A Note from James:So I've been doing this podcast for a long time—over 1500 episodes—and I've spoken to everyone from billionaires to best-selling authors, athletes to entrepreneurs. But there are a handful of episodes that still ring in my ears years later. One of them was Episode 156 with Gary Vaynerchuk.I was just re-listening to it while pulling together notes for a potential book, and I realized this conversation is timeless. It's not about hype. It's about freedom. Gary's blueprint—learn, build, create community, stay self-aware—is the real deal. No shortcuts. No tricks. Just pure, actionable wisdom. Whether you're 23 or 53, if you're serious about building the life you want, this one's worth a listen.Send it to your kids. Your friends. Your future self.Thanks again for listening.Episode Description:In this re-release of one of the most downloaded episodes of The James Altucher Show, James sits down with Gary Vaynerchuk just before the release of his book #AskGaryVee. What unfolds is a candid, highly tactical conversation about business, content creation, self-awareness, and the true meaning of entrepreneurship.Gary breaks down his framework for success—from selling wine via YouTube in the early 2000s to launching VaynerMedia and investing in Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr. He also explains why patience, practicality, and micro-failure are essential ingredients for long-term freedom.This isn't motivational fluff. It's the strategy, mindset, and playbook of someone who's been in the trenches—and is still hungry.What You'll Learn:Why "entrepreneurship" is really just a path to freedom—not fast cashHow Gary made (and learned from) multiple startup failures in 2009Why content marketing is about sincerity, not SEO hacksHow to test new business ideas through arbitrage—like flipping Jets gear on AmazonA tactical breakdown of self-awareness (and how to get it from people you trust)Timestamped Chapters:[00:00] Leisure vs. Freedom: What You're Really Trading[01:00] Recommending Competitors as a Sales Tactic[03:00] Early YouTube, Wine Library, and ROI Before Social Was “Social”[06:00] Entrepreneurship vs. Lifestyle Marketing[08:00] Ego, Confidence, and What Scares Gary Vee[10:00] The Trainwreck Year: 2009 and Four Failed Startups[12:00] Experiments, Micro-Failures, and Million-Dollar Misses[14:00] Offense vs. Defense in Business[15:00] Building Trust Through Sincerity in Content[18:00] Self-Awareness: Gary's Most Important Entrepreneurial Trait[22:00] The Real Numbers: What It Means to Be in the 1%[25:00] Leisure Costs More Than You Think[29:00] Why Gary Loves Losing and Chasing More Than Winning[34:00] The Self-Awareness Dinner Party Hack[38:00] Redefining Success: From $213K to $87K and Happy[42:00] Clouds and Dirt: Finding Your North Star and Executing in the Weeds[43:00] The Arbitrage Blueprint: eBay to Amazon[47:00] Community Building Through Twitter and Micro-Engagement[49:00] Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook (And What People Get Wrong About It)[52:00] Avoiding Negative Energy in Business and Relationships[54:00] Tactical Social Media Growth: Commenting, Listening, Engaging[56:00] Scaling Beyond Arbitrage: Events, Podcasts, ProductsAdditional Resources:#AskGaryVee: One Entrepreneur's Take on Leadership, Social Media, and Self-Awareness (Amazon)Gary Vaynerchuk's TwitterWine Library TV ArchivesVaynerMediaDailyVee on YouTubeOur Sponsors:Pack up and go even further with the Defender 110.

In the 892nd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Kyna England talk about the counterfeit poker chips that were discovered at a Texas cardroom, a home game robbery in Hawaii, and a huge laydown in a $2.4 million cash game pot from Triton Poker. Speaking of, Xuan Liu became the first woman to claim a Triton title, while Jesse Lonis and Alex Foxen also won Triton tournaments. Speaking of big winners, Kevin Li took down the 2025 WSOP Tournament of Champions, Stephen Song was victorious on The Lord Poker Tour for $750K, and both Corey Wick and Josh Freund claimed big mid-major wins.

날 ▶ 광주 경찰관 흉기 피습, 범인은 실탄 맞고 사망 지난 26일 새벽, 광주광역시에서 경찰관이 50대 남성에게 흉기 습격을 당한 사건이 발생했다. 당시 귀가하던 여성 2명으로부터 수상한 남성이 따라온다는 신고를 받고 출동한 경찰. 남성을 부른 순간, 흉기를 들고 달려든 것인데. 경찰은 흉기 난동을 진압하는 과정에서 실탄 3발을 쐈고, 50대 남성은 병원에서 사망했다. 주민들에 따르면, 평소에도 이 남성은 매일 비슷한 시간에 거리를 활보하며 어딘가 수상해 보였다는데. 남성이 그날 흉기를 경찰에게 휘두른 이유는 무엇일까. 한편, 진압 과정 중 총기로 인해 피의자가 사망하며 정당방위 논란에 휩싸인 경찰. 과연 그날의 경찰 진압은 합법적이었을지, 에서 취재했다. 더 개러지 ▶ 전 세계 500대 한정판! 시대를 뛰어넘은 클래식카 ‘미쯔오카 라세드' 누구나 타보고 싶은 차. 꿈에만 그리던 드림카를 실제로 보게 된다면?! 대망의 첫 번째 주인공은, 전 세계 500대 한정으로만 판매되었던 미쯔오카 자동차의 ‘라세드'! 도로를 주행하는 것만으로도 마치 영화 속 한 장면을 연상케 하는 클래식한 외관에 남녀노소 시선 집중! 가는 곳곳마다 사람들의 관심을 한 몸에 받는 드림카. 그러나, 이런 라세드엔 더욱 특별한 매력이 있다. 철제 범퍼와 나팔 모양의 클락션 등 클래식한 외관과는 정반대로, 내부는 헤드업 디스플레이, 전동식 선루프 등 1990년대의 최신 기술이 포함되어 있는 반전이 있는 차라는 것. 당신이 꿈꾸던 자동차 미쯔오카 라세드의 탄생 배경부터 가격까지 에서 공개한다. 본격 투자! ▶ 해외 ETF 배당 이중과세 논란! 향후 투자 전략은? 최근 몇 년 사이 빠르게 성장 중인 ETF 시장! 이러한 열풍 속에서 별안간 개인 투자자들을 혼란에 빠뜨린 일이 발생했는데! 원래 미국에서 받는 배당금은 현지에서 세금 15%를 내야 하지만, 지금까지는 떼인 세금을 국세청이 돌려줬었다. 하지만 올해부터는 이러한 선 환급 제도가 종료되었고, 그 여파로 인해 투자자 사이에서 이중과세 논란이 일어난 것! 만약 ISA 계좌를 이용했다면 해외주식형 ETF를 매수했을 때 받는 배당금도 원천징수 되고, 연금을 받을 때 연금 소득세도 내야 하는 상황인데, 과연 정부에서는 어떤 대책을 준비 중일까? 이 일로 인해 국내에서 판매하는 해외 ETF가 아닌 미국 상장 ETF에 직접 투자를 결심했다는 사례자가 있어 만나봤는데! 직접 투자의 장점은 무엇이며, 전문가들은 이 시기에 어떤 투자 방향을 제안하고 있을지. 현시점에서 해외 ETF 투자 동향을 에서 담아봤다. 사이드 인터뷰 ▶ 국민 노래 작곡가 박문영 님 “울릉도 동남쪽 뱃길따라 87K 외로운 섬 하나 새들의 고향. 그 누가 아무리 자기네 땅이라고 우겨도 독도는 우리땅” 1982년 어느 날, 공중파에 흘러나온 노래 한 곡이 전국을 발칵 뒤집었다. 일본의 독도 영유권 주장에 맞서 우리의 것을 지키자는 직설적 가사와 중독성 있는 멜로디로 전 국민이 따라 부르기 시작한 것. 이제는 남녀노소 누구나 한 소절만 들어도 “아~ 그 노래?” 하며 추억을 떠올리게 하는 국민 노래가 되었는데, 발매 이후 43년 동안 어린이들의 인기 동요이자 각종 응원가로 사랑받았으며, 심지어 오스카상을 수상한 영화 ‘기생충'에서 패러디로 등장해 다시 한번 큰 화제를 불러일으키기도 했는데, 오랜 시간 많은 사랑을 받아온 노래가 알고 보니 제작하는 데 단 10분도 걸리지 않았다고? 국민 노래 창시자, 박문영 작곡가를 만나 숨겨진 제작 비하인드를 에서 들어봤다.

