Learn how he ended up becoming a client of the Genius Network and launching his own skincare business.

Finally, hear Kevin's take on taking risks, protecting your intellectual property, being authentic and open-book with people, leaving an impact in someone's life, having the courage to let go of what you know and try something new, writing your own script in life, and more.   Tune in now to learn from Kevin's incredible journey!   [00:00 - 11:57] Kevin Donahue's Incredible Journey Kevin Donahue is a former CEO, founder, and entrepreneur who considers himself a professional salesman. Kevin started his career in sales and advising, selling software technologies to the US government. Kevin's clients included the White House National Security Council, Homeland Security, the CIA, and more. Kevin was bored and in debt, despite having a successful career and business. He decided to move to Costa Rica to live out five of his life goals: surfing, getting closer to his faith, doing mission work in an impoverished nation, learning Spanish fluently, and immigrating to a foreign country.   [11:57 - 18:06] Authenticity and Gratitude: A Mindset that Brings Opportunities Kevin stressed the importance of authenticity and being present in all aspects of life, whether it's in business or personal relationships. Authenticity and openness are key elements in creating a positive impact and making someone feel great, which can make all the difference in the world. By spreading gratitude, love, and good feelings, and making a positive impact, one's journey through life will be better and one can leave a lasting legacy. Thin Air was a place where people came together to create new connections and build relationships, and it was a unique environment where anything could happen. Kevin now runs a company called Executive Sales Source, which involves sales consultations in various fields, from information products to celebrities, product launches, and technology. He has started about 20 businesses over the years, some of which were successful and others that were not, but he has learned from each experience and grown as a result.   [18:06 - 27:45] The Mentor Who Changed the Course of Kevin's Life and Business Kevin talks about Mark Schneider, a successful entrepreneur who had a profound impact on life and business Mark taught Kevin that taking risks is about the journey and the lessons you learn along the way. Mark taught Kevin the importance of demonstrating the value of his product and went out to show people how it worked. Despite his wealth, he didn't flaunt it or let it define him. Despite not seeking fame, Mark was still incredibly influential and well-respected.    [27:45 - 30:16] Closing Statements Follow Kevin on LinkedIn or Instagram and check out his website at https://www.executivesalessource.com/ Final words   Thanks for tuning in!    If you liked my show, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, and subscribe!    Find me on the following streaming platforms: Apple Spotify Google Podcasts IHeart Radio Stitcher     Tweetable Quotes   "Have the courage to let go of what you know and try something new and see if you can live a thousand lifetimes in one.” – Kevin Donahue

Ep. 97 Kevin Donahue: Master Salesman talks Painting a Brighter Future, Neuro Performance Academy, and Surf and Serve When it comes to sales, there are few people in the world more qualified to talk on that topic than Kevin Donahue.  At an early age he was inspired by his grandfather's entrepreneurial pursuits to take on a life of generating wealth by creating value. As a child Kevin started with paper routes and direct response marketing and since then, he's has never looked back.  After achieving what most would consider to be MASSIVE success in sales of construction equipment and technology, he found himself standing in his penthouse apartment looking out across Washington D.C. In that moment, he had a realization. Something significant was missing from his life. There was so much more he wanted to do and he wanted every moment to be infused with deep purpose and meaning. That pivotal moment in his life helped guide him to where he is now.  Today, Kevin works as a sales consultant through his work with his company Executive Sales Source and is also deeply involved in cutting edge human optimization research with his work with Neuro Performance Academy. Additionally, he runs a charity benefitting individuals in need in Panama which combines two of his favorite things. It is aptly named, Surf and Serve.  In today's episode Kevin will discuss:  Why you should STOP SELLING His definition of selling and how to use it to have people clamoring for your products and services Why you should leave people, "haunted with indecision" in a sales conversation The definition of "WIIFM" and why it is crucial to your business and life "Give Up" vs. "Go Up" Goals How doctors are unlocking human potential using Neuroplasticity And so much more!    To learn more about Kevin check out the links below:  Executive Sales Source Surf and Serve Neuro Performance Academy   Book Recommendation:  So Good They Can't Ignore You by Cal Newport   OVERCOMING GRADUATION SHOW NOTES:  To book your free one hour Clarity Session to: Gain a crystal-clear understanding of what are your life’s passions and find out what actions to take TODAY to start making your dreams reality, FASTER than you ever thought possible Uncover hidden challenges / mindsets that are sabotaging your success Gain a new understanding on life to leave each session feeling renewed, energized, and inspired to take on life’s biggest challenges TODAY Click the link below!
