Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Discover the top books for personal trainers to read like Grit, How to win friends and influence people, How to Become A Successful Personal TRainer and many more.Reading might be the most underrated skill for personal trainers looking to elevate their careers above the 90% who quit within their first year. While most fitness professionals obsess over certification acronyms, the truly successful ones are quietly building their intellectual foundation through consistent, deliberate reading habits.The contrast is striking. Picture a potential client walking into a gym to meet two trainers: one scrolling social media, the other absorbed in a professional development book. Before a word is spoken, one has already established themselves as a dedicated professional. This single habit creates an immediate differentiation that clients intuitively recognize and respect.Starting a reading practice doesn't require massive time commitments. Begin with just 5-10 minutes of distraction-free reading daily, timing yourself to establish a baseline reading speed. Create the right environment by eliminating distractions – put your phone across the room, find a quiet space, and treat reading with the same discipline you bring to physical training. As with fitness, consistency produces remarkable results over time.The reading curriculum for elite trainers spans multiple disciplines. For mindset development, explore works like "Grit" by Angela Duckworth or "Can't Hurt Me" by David Goggins. Business acumen grows through texts like "Go For No" by Richard Fenton, which teaches the counterintuitive approach of pursuing rejection to calibrate value. Technical mastery comes through studying "Starting Strength," "Fat Loss Forever," and "The Science and Practice of Strength Training." For comprehensive development, aim to read 50+ books annually – a simple habit that places you among the intellectual elite in fitness.Transform your reading habit into Want to ask us a question?

Sales Presentation Skills That Get You To "Yes" Faster In this episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount talks to renowned sales experts Richard Fenton and Andrea Waltz about their “Go For No” approach to embracing rejection in sales. They discuss how the fear of “no” sabotages sales presentations and what salespeople can do to deliver more successful and engaging presentations that get them to “yes”. The fear of failure and rejection can sabotage sales presentations and affect performance. Embracing rejection and understanding its value can lead to more successful sales presentations. The "Go for No" strategy involves intentionally increasing failure rate and using each "no" as valuable data for growth. Preparation and structure are essential in delivering compelling sales presentations. Improvisation in sales presentations can come across as unprofessional or unprepared. Don't just show up and throw up. Storytelling is a powerful tool to engage the audience and connect with them on a deeper level. Sharing stories about overcoming challenges and how your solution helped can capture attention and emotions. Losing your place or stumbling over words during a presentation is common, but maintaining composure and smoothly continuing is key. Well-prepared presentations instill confidence in the salesperson and engage the audience more effectively. But it's important to bring passion and authenticity to sales presentations rather than striving for perfection. The Fear Of “No” Derails Sales Presentations In the dynamic world of sales, where each presentation is an opportunity to forge valuable connections and secure vital deals, a formidable adversary often lurks in the shadows—the fear of failure and rejection. It's a sentiment that frequently courses through the veins of salespeople, affecting their confidence and ultimately their performance. This fear, while entirely human, can become an insidious obstacle to delivering compelling sales presentations. But here's the paradox: it's precisely this fear, when understood and harnessed, that can catapult a salesperson from mediocrity to mastery. This podcast delves into the heart of this challenge, exploring why salespeople often grapple with the fear of rejection and failure, how it affects their ability to engage their audience, and most importantly, why embracing this fear can be a game-changer in the competitive world of sales. What Is “Go For No” All About? The concept of "Go for No" is about intentionally increasing your failure rate and intentionally hearing "no" more often. The idea behind this is that when you embrace rejection, it paves the way for more "yeses" to come. However, this doesn't mean that you should simply keep hearing "no" without making any improvements or using the feedback from those rejections. It's important to treat each "no" as valuable data for growth. For instance, you can set goals based on the number of "no" responses you aim to receive, and actively seek out opportunities to hear "no." Don't Show Up and Throw Up In the world of sales presentations, there's a phrase that often rings true: "Don't show up and throw up." It's a cautionary mantra that reminds salespeople of the importance of preparation and structure in their interactions with potential clients. Showing up unprepared, with no more than a vague idea of what to say, can lead to a meandering and unconvincing pitch. Instead, successful sales presentations require careful planning. Salespeople should have their notes ready to go, create a basic outline for the conversation, and prepare specific talking points. While improvisation might seem like a way to appear more "natural," it often results in coming across as unprofessional or unprepared. A well-prepared presentation not only instills confidence in the salesperson but also engages the audience more effectively. And the truth is, when people speak without preparation,