Labor Market payrolls Nonfarm payrolls increased by 175,000 in the month of April. While this was well below the estimate of 240,000, this may actually be a big positive. Having that type of growth still shows the labor market is on good footing, but to combat the Fed's inflation concerns it's nice to see a labor market that is not too hot. Previous revisions also weren't major considering March was revised up by 12,000 to a gain of 315,000 and February was revised lower by 34,000 to a gain of 236,000. Areas of strength included health care and social assistance (+87K), transportation and warehousing (+20.1K), and retail trade (+20.1K). Some areas actually saw minor losses including mining and logging (-3K), professional and business services (-4K), and information (-8K). With wage inflation being a major concern, I'd say the biggest data point was average hourly earnings growth of 3.9% missed the expectation of 4.0%. This was a decline from March's reading of 4.1% and actually marked the lowest reading since the Fed starting hiking interest rates in 2022. Overall, I was quite pleased with the job numbers as I believe it shows a cooling labor market that remains healthy. Job Openings At the end of March job openings totaled 8.5 million. This missed the estimate of 8.7 million and was lower compared to the previous month's reading of 8.8 million. Compared to last year, job openings were down 1.1 million. While this all sounds like bad news, I believe this is a positive. To start, pre-covid we had never seen a reading of over 8 million job openings, which means there is still plenty of available work for those that are looking. Also, when there were too many available jobs it created more competition for workers, which many times leads to wage pressures and in theory puts pressure on inflation. The labor market has remained resilient, but I believe we need to continue to see some softening to assist with inflationary concerns. This report came after the employment cost index spooked markets as it rose 1.2% in the first three months of the year versus an expectation of 1%. Compared to last year's first quarter, wages and benefits rose 4.2%, which matched Q4's reading and is off the multidecade high of 5.1% in 2022. Wages make up about 70% of employment costs and they increased 4.3% compared to last year, while benefit costs increased 3.7%. One other note to consider is that union workers saw a larger increase than non-union employees in the quarter. As we lap the impact from the union negotiations that concluded late last year, we will likely see a smaller increase from union jobs in the report. Microsoft and OpenAI I'm very curious to see how lawsuits against Microsoft and OpenAI over copyright infringement play out. Late last year the New York Times announced a lawsuit and now eight newspaper publishers in California, Colorado, Illinois, Florida, Minnesota, and New York have claimed Microsoft and OpenAI used millions of their articles without payment or permission. All eight publishers fall under the ownership of hedge fund Alden Global Capital and include names like the Denver Post, Chicago Tribune, and the New York Daily News. “The current GPT-4 LLM will output near-verbatim copies of significant portions of the publishers' works when prompted to do so,” the complaint said. It also showed several examples of ChatGPT and the Copilot allegedly doing so. If these companies are able to win, I worry it could open the floodgates and other content providers could then claim the same infractions. ChatGPT also received more bad news with competitor Anthropic announcing its first enterprise offering and a free iPhone app. Anthropic was founded by ex-OpenAI research executives and has backers that include Amazon, Google, and Salesforce. Its Claude 3 model can reportedly summarize up to about 150,000 words and convert the large data sets into summaries in the form of a memo, letter or story. For comparison, ChatGPT can handle about 3,000 words. Overall, the AI space remains very early on to try and pick winners and I believe many investors will be disappointed a few years down the road as they unfortunately picked the wrong horse to bet on. Starbucks Have you not been drinking as much Starbucks as you used to? The 52 week high for the stock is $109.72, but after reporting earnings the stock fell to $74.44. This was a 32.2% drop from the high. The company is struggling with their competitor in China, Luckin Coffee, and Starbucks saw a 11% decline in same store sales year over year. Starbucks has ambitious plans to roll out new beverages and increase their efficiency to bring back lost customers. Investors should note that there are union negotiations going on for 410 stores in the US, which could increase their labor cost and perhaps slow down their efficiency. In my opinion, even with this pull back it's still not a bargain as it still trades at almost 20 times earnings. We will do an analysis of Starbucks during our radio show and podcast on Saturday, May 11th after the numbers settle down and we can better view the company going forward. Stocks Discussed: Tesla (TSLA), Albemarle (ALB), Manpower (MAN) and Ford (F)

Biden brags about job numbers as inflation remains high. CNN holds a town hall with VA Gov. Youngkin and sets up a bathroom question from a trans teenager.

Joe McBride says D.C. is 96% Biden voters. Add Biden's comments on MAGA Republicans and the jury pool is poisoned—out of 67 trials, the J6 prosecutors have been handed 66 convictions. 99% of the J6 defendants have filed change of venue motions. District Court Judges haven't allowed a single defendant to escape the Marxist Dem D.C. court system. The J6 Committee has hidden video and documents used in their hearings. Speaker McCarthy was given 41K hours of CCTV video. Rep. Claudia Tenney says our weak, feckless President doesn't understand the seriousness of what our enemies are doing. China fired a hypersonic missile around the world and we didn't know about it until China put out a press release. The Biden Administration isn't focused on what matters. The Defense Department should be merit-based, not Woke— period. The real question is will we be overrun by an endless number of bureaucrats that Democrats keep hiring, like the 87K new IRS agents. GUESTS: ATTY JOE MC BRIDE & U.S. REP. CLAUDIA TENNEY

Meta Platforms (META), previously Facebook (FB), is expected to begin massive staff reductions this week. META stock price today is up over 5% so far. "During the pandemic, there was a lot of hiring in the technology sector, but now that is bubbling over. Currently, Meta Platforms has about 87K employees and has recently cut expenses for non-essential travel. Also, Microsoft (MSFT) could blow up $69B deal for Activision Blizzard (ATVI) due to internal turmoil with gaming rights," says Renita Young.

