In This Episode: [02:31] We're going to talk about how to look to the past in order to look to the future. [03:56] We learn about Dan's many jobs until he read Tim Ferriss's book and started thinking about alternatives. [04:55] He mostly worked in agencies until he started Sales Schema as a fractional new business team. [06:18] His tendency is to go to the past to figure out the future. [07:03] he's a believer in building energy through meaning. He's a fan of Viktor Frankl's book, Man's Search For Meaning. [08:55] The advantage of being able to look at history and understand why something does or doesn't work. [09:55] Figuring out why something is no longer working. [11:26] What has changed with the people you're interacting with? Historically we're kind of in a "trust recession". [13:25] The internet and information technology has delivered a lot for us, but we don't know how much more value there is left to be extracted. [14:47] The stuff that's going to be valuable is the stuff that has been valuable. Such as things that have been scarce. [16:22] When you know we're in a "trust recession" you need to find a way to differentiate yourself. Go back to what scares like commonality. [17:47] The things that people want long-term change over time. [19:06] Pay attention to trends and notice how they are the same or different from past trends. [22:14] Nikki says that rapport builds relationships and people want to buy from people who they trust and have a relationship and connection. [24:15] Dan gives an example of hybrid sales. They have video content which they include with their sales process. [27:19] The advantages of repelling people who aren't in alignment as fast as possible. [29:10] Really paying attention to trends. Just because it worked in the past doesn't mean it's going to work now. Pay attention to what your clients say and what they're looking for. [30:52] Using secret languages to speak with prospects. [34:08] The importance of paying attention to language. Words matter. [36:43] Most of what we see now is downstream of technology. The order seems to be a scientific breakthrough, to technology, to economy, to culture. [39:32] Dan's 15-month-old son brings him joy. He also hosted a College radio show and was the hip hop director for a Santa Cruz radio station. [40:32] His business is pivoting to a training model. They also have a new content channel, and they're messing around with a lot of new tools. For more actionable sales tips, download the FREE Closing The Sale Ebook.

Rich interviews Ryan Groth from Sales Transformation Group on what he calls “Baseline” selling.
In today's ultra-competitive market with low inventory and relatively high rates, leads are harder to come by, and yet, many are unwittingly wasting the few they do get by making costly mistakes. The key to thriving unthriving times isn't necessarily just about getting more leads, but in converting more of the ones you already have into high-quality, high-paying clients who send referrals, give rave reviews and then come back to do repeat business, Focusing solely on generating more leads might mean you're missing the bigger picture. The real issue often isn't the quantity of leads but the quality of your lead source and the quality of your follow-up. Many MLOs are letting potential deals slip through their fingers by not fully capitalizing on the opportunities they already have.

The challenge is, most salespeople can't recognize when they're making one of these critical mistakes. If they did, they'd stop right away—because these mistakes are slowly killing their sales. In this video, I'm going to show you three crushing mistakes most salespeople are making—and most importantly, how to avoid them. Check it out!So, there you have it: Three crushing mistakes most salespeople make. Have you ever made one of these mistakes before? If so, what was the result? I want to hear from you.

