@GiftedMajid Hi Majid - do you offer lessons or teach workshops? What is the best way to get in touch with you?

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@Ahuja6168 Yup 100%

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

My brain is weird.

I spent days avoiding calling my prospects from the DMs.

But in reality, it wasn't so bad.

The first call? I was nervous.

The second call? Better.

The rest of the calls? Nerves gone.

@MorganBusiness Got to say your videos helped.

Was watching one of the recent ones where you talked about closing your first few clients and how the first was the hardest.

Just closed 2 people today and got setup calls booked this week to get started with them.

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@thisisgiacomo Yup just got to get started

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@itsYoussefK Just got to get the ball rolling

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@StrategicMaaz Exactly!

@alphacopyinc What makes them a headache to work with?

I’ve only worked with a few so far. Yes some were tough. But others were a pleasure to work with

Two-step sales hack.

1. Find out where your prospects are today and where they want to be tomorrow.
2. Position your product as the bridge to get them there.

Benjamin Franklin was the original Dale Carnegie.

He taught how to win friends and influence people over 234 years ago.

His rules:
1. Learn to admire others. Ask genuine questions.
2. Learn how to disagree. Don't try to "win".
3. Always strive to improve yourself.

@OjdanicNikola That’s right

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

I've read 7 books about writing in the last 6 months.

One theme stood out:

The way you think = the way you write.

If you want to be a better writer, become a better thinker.

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@itsYoussefK Good thing you caught it :)

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

@itsYoussefK Haha that’s right

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

People love to have opinions.

Even on topics they don't understand.

Don't spend time trying to change their minds.

Find out what they believe and build bridges to get them to the other side.

(No. This post isn't about the holidays.)

Scripts and templates are good.

But if you don't understand why they work then you'll forever be chasing the next great template.

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

Checklists are overrated.

You can have an ad that checks all the boxes...

But if the big idea is off then no one will buy.

[Alex Matthews @AlexMkWrites]

I never got cold outreach to work.

My cold messages would get nasty replies and only a few meetings.

But that's when I realized my mistake.

...You can't improve what you don't track.

Now all my results get tracked daily. Will report back on the results.

Sales hack: call the lead the moment they submit their info.

@StrategicMaaz It's a virtuous cycle if you can do it well

@rramesh25 You know it!