In the last 4 weeks we've seen Biden raid a former President, take the phone of a sitting Congressman, slur 75 million Americans as racists and extremists then tell those same Americans they have to pay the college debt of Democrats. And if you don't like that, Biden will unleash 87K new IRS agents to harass you. Jordan says if they win the midterms, Republicans will investigate the J-6 panel, Fauci's lies and disinformation about the virus, vaccines, mandates and shutdowns. They'll also investigate the FBI & DOJ abuses of power. GUEST: REP. JIM JORDAN, JUDICIARY RANKING MEMBER
The backdrop behind Biden last night suggests a new Nazi regime with Biden at the helm. Check out picture on WMXI's Facebook's site. Joe Biden uses Marines in the background of his Hitler-like speeches in the 1940's. Americans are at the precipice of new autocratic Communist control of your mind and way of life. The legislative branch of government needs to create a new oversight system (like special magistrates) to monitor, investigate, and charge for the bad behavior of government officials and their lackeys. Politicians cannot use the weight and force of their position to incarcerate and punish political opponents and limiting free speech through fear and intimidation. Felony convictions needed for such bad behavior. 74-million Americans are now being characterized by Biden as enemies of our Democratic Republic, and labeled as ” ‘MAGA' Voters are Dangerous”. The Dems fear a massive loss in November. Biden's rhetoric last night distracts us from his terrible performance in the last 2 years. Biden and staff continue to deflect, divert, and distract you away from the real problems. They're ‘eating us from within'. This plays perfectly into China and Russia's intentions to destroy America. Biden is changing the topics of concern. The more they talk about Trump, the more they avoid explaining their failures at the border, crime, gas prices, interest rates, 87K new IRS agents, inflation, COVID, and immigration. Biden's speech last night confirms that the Dems acknowledge that they have lost many people in the middle. Will Mitch McConnell step aside and let stronger Republicans lead?Originally Aired: WMXI Radio on Friday, September 2, 2022 at 7:15am CSTSeason 1, Episode 65Link to WMXI Facebook page and picture Michael and Gene are discussing: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981Learn more at: https://genevalentino.com/in-the-news/Click Here to Share this important message with a fellow patriot: Download the Audio MP3 Now!Special thanks to the following source(s) for the image(s) used in this article:https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-holding-red-and-black-textile-4108468/A Special Message from Gene ValentinoGene & Maureen ValentinoDoing “the right thing” is not always easy.

General Flynn says the Security State is out of control. Obama changed the culture and behavior of the DOJ and the FBI. The Security State has made citizens of our country their enemies rather than criminals or foreign adversaries. And this is not hypothetical says Flynn, the Chinese Communist Party has infiltrated every aspect of America, our schools, business, government. We are facing a complete breakdown of the rule of law and our legal institutions. Biden's 87K additional IRS agents will be part of the Security State complex as we move into an ideological realm more aligned with communism. GUEST: GENERAL MICHAEL FLYNN
A Bi polar week as Whiz debriefs his on-site visit to Nue Life in Miami, updates the No Fallen Hero project, then pivots to more evidence of our failing republic. From Biden claiming “zero inflation” in the past month, to 87K new IRS agents (instead of 87K armed school officers…because going after you is more important than our children), and the raid that's not a raid on the former president's home.

The Biden administration is up to some funny math. Why does the IRS need 87K armed agents? The raid on Donald Trumps residence is looking like a partisan hack job. Nancy Pelosi is lying about taking Jr along to Asia. Saint Fauci is back and as arrogant as ever!
1) Presidential Records Act of 1978 2) 15 Boxes Seized following orders from Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI director Christopher Wray. Republicans demand they testify before the Judiciary committee 2A) Trump's safe broker into 3) Weaponization of FBI and Justice Department and a blatant abuse of power in Mar A Lago raid. Secret Service was notified. Biden apparently not notified? Pelosi heard chatter? 4) Dershowitz - "Should have issued a subpoena" 5) This illustrates the extent Democrats will abuse their power to stay in power.

In episode 13 of the PRP, Adam gets international and connects with seasoned runner and veteran trail trotter Mez Kennedy who has been preparing for the Ultra Trail Cape Town 100K [UTCT] on November 27th, 2021. Mez shares the tale of his innate relationship with running that he has spent years cultivating one small incremental step at a time. From running because his body (and belly) began to change in his early 30's to running ultra marathons, he hasn't put any pressure on himself to go big or go home. He simply gets out the door as often as he can and has let his love for the sport grow organically. Although he is now and avid ultra marathoner, that is not how Mez's story began, nor is it how he ever imagined it unfolding. Before his love affair with the sport began, he can remember thinking to himself how insane he thought people who ran marathons were. Funny how life unfolds, isn't it? Mez also shares his keen outlook on what it means to be an ultra runner, sacrificing some of his pace related goals for a more holistic and endurance-based approach to the sport. Mez then provides some key insight into why his career as a property consultant enables him to have an ideal work/life balance which is an important factor is his overall wellness as a human being. Because he has the ability to work when he wants, he can fit his training runs in whenever they are most convenient for his schedule which has really allowed him to blossom as a runner over the past few years. Dana Daniels, fellow runner, active yogi and one of Mez's most loyal training partners joins the show as guest host and offers up her story of how she fell in love with running. From quitting smoking, to an occasional walk around the block turned jog around the block, to local recreational races, to the Comrades Marathon (which is actually 87K) she has come to full heartedly embrace the empowerment that endurance-based movement provides her with. Dana shares the story of how the two first connected and gives the PRP listenership the inside scoop on Mez's post race fueling routine. What does Mez like to sip of after a long, hard, steep training run?! Mez gets vulnerable and shares some of the struggles he has been forced to juggle over the past year. From catching and recovering from COVID in June of '21, to a frustratingly perpetual injury that he has had to seek alternative support on, to working to solve his seemingly ceaseless race nutrition issues, Mez is an ideal example of how working to improve yourself as an endurance athlete is a never ending and constantly revolving process. In classic PRP form, the three take a deep dive into the world of Strava and Mez shares his mantra for the app, "If it's not on Strava, it didn't happen." How many times will the Zoom call drop on this international assembly of like minded runners? What is the Comrades Marathon and why is it so important to the culture and people of South Africa? Why should YOU consider signing up for the UTCT at some point in your life? Answers to all of these questions and oh so much more on this ultra-international episode of the PRP.

