselves is losing the negotiation
19. Call out potential red flags early as they will come up again after price drop e.g. things that will disqualify them of make them say no
20. You don't have to be a suck up, nobody likes or respects a suck up
21. Find their reason why or their "F it" moment (something that makes now the right time)
22. Get the cost of inaction to make your price look cheap
23. After dropping the price - Shut Up
24. Be prepared to walk away
25. The client is often wrong (yes not always right) just because they want something doesn't mean you have to say yes to it
26. You get more respect by telling the prospect the harsh truth than you do sucking up to them or lying
27. They should talk 80% of the call, you 20%
28. Use negativity to get positivity - e.g. Considering you have no time do you really fell this is a good time to start X thing? They will say "yes because..."
29. If you are pushy they will pull back
30. If you pull away they will pull into your frame
31. Health, Wealth and Relationships are usually the best niches
32. The most simple offer is the easiest close (no moving parts) More moving parts = confusion/more time needed to make a decision
33. When you are up don't think you are the best, when you are down don't think you are the worst
34. Boring basics and fundamentals over slick tricks
35. Only care about the best outcome for the prospect 36. Never take it personally
37. Sell outcomes, not features and processes (boring) 38. Sell the final destination not the journey there
39. Never engage in small talk (ruins call makes you look fake)
40. Keep the call sales focused, always bring the conversation back to getting a qualification or disqualification
It poses a riddle about the site's identity and the remains beneath the main altar, which are those of Saint Mariana de Jesús de Paredes, Ecuador's first canonized saint (1950) and Quito's patroness, symbolizing colonial religious fusion.
The post showcases the gilded Baroque interior of Quito's Iglesia de La Compañía de Jesús, a Jesuit church built from 1605 to 1765, featuring over 7 tons of 23-carat gold leaf on carved cedar woodwork and a painted blue ceiling with angelic motifs.
I can’t overstate how incredible my time was in Ecuador. Absolutely fabulous country. 🇪🇨
They have everything:
- The Amazon
- Galápagos Islands
- Cotopaxi National Park
- Several more absurd snowcapped volcanoes
- Quito & Cuenca
Lowest cost of living I’ve seen in Latin America. Tied with Nica imo. And they use USD.
Abundant food, insanely high quality spring waters, natural beauty everywhere. Quality roads and infrastructure I thought.
Cuenca is an S-tier small city / pueblo mágico. Quito is actually the chillest Latin American capital ever, with some very nice areas to base up like Gonzales Suarez or Cumbayá.
There’s an ambient peaceful energy throughout the entire high sierra region. There really is something to living at elevation.
If you’re worried about safety just avoid the coast. Not really necessary to visit any of the spots on the coast except Montañita 😉
I covered a ton of ground, hit the coast several times including Guayaquil, camped out in the country and near the Amazon.
Never felt unsafe once in the entire country. Yes you need to be smart but overall the safety concerns are so overblown.
I could go on and on. This is a place I hold very close to my heart and will absolutely be back. It should be high on on everyone’s list. 🇪🇨❤️