I'm your host, Marc Wayshak.In this episode of Data Driven Selling, we delve into a fundamental challenge faced by sales professionals: How to close deals more quickly and prevent them from slipping through the cracks. Marc emphasizes that many issues encountered at the end of the sales process actually stem from how the process was initiated. To address this, Marc introduces a five-step strategy designed to accelerate any sales cycle and drive more effective results:1. Organize your entire process.Every professional salesperson, and every sales organization as a whole, must have a good CRM system in place to organize everything. The last thing you want to do is just have your entire sales process organized in some Excel spreadsheets, on paper, or in Google Docs.You don't ever want to walk into the office wondering what your day will look like. Your process should be so organized that you already know exactly what each day is going to entail. There must be a particular system through which you can see your entire pipeline, so that way nothing is ever slipping through the cracks. The more organized your process, the better off you'll be. Having a good CRM system that really holds it all together is simply key to closing the sale faster.2. Disqualify prospects.This is less about organization and more about how you're actually selling. One of the reasons many sales start to slow down is that they were never truly qualified in the first place. You must become adept at using a systematic process to understand whether each prospect is actually qualified or disqualified. This is essential to closing the sale faster, because otherwise you'll spend all of your time with disqualified prospects that have just kind of hung around in your pipeline. You've got to clean those people out, and move on. By learning to disqualify prospects early on, you'll enable yourself to focus your time and energy on prospects that are actually a good fit.3. Present only what's relevant.Salespeople constantly want to present their entire offering to every single prospect. But the reality is that you probably have an offering that's pretty broad. And so your prospects often don't need everything that you do. They only need certain things.Presenting features or components of your offering that are outside the scope of what the prospect is really trying to solve only distracts them—and slows down the sale.If you really want to close the sale faster, you must present only what's relevant.4. Be NSO.NSO stands for Next Step Obsessed. One of the most common reasons sales start to slow down is a lack of clear next steps. If you really want to start closing the sale faster, then you need to become absolutely obsessed with next step. As in, you can't sleep at night if you know that you didn't schedule a next step in that last meeting.Once you prioritize next steps and become militant about scheduling them in every meeting or sales conversation, you'll noticed that you're able to hold sales together far more effectively.One of the biggest mistakes you can make in sales is to give a proposal to a prospect and then plan to “reconnect in a couple of months” or something similarly vague. Instead, there should always be a scheduled appointment in the calendar. Become obsessed with asking every prospect, “Do you have your calendar in front of you?” before ending any sales conversation. (And by the way, everyone has their calendar in front of them nowadays.)Always get that next step in the calendar right then and there, and send out a calendar invite while you're actually on the phone or on the Zoom or for face to face with the prospect. Always be obsessed with next steps.That's going to hold the sale together. And it's going to condense your sales cycle, so you can start closing the sale faster.5. Live by your pipeline.The next step to closing the sale faster is to become crystal clear—and truly honest—about your pipeline's strongest opportunities, and where you need to focus your time. Living by your pipeline and only focusing on the very best opportunities means condensing that sales cycle and closing the sale faster. And, quite frankly, more frequently.

I'm your host, Marc Wayshak, and today we're joined by the head coach at the Sales Insights Lab, Coach Tiffany Torres. In this episode, Marc and Tiffany discuss the significance and benefits of targeting larger deals in sales, challenging common assumptions, and realigning mindsets toward high-stakes opportunities. Marc Wayshak begins by explaining three ways to increase sales: more prospects, higher closing rates, and bigger deals, emphasizing that the latter is often overlooked despite its potential impact on revenue.Coach Tiffany advises sales professionals to focus on the value of the problems they solve for prospects rather than just the cost of their product or service. By doing so, salespeople can effectively communicate the worth of their offering in relation to the prospect's challenge, creating an opportunity to discuss and justify higher budgets.The conversation shifts to strategies for increasing deal sizes, such as dynamic pricing, offering tiered service packages, and targeting bigger companies with larger budgets. They highlight the importance of understanding the prospect's language and tailoring the value proposition accordingly.Marc and Tiffany advise on pipeline management, emphasizing the need to cultivate multiple large opportunities so any single deal doesn't become disproportionately crucial, a concept likened to balancing on a beam at different heights. With a full pipeline, salespeople can operate from a position of power, less concerned about individual losses and more focused on the many opportunities ahead.Finally, they wrap up with a discussion on adopting a "some will, some won't, so what" attitude, recognizing when to move on from a lost prospect, and how small increases in average sales size can lead to significant overall growth.Listeners are also invited to access a free video training to learn a five-step formula to close more deals, available at closing training.Key Topics:1.