The Script Neoliberalism has badly damaged the economy in half of America in order to make a very small percentage of Americans much better off than they once were. Neoliberalism has basically cannibalized our Heartland and rural economy in order to concentrate our economy into a couple dozen hot desirable urban areas and several dozen upscale resort towns. Hot desirable high tech urban areas are doing fairly well though rapidly rising housing costs there are making it impossible for many young people to buy homes without lots of down-payment assistance. High rapidly-rising housing costs are also driving low-income and even lower-middle-income residents out of high-cost cities and resort towns. Metro-Denver where my wife and I live is a good example. Here our non-tipped minimum wage is $12.32/hour and our tipped minimum is $9.30/hour. Both rates will rise in January by 2.5%. Our median household income is $87K. However, our median home sales price has risen to $704K and our median rent to $1825/month. Our current jobless rate is only 4.6%. Retail price inflation here in housing, healthcare, grocery costs, and utility bills is up by about 40% since 2018. Housing cost here is up by close to double since 2012 and by 550% since 1991. (St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank's MSPUS chart). In 1991 the Federal non-tipped minimum wage was $4.25/hour. Healthcare costs here including the rise in out-of-pocket costs is up by close to triple since 2014 and by close to 1000% since 2000. Utility costs and numerous other costs are up by 250% since 2000 also. In 2000 the Federal minimum wage was $5.25/hour. I can see why older married homeowners are much more supportive of Biden than younger mainly renters are. Young people have never seen the kind of inflation we are seeing now even though inflation was in the 6-7% annual range from 1987-1991 and even higher in the 1970s. Rents and home prices are skyrocketing in most of America as new housing construction has greatly lagged demand in most of America. A recent real estate industry study found that new housing construction has been about 5 million units less than demand since 2000. Our hottest most-desirable cities and towns are out of land and nothing short of declaring eminent domain over entire suburbs of single-family housing, some of it nearly new, will fix the problem in our most-desirable urban areas, which also have our highest median incomes. Cost-driven outmigration from high-cost cities is driving housing and other living costs up in nearby lower-cost cities too. There are several articles in Kansas City media, the Kansas City Star and others, going back several years, decrying the Denverization of Kansas City. Outmigration from our even higher-cost West Coast cities has been driving home prices up in Boise, Denver, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Portland, and Salt Lake City too. There are still bargain cities in our Heartland such as most Southern Great Lakes cities, or many cities in the Deep South, but wages there are a lot lower too. Our older son lives in Valdosta, GA, where the median home sales price was $133K just a year ago, but don't plan on making more than $40K to $50K there either. Tallahassee is almost as affordable. In Metro-Detroit and the Cleveland, OH area there is plenty of affordable housing but both cities suffer high violent crime rates and a paucity of good-paying employment too. Numerous other Southern Great Lakes cities are affordable too. Obviously with Red Joe Manchin and his sidekick from Arizona relentlessly blocking the Democrat agenda on-behalf of Republicans Joe Biden's agenda is going nowhere. It is too bad that liberals and progressives didn't hold out on passing the infrastructure bill until the Build Back Better Act passed, as now Red Joe has reneged on his tacit agreement to the BBB Act before the infrastructure bill passed. Lots of average Americans are hurting but Red Joe like Republicans only cares about rich Americans and about maintaining his coal-fueled lifestyle. Likely absolutely no change is possible on climate change policy with Red Joe blocking every Democrat initiative. So we are in a stalemate hoping to break the logjam in the 2022 election. Republicans are going to vote in force so Democrats had better be ready to vote as close as possible to 100% of the electorate too. We really need at least 55 votes in the US Senate and control of the US House to have any chance of overcoming Red Joe and the other Blue Dogs and passing any of the Democrat agenda. Otherwise, we are going to lose our democracy to the Republican goal of a brutal right-wing rich makes right faux-Christian police and prison state banana republic dictatorship that liberals and progressives should seriously consider migrating away from.

JB:How’d you end up in sales?MM:Stumbled into sales Selling bathing suits at 15 in FL- getting people in suits they love the fit!College- worked as leasing agent almost full time throughout collegeMoved into COmmission only sales - ROUGHBDR role is tough in tech, but can be a lot harder as commission only rep with NO resources, sink or swim environment- if you didn’t sell, you didn’t get paid and can’t pay rentNeed to learn from the best people, get hungry and get grittySales training- getting into SaaS selling $30K deals vs. $30 swimsuitsMOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!Finding patterns, documenting them. Was in a role as the only sales person after everyone quit ....”why can’t we attract and retain salespeople??” there was NO TRAININGJB:Wow love these thoughts and the journey through sales. The vast majority of people I’ve interviewed don’t know what’s working or what they’ve done. Such good points and a great sales story for us to unpack!MM:How do we build training for all of the types of sellers3 different groups in sales teams, Middle of the pack, Still figuring it out & Peak performersThe beauty and challenge of sales it restarts every month/quarter/yearPeak PerformersHow do we get the peak performers that edge? How do we get them to perform even higher?As leaders, we see that person as good, making money and we realize they didn’t have upward mobility, thought they were happy but got complacent and they leave!I went into sales training with a lot of assumptions to test and completely debunkWhen I went into sales training, I thought everyone was LIKE ME- Hungry, eager to learn, gave them the training/tips/tactics/support that they would crush it….and that didn’t happen!We have a new tool. It's going to be amazing, but why aren’t people using it?First thing is understanding the mindset going into sales. Are they open to training? Are they open to resources?Give those sellers the WHY beyond; “you’re not going to get commission”Sales people are really creative. When you tell sellers to do something you find all the ways you can see how sellers get to acting like they did something. Give them their why? How do we understand their true motivation? It’s usually not money, because it’s a means to an end. It could be Mastery. Family. Travel. Mindset is the first thing I had to rethink as I started building sales training programs. I did a lot of things that didn’t work and miserably failed myself and had to adjust. Many sales leaders donJB: So much training focuses on the tactic or the thing and yet most managers only tell their reps to dial the phone more and yet it’s not really effective at all because most hires realize and know that dialing the phone more will make them more $$. MM:The thing around dialing and activity is one of the top reasons reps don’t trust their managers. So many times people are exhausted from hearing DO MORE DO MORE DO MORE, it really is the embodiment of the Hustle Culture. People are sick of hearing DO MOREThe best salespeople are problem solvers, they have natural curiosity. Exhausted of hearing do more and not seeing the results. They lose trust because they look at the numbers and see the best BDRs aren’t the one dialing the most. Clients come to me and say I hear do more and it’s not activity based. It’s a fine line, we know/studies show and natural intuition is obvious that we know if you do more, you will get more resultsIf you can get people to align with a strategy, most sellers want to learn WHY things work and it’s one of the best ways to motivate people.I see you’re good on the activity and lean into the STRATEGY In QBRs with teams (QBR Meg) - Training on how to do a 10-K Report - running through office but top seller had a quick question about 10-K, found something interesting between training that give the seller a new strategy or new way to approach an account to motivate them to be betterTo take someone from really good to great, having more moments of just being good and hitting quota can motivate, inspire and truly leadJB:100% is just doing your jobMM:The story that inspired The Path to President’s ClubMid-market team was between BDRs and senior sellers trained people. Manager quit right after a cycle of promotions, 5 people just got promoted and the manager quit. Took on a lot of responsibilities and learned a lot. Ask the team members, hey what do you want to achieve? 