We also dive into the importance of setting "no" goals and how to implement the "Go For No" approach responsibly. Andrea shares stories of companies that have succeeded by embracing rejection and discusses the dynamics of co-authoring a book with her husband. Lastly, we talk about their latest book, "When They Say No: The Definitive Guide For Handling Rejection In Sales", and the impact of "bad yes" in the sales process. #salesconsultantpodcast #GoForNo #WhenTheySayNo #SalesTips #SalesSuccess #MindsetShift #SalesGoals #PodcastInterview #EmbraceRejection #NoMeansNextOpportunity #BusinessAdvice #SalesAdviceTime Stamps:[:23] One of the first things that stood out to me in the book was this line that reads: “The Salesperson never decides when the sale is over, the customer does.”, so I ask her to start there and explain what that means.[2:15] Andrea provides us with an overview of the book which essentially is a short fable about an ordinary/average salesperson who one day wakes up in a huge mansion belonging to a wildly successful version of himself 10 years in the future. The story centers around the exploration of how their roads diverged. He was on the average to mediocrity but someone this alternative version took another route and became massively successful. But how?! He can just figure out his future self got to the top and then figure out how to get back to where he left off in his normal life, then somehow he can prevent ending up with a less than ideal life.[4:03] We talk about how learning to not only embrace failure and “no” but to strive for it in a responsible manner is the path for all of us to create the future version of ourselves that we aspire to.[6:55] Andrea describes the difference between Explicit Rejection and Implicit Rejection. Explicit Rejection is direct (“No I do not want to meet with your”) while Implicit Rejection is indirect (lack of engagement on a social post)[8:26] We unpack the following quote: “Comfort zones are never static. They are always in a state of expansion or retraction.” [11:45] The best way to implement Go For Now is to set “No” goals. She reinforces the fact that all metrics around us are “Yes” goals. You can set no goals in general or even in a sales process. Even as authors of the book Go For No they also struggle with focusing on yes goals. [17:43] Going for no does not mean failing intentionally. Andrea talks about the “best effort” that's built into the concept. She also speaks to the difference between expecting a no and accepting a no.[19:53] We review some examples of greatness where they failed their way to success.[21:03] A story about a sales consultant from the book who gave a company some “no advice” and helped them operationalize some “no tactics” which led to the company not only increasing sales but saving it from going under.[23:43] Pikes Syndrome is explained. It's essentially a study that demonstrates how self limiting belief systems are created within our mind that prevent us from acquiring that which is actually within our reach.[25:30] She talks about how we make assumptions about what people are going to do or say to protect ourselves. I quote the book where they say, “the only way to desensitize a word is to use it and the only way to desensitize an action is to do it.”[27:13] When you're dealing with “maybes”, remove the pressure of telling you no by telling prospects it's ok to say no.

This week on the Leadership Podcast, Bradley interviews Richard Fenton and Andrea Walton. Richard and Andrea are the founders of Courage Crafters, Inc., and the authors of the best-selling book, Go for No! They speak internationally, teaching business, sales, and entrepreneurial audiences how to overcome their fear of rejection and achieve extraordinary sales success by hearing 'no' more often. In this episode, they address mindset issues around failure and receiving a “no.” Richard shared his experience of a closed sale that was more expensive than he was used to. He felt successful until his supervisor asked him when his client said “no.” Richard realized that he didn't ever get a no, and that he had left money on the table due to his mindset. This moment began Richard's journey to developing the philosophy of going for no. He and Andrea train people how to improve sales by overcoming their fear of failure. When you internalize failure, you will cripple yourself as a salesperson. Learn how to set “no” goals as you develop your sales skills in this episode!

Episode Summary: Today, we speak with Jody Underhill of Rapid Hire Pro, a digital marketing agency that focuses solely on recruiting for home service companies. Jody discusses the unique challenge of getting your ad seen, encouraging business owners to take care in making sure that the ad is visible across all relevant high-traffic platforms. As he explains, Rapid Hire Pro's nurture sequence offers a frictionless experience to job seekers who click on their ads, helping them reach the point where they can make the most informed decision possible. He goes on to talk about why it has become so difficult to hire technicians across the board lately. He addresses the efficacy of performance pay, the difference between recruiting and hiring, and what it means to provide a career versus a job. Jody also speaks on what causes employees to leave, and how you can fine-tune your business—especially when it comes to the pay, culture, life balance, and other benefits that you offer—in order to attract A-players to your company. Topics Discussed: 01:03 - An introduction to Jody and Rapid Hire Pro 07:42 - How Rapid Fire Pro seamlessly guides job seekers 15:49 - Why it is so difficult to hire technicians 17:47 - Performance pay done right 25:50 - Recruiting versus hiring 32:19 - Providing a career versus providing a job 33:20 - Why employees leave their company 36:33 - Why it is so difficult the hire from job boards 44:43 - The speed of the recruiting process 47:29 - What A-players typically look for in a company 52:02 - Compensation, insurance, benefits, etc. 53:24 - About the company's ridealong forms 54:52 - The most common mistakes employers make Sponsors: Skimmer Leslie's Primate Pool Tools Connect with Guest: Website Facebook YouTube LinkedIn Resources Mentioned Go For No Monday.com Connect with Pool Chasers: Website Instagram Facebook Facebook Group Twitter YouTube Patreon Key Quotes from Episode: We find that over 74% of job seekers are what are referred to as “passive job seekers”, meaning that they're not actively going on job boards. They're seeing a job as they're scrolling through social media. They didn't go looking for it. Simply making the request for a response changes how many people show up for an interview. As long as you're providing the best service and the best solution, you have an unlimited upside potential. Do not institute performance pay if you have not done sales training with your team. They need to understand how to sell these upgrades and how to do it in such a way that the clients or the customers feel that they're doing them a favor by sharing the solution with them. Recruiting is bringing the leads and qualifying them. Hiring is when you decide to give them an offer letter. Time kills deals and time kills candidates.