These are the tough, intimidating sorts that can dominate a sale, often leaving even the most seasoned reps feeling like they've stepped into the ring with a heavyweight champion. But fear not! Coach Tiffany and I are here to deconstruct the mythos of the alpha prospect and provide you with the game plan to not only survive but thrive in these daunting encounters.We'll be revealing why it's essential to stand your ground. We show you that sales, at its core, is a game—a game where intimidation is purely psychological and can be conquered through a steadfast strategy and an unwavering mind frame.From reframing our perspective, to sticking to our process, engaging fully in the conversation, and delivering undeniable value, we're unpacking the tactical approaches that will help you engage with alpha prospects on an equal footing, turning potential adversaries into allies in your sales journey.By the end of our conversation, you'll be equipped with the insights and confidence needed to tackle those high-octane sales meetings. Change the way you perceive these prospects and transform trepidation into excitement. Remember, it's just a game, and we're here to win.Sales Strategies for High-Value Clients: "Alpha prospects are some of those people that can, like you have nightmares about actually running into a sales scenario with, but in reality they're people just like anybody else. And if you're coming in with a strong strategy, you're going to be fine with them."— Coach Tiffany [00:00:46 → 00:01:00]Navigating Power Dynamics: "And they, you know, a lot of times people in this space are walking around thinking like you're either a predator or you're prey and you're kind of walking in with that sign that says you're one or the other."— Coach Tiffany [00:03:16 → 00:03:27]Business Communication Candidness: "Exactly. And they're not taking the meeting to be nice. And you'll know where you stand with them, which is really cool. They'll tell you. They'll be really blunt often and say, I don't see how this makes sense. Or they'll tell you, like, I can kind of see that. And you know exactly where you stand."— Coach Tiffany [00:04:36 → 00:04:50]Sales Leadership in Negotiations: "What they want to have happen. The issue is that in sales, you have to take that leadership position and own this opportunity for them. So you have to define it by your process and not let them push you into a space where they're deciding and dictating what comes next or how things go."— Coach Tiffany [00:05:28 → 00:05:43]Sales Approach Wisdom: "sales is about having a conversation. It's not about a performance."— Coach Tiffany [00:06:48 → 00:06:51]The Art of Conversation: "And that back and forth that happens with somebody when you're just, like, kind of guiding them through questions can be so powerful for them. And that's what usually breaks that wall that they've got built up around what they really think or what's going on in their situation."— Coach Tiffany [00:07:59 → 00:08:14]Building Better Business Relationships: "Yeah. It takes them from feeling like adversaries to feeling like partners. Right. Like, that's the goal. That's the trajectory you're aiming for."— Coach Tiffany [00:08:58 → 00:09:04]Understanding Value in Sales: "It's what they're fishing for. It's the thing that's going to open up the door and they're not looking at value as like, what can you tell me about your service?"— Coach Tiffany [00:10:32 → 00:10:41]Understanding Sales Dynamics: "Every time you show up to a sales experience, you're kind of just, like, exploring the space and being like, oh, so that's the game we're going to be playing today. And then you can really come at them from this, like, informed perspective."— Coach Tiffany [00:12:33 → 00:12:44]Turning Anxiety into Excitement: "when your heart starts to beat faster and stuff like that, there's no real difference physiologically between excitement and anxiousness. So I would always just say as like, oh, I'm excited."— Coach Tiffany [00:13:43 → 00:13:55]

We start by acknowledging the potential confrontational nature of addressing objections and emphasize the importance of softening our approach.The episode kicks off with a listener question from KC Carlyle, who expresses frustration with solid conversations with prospects that end in a "think it over" response. Coach Tiffany and I discuss the need to push prospects for clarity rather than accepting a soft rejection to avoid a hard no.We explore the different types of objections, including cover, concern, condition, and complacency, and highlight the importance of understanding the underlying reasons behind a prospect's "think it over" response. By slowing down the conversation, acknowledging the objection, and helping the prospect clarify their thoughts and feelings, we aim to move towards a decision rather than leaving them in decision purgatory.Throughout the episode, we stress the significance of creating a collaborative and supportive environment with prospects, rather than adopting a pushy or desperate sales approach. By focusing on building trust, understanding the prospect's concerns, and addressing objections with a structured process, sales professionals can navigate "think it over" objections effectively and ultimately drive towards a decision.We conclude by emphasizing the importance of mindset in handling objections, highlighting the need for sales professionals to be willing to let go of a potential sale if it's not the right fit. By approaching objections with a strategic and empathetic mindset, sales professionals can enhance their sales process and increase their chances of closing deals successfully.Join us in this insightful episode as we provide practical tips and strategies for handling "think it over" objections in sales and empowering sales professionals to navigate objections with confidence and clarity."We can't take the soft rejection so that we don't get that hard no." - 00:01:15-00:01:25"The goal isn't at that moment to push the prospect across the finish line. The goal is to push them for the clarity to get them to want to voluntarily cross the finish line." - 00:02:24-00:02:34"Yeah, I mean, really all we want is a decision. Whether it's a yes or a no is OK. We just want to get to a decision." - 00:02:56-00:03:07"So we've got to really like soften it. To me, this is the most important part of handling any objection because like I think you always talk about is like this may be the end of the objection." - 00:13:13-00:13:23"Getting them to clarify sometimes like when people just articulate what they're thinking, that kind of solves their thing." - 00:14:47-00:14:58"You can't get to effective tactical implementation until the mindset's solid." - 00:18:35-00:18:45"You may need a sale, but you don't need this sale." - 00:18:35-00:18:45"You need to be willing to let somebody go. You can't try to hold onto them if that sale is not gonna happen." - 00:18:55-00:19:05"Once you just say like, hey, I'm okay with losing this, there's others out there, then all of a sudden that frees you up to really help them and help yourself to figure out, is this a." - 00:19:07-00:19:18"Thanks for listening.