100% to quota…..no no what do you REALLY want to achieve?Went to a former mentor from MSFT, who had a former manager who didn’t push past 100%. Created this coaching slide. Ask people - what’s your mission statement? Who are YOU as a person? Not just as a seller.Asking people they had never been asked before. What are your goals(not just quota)? What are the goals you haven’t told anyone because you’re scared they’re going to tell you is not realistic but really lights you up inside?Because sales is so focused on lagging indicators of success, are you hitting quota or not?HItting your quota isn’t a superpowerStarted having really open conversation3 up 3 down - after every sales call 3 things that went well and 3 things that could be betterOur conversations about feedback are typically about going on a PIPOne rep that would live at my desk, ask questions every single day, open o so many things….last company president’s club was Quota attainment based upon your number. I want to be the first person from this team ever to make it to president’s club $100K my first quarter---- a little crazy and let’s go for it!Fell short, only sold $87K! Now let’s readjust, hit 100% in October then started to focus on new post-it notes on his desk and had 2 new ones. PC & SPOY - worked his butt off, hit PC, missed SPOY was 3rdThese incredible stories of motivation. It’s not that difficult if you have a framework.Managers are so focused on quota/close rateJB: You weren’t the manager, was it easier to have that conversation?MM:Lots of sales managers look at training/enablement to get the stuff doneI want to be in a position where you can work with people to have conversations I don’t have with the reps. I think the reason why a lot of managers struggle to enable people. A lot of times the way we train people is so SHADOWbased- follow some people around and you’ll pick it up. Most of the time it’s actually matching and mirroring. A lot of times people copy others vs. understand the STRATEGY/why. COACHING TEMPLATE AND FRAMEWORKWork with sales teams and define the top strengths and weaknesses we should be building in peopleWhat are the competencies for reps, BDRs and senior sales people moving towards managementBuild custom coaching frameworks that give them the list of all the things they can choose form and can self-assessWhat I see happening a lot of times in interviews and conversations with sales reps. They think they are doing a lot better than they are because they are only looking at sales numbers when managers have fears about the person’s ability to lead, have EQ, manage up.Performance falls into 3 buckets. Lagging indicators, performance metricsHow are you evaluating organizational values - how do we build more inclusive and supportive sales culturesCompetencies and skill sets - leading indicators of the leggings KPIsImagine if sales leaders had a more cohesive and comprehensive way of assessing performanceWhat if we had more direct conversations with reps about those things?JB: What has prevented this from happening in sales conversations in the past? MM:Been with sellers who don’t feel supportMost sales leaders are not going into sales thinking they don’t want to help their team, they are doing their bestWalk into work 1 day, have a territory, have a quotaPromoted, now walk into work, new desk, now 7 quotas, 7 different people -- but most people aren’t getting MANAGEMENT trainingMost training is for tactical individual sellingNeed to build empathy for managers - managers are managed and reported in the exact same way with lagging indicatorsThe strategy piece is the 110% In today’s sales management world actually training and supporting your reps is seen as going above and beyond...that needs to be totally flipped on its head. Lots of HR background but HR is not Sales, they are not sales training, they don’t know what it’s like to hold a quota over your head and start over every quarter. Create resources for the seller that I’ve been. I also know what it’s like to walk into a sales leadership meeting and look at all the challenges that other teams tell you and see you’re not hitting goals without knowing your own weaknesses, very similar challenges that aren’t talked aboutBetter coaching, better support and bettJB: Talk to me about humanity and vulnerability in salesMM: It’s so challenging to train people. It goes back to that HUMAN element - BDR had been in the role for 2 years, CRUSHING it and just moved to a partnership role, go to all SMEs ask for resources, get a lay of the land, the rep learned a lot about management and mentorship by making a mistake. 1 year into the role, had templates and had people asking for her help. She just gave them the resources, the templates she was using. Started talking to these people and they were using the EXACT same template form a year ago, but she hadn’t taught them the HOW AND WHY for them to create their own approach. We don’t know what we don’t know!Most managers struggle where they’re not trying to NOT train or coach and don’t get why it’s not workingVulnerability piece is SO hard and it’s so easy to get frustrated. But we as sales leaders need to recognize that Humans are Humans. Curse of Knowledge- as you get more advanced in your career it’s really easy to forget what it’s like to be that person who doesn’t knowWe need to have more empathy. WE need to make it OK to make mistakes. We need to encourage curiosity and empathy. Just as much as we encourage competition and collaboration as well as Grit.Vulnerability is the human trait I would like to see the most moving out of 2020 into 2021JB:Wow I’ve definitely seen this in the best leaders I’ve got to work with. What are the top qualities in leaders that you’ve worked with and want to emulate?MM: 1. Vulnerability - our current sales culture doesn’t leave space. It’s constantly so defensive (why aren’t you hitting? What’s missing here?) We are typically not met with empathy as a sales leader2. Empathy & EQ - should the manager be authoritarian - i want to be the person you come to with fears and challenges - Emotionally intelligent leaders go through to different leaders and progress in their careers and then come back to the leader with the emotional intelligence3. Transparency- without it, there’s no trust. We had to tell people I don’t have all the answers. Transparency is required to be vulnerable and to have high EQ. They see inherent risk involved in being JB: How do you bounce back?MM:Even as a consultant I have a business coach, I have mentors. A lot of people think entrepreneurs do it all on their own. It’s impossible to do it ALL on your own. I would encourage everyone to seek external mentorship, it’s very easy these days. RevGeniuns, Revenue Collective, Clubhouse making people really accessible (go find that person on LinkedIn and reference what you heard) Addicted to sticky notes, probably 40 around me at all times with Mantras that I’m working on. Little things. AND THAT’S OK. I’m not perfect, this was not ideal, or this didn’t work…..AND THAT’S OK!On my coaching sheet I have helpful quotes and mantras with mentors you can work with in specific areas5 Minute journal and gratitude journal to start everyday. Surround myself with people that lift me up and get me in the right mindset to get through tough months. JB: Morning routines and habitsMM:I’ve heard a lot of people share ideas that don’t work for me. And I believe discipline is important.FlexiplineI struggle with focus - 50 things I would LOVE to do but I’m always looking at - Mantra-- will this get me to the next $50K?List top priorities everydayREST- in such a hustle culture of sales, rest is critical, practicing self-love and healing to start everyday freshExternal mentorship group she runs.

For Haseeb's first software developer job, he was able to negotiate a total compensation package of US $250,000 for his first year at Airbnb. He believes negotiation is a skill that can be learned, just like any other. And it isn't particularly elusive or hard to understand. In this episode, he explains how anyone can negotiate effectively. Written and Read by Haseeb Qureshi: https://twitter.com/hosseeb Haseeb's original article: https://fcc.im/2FiLq0v Learn to code for free at: https://www.freecodecamp.org Intro music by Vangough: https://fcc.im/2APOG02 Transcript: When the story of how I landed a job at Airbnb went viral, I was surprised at how infatuated people were with my negotiations. Media stories portrayed me as some kind of master negotiator — a wily ex-poker-player who was able to con the tech giants into a lucrative job offer. This is silly. It’s silly for a lot of reasons, but one of the main ones is that in reality, my negotiation skills are nothing special. There are lots of job candidates who are better negotiators than I, to speak nothing of recruiters and other professional negotiators. It just so happens that most people don’t negotiate at all, or if they do, they negotiate just enough to satisfy themselves that they did. Worse yet, most of the advice out there on negotiation is borderline useless. Almost anything you read on the subject will be a vague and long-winded exhortation to “make sure you negotiate” and “never say the first number.” Beyond those two morsels of advice, you’re pretty much on your own. I thought to myself: why is there so little actionable advice out there about negotiation? I suspect it’s because deep down, many people believe that negotiation is inexplicable, that it’s something some people can do and others can’t, and that there’s no real way to break it down so anyone can learn it. I say that’s BS. Negotiation is a skill that can be learned, just like any other. I don’t believe it’s particularly elusive or hard to understand. So I’m going to try to explain how anyone can do it. Three caveats. First: I’m not an expert. There are people who really are experts at this, and when my advice contradicts theirs, you should assume I’m wrong. Second: negotiation is tricky to generalize about because it’s deeply intertwined with social dynamics and power. The appropriate advice for an Asian male in Silicon Valley may not be appropriate for a black woman in Birmingham, Alabama. Racial, sexual, and political dynamics accompany you to the negotiating table. At the same time, I want to caution against overemphasizing these factors. Being afraid to negotiate out of fear of discrimination can often be just as deleterious as discrimination itself. Ceteris paribus, negotiate aggressively. Third: I’m the first to admit that negotiation is stupid. It’s a practice that inherently benefits those who are good at it, and is an absurd axis on which to reward people. But it’s a reality of our economic system. And like most collective action problems, we’re probably not going to be able to abolish it any time soon. In which case, you might as well improve at it. So here’s my guide to negotiation. It’s going to be split into two parts: this first part will be about conceptualizing the negotiating process, about how to begin the process and set yourself up for maximal success. The second part will be advice on the actual back-and-forth portion of negotiating and how to ask for what you want. Let’s take it from the top. What it means to “get a job” In our culture we call entering the employment market “trying to get a job.” This is an unfortunate turn of phrase. “Getting a job” implies that jobs are a resource out in the world, and you’re attempting to secure one of these resources. But that’s completely backwards. What you are actually doing is selling your labor, and a company is bidding for it. Employment is just striking a mutual deal in the labor market. Like any market, the labor market only functions well if it’s competitive. This is the only way to ensure fair and equitable pricing. Imagine you were a farmer selling watermelons. Would you just sell your watermelons to the first buyer who agreed to purchase them? Or would you survey the marketplace of buyers, see the best price (and business partner) you could get, and then make an informed decision on which buyer to sell to? And yet, when people talk about the labor market, they think “oh, a company wants to give me a job! What a relief!” As though having a job were in itself some special privilege for which a company is the gatekeeper. Dispel yourself of this mindset. A job is just a deal. It is a deal between you and a company to exchange labor for money (and other things you value). This might sound like an abstract point, but you should absolutely approach negotiation from this perspective. The role of negotiation Negotiating is a natural and expected part of the process of trying to make a deal. It’s also a signal of competence and seriousness. Companies generally respect candidates who negotiate, and most highly attractive candidates negotiate (if for no other reason, because they often have too many options to choose from). At the risk of spouting truisms: always, always negotiate. It doesn’t matter how good or bad you think you are. You never damage a relationship by negotiating. In all my time as an instructor at App Academy, out of hundreds of offers negotiated, only once or twice were offers ever rescinded in negotiations. It basically never happens. And when it does, usually the candidate was being an unconscionable asshole, or the company was imploding and needed an excuse to rescind the offer. You might think to yourself: “well, I don’t want to set high expectations, and the offer is already generous, so I ought to just take it.” No. Negotiate. Or maybe: “I don’t want to start off on the wrong foot and look greedy with my future employer.” No. Negotiate. “But this company is small and — “ No. Shut up. Negotiate. We’ll talk more in the next section about why a lot of these objections are BS, and fundamentally misapprehend the dynamics of hiring. But for now, just trust me that you should always negotiate. The ten rules of negotiating I’ve tried to boil down negotiation to ten rules. The rules, in order of appearance, are: - Get everything in writing - Always keep the door open - Information is power - Always be positive - Don’t be the decision maker - Have alternatives - Proclaim reasons for everything - Be motivated by more than just money - Understand what they value - Be winnable We’ll only get through some of these in this blog post, and the rest will appear in the second part. But I’ll explain each rule as we get to it. So let’s start from the top and try to walk through a negotiation process from the very beginning. For most, that starts when you receive an offer. The offer conversation You’ve just received the phone call: your interview went well, and after much deliberation they decided they like you. They want to make you an offer. Congratulations! Don’t get too excited though. The fun is just getting started. Thank your recruiter. Sound excited — hopefully this won’t be hard. Before jumping into details, try to ask for specific feedback on your interview performance. If they give it to you, this will help you gauge how much they want you, as well as tell you things you can improve on in your next interview(s). Now time to explore the offer. Rule #1 of negotiating: have everything in writing. Eventually, they’ll give you information about the offer. Write it all down. Doesn’t matter if they’re going to send you a written version later, write everything down. Even if there are things that are not directly monetary, if they relate to the job, write them down. If they tell you “we’re working on porting the front-end to Angular,” write that down. If they say they have 20 employees, write that down. You want as much information as you can. You’ll forget a lot of this stuff, and it’s going to be important in informing your final decision. Depending on the company, they’ll also tell you about the equity package. We’ll look more specifically at equity in part II, but be sure to write everything down. The rule from here on out is that everything significant you discuss will have some kind of a paper trail. Often, the company won’t even send you an official offer letter until a deal is finalized. So it falls to you to confirm all of the important details in subsequent e-mails. So yadda yadda, lots of details, writing stuff down, oh there’s a joke, time to laugh. Now the recruiter is done talking and you’re done asking all of your questions. Your recruiter will now say something along the lines of “so what do you think?” This seems innocuous, but your reply here is critical, because there’s a lot you can say to weaken your position. This is your first decision point. A decision point is a moment in the negotiation where your interlocutor wants to compel you to make a decision. If they succeed in tying you to a position, they will close the door on further negotiating. Of course “what do you think?” is a subtle prod. But it is the beginning of many attempts to get you to make a premature commitment. This leads to rule #2 of negotiating: always keep the door open. Never give up your negotiating power until you’re absolutely ready to make an informed, deliberate final decision. This means your job is to traverse as many of these decision points as possible without giving up the power to continue negotiating. Very frequently, your interlocutor will try to trick you into making a decision, or tie you to a decision you didn’t commit to. You must keep verbally jiu-jitsu-ing out of these antics until you’re actually ready to make your final decision. Protecting information There’s an uncomfortable silence by now, and their “what do you think?” is hanging in