Why? Because few salespeople out there are focused on the math behind their success.Instead, they're focused on what they have to say, or do, to be successful. But knowing the math behind your lead generation efforts is absolutely critical, too.This is one of those sales secrets that truly separates top performers from the rest of the pack. Assuming your lead generation processes are strong enough (you have a decent prospecting call, and you send out solid emails), knowing the math behind your lead generation is the next imperative for success.Sales Secret #2: All that matters is what leads to sales.When it comes to sales secrets that really make a difference, this one creates a tremendously important distinction. The vast majority of salespeople get so distracted throughout the day by tasks that are not sales-related. But in the end, all that matters is what leads to sales. Every single task you do that's not helping you close more sales is ultimately a distraction. You need to become really, really strong at removing all that clutter from your day.You only have so many hours in the day. Make sure those hours are spent toward generating sales, and nothing else.Sales Secret #3: “No” isn't bad.There are three potential outcomes in any selling situation: yes, no, or some wishy-washy version of “I'll get back to you” or “I need to think it over.” Getting a “yes” is great, of course. And getting a “no” is also a good thing. (The only outcome we want to avoid at all costs is the no-man's-land “think it over” answer.)There's a simple reason why getting a “no” is good: You never want to be pushing your prospects to tell you “yes” because it will ultimately lead to way more “think it overs.” If a prospect doesn't want to do business with you, then they're not going to.When you make “no” a viable option for prospects, they feel so much less pressure in the selling interaction. This is one of the few really powerful sales secrets that only the best salespeople know. Remember, “think it overs” are what you actually want to avoid. Getting a “no” is fine. Sales Secret #4: Don't serve. Help people make the right decision.Don't be a doormat. This shouldn't be one of the best-kept sales secrets out there, but unfortunately it is. Far too many salespeople are just glorified customer service reps who do whatever the prospect asks. That's not your job. Your job is not to serve your prospects.Your job is to serve your clients, sure—but your clients are those who are already doing business with you. Anyone who has not done business with you yet is not a client. They are prospects. And so, your goal is simply to help those people make the right decision.If a prospect is a good fit, they should ultimately be making the right decision (with your help), which is to work with you. If they are not the right fit, move on. That's it. Don't be a doormat.Sales Secret #5: Great salespeople aren't talkative.As far as sales secrets go, this might be one of the most surprising to you. We've all been bombarded by the myth that effective salespeople are chatty, friendly, super-talkative people. But in reality, the data shows that great salespeople aren't necessarily extroverts. In fact, most great salespeople fall right in the middle of the spectrum between extroverts and introverts.Great salespeople are great listeners. They're great at engaging people in conversations. They're great at disarming prospects and making them feel comfortable to share what's going on in their world. That's what a great salesperson does. It's not about telling funny jokes. It's simply about being able to effectively engage prospects in the types of conversations that you want to have.Sales Secret #6: Have a process. Don't make it up.I saved this for last on my list of top sales secrets, because it's so important. Very few salespeople have a formalized sales process in place. Let me ask you a question: Do you have a formalized sales process where you know exactly what to do at every single phase of the sale? Do you know every question you're going to ask? Do you know exactly what you're going to present to your prospects? And if so, is that process working to the degree that you want it to?The truth is, the vast majority of salespeople don't have a process in place at all. You must commit to having one. Don't make it up. Use a data-driven approach to more effectively engage prospects in conversation, and ultimately present your solution to the challenges they have mentioned.