the air. If you say “yes, that sounds amazing, when do I start?” you implicitly accept the offer and completely close the door on the negotiation. This is your recruiter’s number one favorite thing to hear. It stands to reason you probably shouldn’t do this. But their second favorite thing to hear you say is “can you do 90K instead of 85K?” This also closes the door, but for a different and more subtle reason. And it’s the number one reason why most people suck at negotiation. Rule #3 of negotiating: information is power. To protect your power in the negotiation, you must protect information as much as possible. A company doesn’t give you insight into what it’s thinking. It doesn’t tell you its price range, how much it paid the previous candidate with your experience, or anything like that. It intentionally obfuscates those things. But it wants you not to do the same. A company wants to be like a bidder in a secret auction. But unlike the other bidders, it wants to know exactly how high all of the other bids are. It then openly intends to exploit that knowledge, often by bidding one cent more than the second highest bid. Yeah, no. Screw that. It’s a silent auction, and to keep it that way, you must protect information. In many situations, the only reason why you have any negotiating power at all is because the employer doesn’t actually know what you’re thinking. They might not know how good your other offers are, or how much you were making in your last job, or how you weigh salary vs equity, or even how rational you are as a decision-maker. Bottom line, you want them to be uncertain on exactly what it would take to sign you. When you say “can you do 90K instead of 85K,” you’ve told them exactly what it will take to make you sign. The sheet’s pulled back, the secret auction is up, and they’re going to bid 90K (or more likely, 87K). And they know there’s almost no risk in doing so, because you’ll probably accept. What if you were the kind of person who wouldn’t even consider an offer below 110K? Or the kind of person who wouldn’t consider an offer below 120K? If you were, you wouldn’t ask for 90K, and if they offered it as conciliation, you’d tell them to stop wasting your time. By staying silent, they don’t actually know which of those kinds of people you are. In their mind, you could be any of the three. A corollary of this rule is that you should not reveal to companies what you’re currently making. There are some exceptions, but as a rule you should assume this. If you must divulge what you’re making, you should be liberal in noting the total value of your package (incorporate bonuses, unvested stock, nearness to promotion etc.), and always mention it in a context like “[XYZ] is what I’m currently making, and I’m definitely looking for a step up in my career for my next role.” Companies will ask about your current compensation at different stages in the process — some before they ever interview you, some after they decide to make you an offer. But be mindful of this, and protect information. So given this offer, don’t ask for more money or equity or anything of the sort. Don’t comment on any specific details of the offer except to clarify them. Give away nothing. Retain your power. Say instead: “Yeah, [COMPANY_NAME] sounds great! I really thought this was a good fit, and I’m glad that you guys agree. Right now I’m talking with a few other companies so I can’t speak to the specific details of the offer until I’m done with the process and get closer to making a decision. But I’m sure we’ll be able to find a package that we’re both happy with, because I really would love to be a part of the team.” Think like the watermelon farmer. This offer is just the first businessman who’s stopped by your watermelon patch, glanced over your crops, and announced “I’ll take all of these right now for $2 a melon.” Cool. It’s a big market, and you’re patient — you’re a farmer after all. Just smile and tell them you’ll keep their offer in mind. And this is super important: always be unequivocally positive. The importance of positivity Staying positive is rule #4 of negotiation. Even if the offer sucks, it’s extremely important to remain positive and excited about the company. This is because your excitement is one of your most valuable assets in a negotiation. A company is making you an offer because they think you’ll do hard work for them if they pay you. If you lose your excitement for the company during the interview process, then they’ll lose confidence that you’ll actually want to work hard or stay there for a long time. Each of those makes you less attractive as an investment. Remember, you are the product! If you become less excited, then the product you’re selling actually loses value. Imagine you were negotiating with someone over buying your watermelons, but the negotiation took so long that by the time you’d reached an agreement, your watermelons had gone bad. Companies are terrified of that. They don’t want their candidates to go bad during a negotiation. Hence why they hire professional recruiters to manage the process and make sure they remain amicable. You and the recruiter share the same interest in that regard. If a company feels like you’ve gone bad, suddenly they’re a lot less willing to pay for you. So despite whatever is happening in the negotiation, give the company the impression that 1) you still like the company, and that 2) you’re still excited to work there, even if the numbers or the money or the timing is not working out. Generally the most convincing thing to signal this is to reiterate you love the mission, the team, or the problem they’re working on, and really want to see things work out. Don’t be the decision-maker You can wrap up the conversation now by saying: “I’ll look over some of these details and discuss it with my [FAMILY / CLOSE_FRIENDS / SIGNIFICANT_OTHER]. I’ll reach out to you if I have any questions. Thanks so much for sharing the good news with me, and I’ll be in touch!” So not only are you ending the conversation with the power all in your hands, but note there’s another important move here: you’re roping in other decision-makers. Rule #5 of negotiation: don’t be the decision-maker. Even if you don’t particularly care what your friends/family/husband/mother thinks, by mentioning them, you’re no longer the only person the recruiter needs to win over. There’s no point in them trying to bully and intimidate you; the “true decision-maker” is beyond their reach. This is a classic technique in customer support and remediation. It’s never the person on the phone’s fault, they’re just some poor schmuck doing their job. It’s not their decision to make. This helps to defuse tension and give them more control of the situation. It’s much harder to pressure someone if they’re not the final decision-maker. So take advantage of that. Okay! We have our first offer. Send a follow-up e-mail confirming all of the details you discussed with your recruiter so you have a paper trail. Just say “just wanted to confirm I had all the details right.” Groovy. Next step is to leverage this to land other offers and find the best deal we can find in the job market. Getting other offers Turns out, it doesn’t matter that much where your first offer is from, or even how much they’re offering you. Just having an offer in hand will get the engine running. If you’re already in the pipeline with other companies (which you should be if you’re doing it right), you should proactively reach out and let them know that you’ve just received an offer. Try to build a sense of urgency. Regardless of whether you know the expiration date, all offers expire at some point, so take advantage of that. “Hello [PERSON], I just wanted to update you on my own process. I’ve just received an offer from [COMPANY] which is quite strong. That said, I’m really excited about [YOUR AMAZING COMPANY] and really want to see if we can make it work. Since my timeline is now compressed, is there anything you can do to expedite the process?” Should you specifically mention the company that gave you an offer? Depends. If it’s a well-known company or a competitor, then definitely mention it. If it’s a no-name or unsexy company, you should just say you received an offer. If it’s expiring soon, you should mention that as well. Either way, send out a letter like this to every single company you’re talking to. No matter how hopeless or pointless you think your application is, you want to send this signal to everyone who is considering you in the market. Second, if there are any other companies you are looking to apply to (whether through referral or cold application), or even companies at which you’ve already applied but haven’t heard back, I would also follow up with a similar e-mail. So why do this? Isn’t this tacky, annoying, or even desperate? None of the above. It is the oldest method in history to galvanize a marketplace — show that supplies are limited and build urgency. Demand breeds demand. Not every company will respond to this, but many will. Isn’t it stupid that companies respond to this though? Why companies care about other offers When I wrote about the story of my own job search, I mentioned how having an offer from Google made companies turn around and expedite me through their funnels. Many commentators lamented at the capriciousness of these companies. If Uber or Twitch only talked to me because of Google and until then weren’t willing to look at me, what did that say about their hiring processes? What legitimately are they evaluating, if anything at all? I think this response is totally backwards. The behavior of tech companies here is actually very rational, and you would do well to understand it. First, you must realize what a company’s goal is. A company’s goal is to hire someone who will become an effective employee and produce more value than their cost. How do you figure out who will do that? Well, you can’t know for certain without actually hiring them, but there are a few proxies. Pedigree is the strongest signal; if they did it at other companies, they can probably do it at yours. And if someone trusted within the organization can vouch for them, that’s often a strong signal as well. But turns out, almost everything else is a weak signal. Weak in the sense that it’s just not very reliable. Interviews, if you think about it, are long, sweaty, uncomfortable affairs that only glancingly resemble actual employment. They’re weird and can’t tell you that much about whether an individual will be good at their job. There’s no way around this. There are a few stronger signals, like bringing someone in for a week or two on a contract-to-hire position, but strong candidates won’t consider this. So candidates as a whole have effectively forced companies to assume almost all of the risk in hiring. The truth is, knowing that someone has passed your interview just doesn’t say that much about whether they’ll be a good employee. It’s as though you knew nothing about a student other than their SAT score. It’s just not a lot of data to go off. Nobody has solved this problem. Not Google nor anyone else. And this is precisely why it’s rational for companies to care that you’ve received other offers. They care because each company knows that their own process is noisy, and the processes of most other companies are also noisy. But a candidate having multiple offers means that they have multiple weak signals in their favor. Combined, these converge into a much stronger signal than any single interview. It’s like knowing that a student has a strong SAT score, and GPA, and won various scholarships. Sure, it’s still possible that they’re a dunce, but it’s much harder for that to be true. This is not to say that companies respond proportionally to these signals, or that they don’t overvalue credentials and brands. They do. But caring about whether you have other offers and valuing you accordingly is completely rational. So this is all to say — tell other companies that you’ve received offers. Give them more signal so that they know you’re a valued and compelling candidate. And understand why this changes their mind about whether to interview you. As you continue interviewing, remember to keep practicing your interview skills. The single strongest determinant of your final offer will be the number and strength of offers that you receive. Some advice on timing You want to be strategic about the timing of your offers. Generally, you should try to start interviewing at larger companies earlier. Their processes are slower and their offer windows are wider (meaning they allow you more time to decide). Startups are the other way around. Your goal should be to have as many offers overlapping at the same time as possible. This will maximize your window for negotiating. When you receive an offer, often the first thing you should ask for is more time to make your decision. Especially in your first offer, more time is by far the most valuable thing you can ask for. It’s time that enables you to activate other companies and end up with the strongest possible offer. So be prepared to fight for time. How to approach exploding offers Hoo boy. Exploding offers are offers that expire within 24–72 hours. You won’t see this much at big companies, but they’re becoming increasingly common among startups and mid-sized companies. Exploding offers suck, and I share most people’s disdain for this practice. But I do understand it. Exploding offers are a natural weapon for employers to combat a strong hiring market for tech workers. Companies know exactly what they’re doing with exploding offers — they play on fear and limit your ability to seek out counteroffers. In a sense, it’s unsurprising that if startups have more difficulty attracting and securing talent, they’d resort to this practice. What I don’t like is the dishonesty about it. Employers often justify this by saying: “If you need more time than this, then that’s a sign you’re not the kind of person we’re looking for.” Please don’t buy this crap or feel guilty over it. They’re simply doing this to improve their chance of closing candidates. Needing more than three days to make a life decision isn’t a sign of anything other than thoughtfulness. So what should you do if you receive an exploding offer? Exploding offers are anathema to your ability to effectively navigate the labor market. Thus, there is only one thing to do. Treat the offer as a non-offer unless the expiration window is widened. In no uncertain terms, convey that if the offer is exploding, it’s useless to you. Example conversation: “I have one big concern. You mentioned that this offer explodes in 48 hours. I’m afraid this doesn’t work at all for me. There’s no way that I can make a decision on this offer within a 48 hour window. I’m currently wrapping up my interview process at a few other companies, which is likely to take me another week or so. So I’m going to need more time to make an informed decision.” If they push back and say this is the best they can do, then politely reply: “That’s really unfortunate. I like [YOUR COMPANY] and was really excited about the team, but like I said, there’s no way I can consider this offer. 48 hours is just too unreasonable of a window. The next company I join will be a big life decision for me, and I take my commitments very seriously. I also need to consult with my [EXTERNAL_DECISION_MAKER]. There’s no way that I can make a decision I’m comfortable with in this short an amount of time.” Pretty much any company will relent at this point. If they persist, don’t be afraid to walk away over it. (They probably won’t let that happen, and will come grab you as you’re walking out the door. But if they don’t, then honestly, screw ‘em.) I was given several exploding offers during my job search. And every time, I did essentially this. Every single offer immediately widened to become more reasonable, sometimes by several weeks. I want to emphasize, lest I be misunderstood here — what I’m saying is not to just silently let an exploding offer expire, and assume that everything will be fine and they’ll still hire you. They won’t. For exploding offers to be a credible weapon, a company has to have a reputation of enforcing them. I’m saying explicitly call this out as an issue when they make the offer. Don’t let a company bully you into giving away your negotiating power. The Negotiating Mindset Before we enter into the actual back-and-forth, I want to examine the mindset you should have as a negotiator. This applies not just to how you approach the conversation, but also to how you think about the company. Do not fall into the trap of valuing companies solely along one dimension. That means don’t just value companies based on salary, equity, or even on prestige. Those are all important dimensions, but so are cultural fit, the challenge of the work, learning potential, later career options, quality of life, growth potential, and just overall happiness. None of these inherently trump any of the other. Anyone who tells you “just choose wherever you think you’ll be happiest” is being just as simplistic as someone who says “just choose the one that offers the most money.” All of these things matter, and your decision should be genuinely multi-dimensional. Be open to being surprised as you explore different companies. It’s also important to understand that companies don’t all value you along the same dimension either. That is, different companies are genuinely looking for different skills, and there are some companies at which you will be more and less valuable. Even at peer companies this is true, especially so if you have a specialized skill-set. The more companies you talk to, the more likely you are to find a company to which you are significantly more valuable than the rest. Chances are this is where you’ll be able to negotiate your strongest offer. It might surprise you which company this turns out to be; keep an open mind, and remember that a job search is a 2-sided process. One of the most valuable things you can do for yourself in this process is to really try to understand how employers think and what motivates them. Understanding your interlocutor is extremely important in negotiation, and we’ll be exploring that a lot in the next blog post. But most of all I want to emphasize: be curious about the other side. Try to understand why employers think the way they do. Be sympathetic toward them. Care about what they want and help them try to get it. Adopting this mindset will make you a much stronger negotiator, and accordingly, a much better employee and team member. Okay. That’s as far as we’re going for today. In the next blog post, I’m going to cover the last four rules of negotiation. I’ll also go over the actual back-and-forth process — how to ask for what you want, how to strengthen offers, and how to dismantle the tricks that companies will try to pull on you. Also a lot more on the theory of negotiation, which I really dig.

The sequence of the gene encoding glycoprotein H (gH) of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) strain Smith was determined and compared with the sequence of the gH of MCMV strain K181. Transcriptional analysis showed that gH is encoded by a large mRNA of 5.0 kb, which is synthesized late in infection. A recombinant vaccinia virus expressing the MCMV gH open reading frame was constructed (Vac-gH). Anti-MCMV serum precipitated a protein of 87K from Vac-gH-infected cells. Reactivity with a monoclonal antibody showed the identity of the MCMV gH with a 87K envelope glycoprotein described previously by Loh and Qualtiere. Immunization of mice with the Vac-gH recombinant gave rise to an anti-gH serum, which neutralized MCMV without complement in vitro.
