Sales and leadership expert Peter Turley, known for his refreshingly honest, no-fluff approach to winning business. After years of witnessing average sales behaviors and predictable negotiation tactics, Peter joins us on the show to share his unique perspective on what truly sets top performers apart: positioning yourself as the authority even before a negotiation begins. In this eye-opening episode, you'll hear Peter outline the distinct roles of strategy and tactics, reveal his powerful "quantification" approach for reframing the sales conversation, and demonstrate how inviting your buyer into the process can flip the entire negotiation dynamic in your favor. With stories, humor, and actionable advice, this episode is packed with insights that could transform your sales game! Outline of This Episode [00:00] Practical, no-nonsense sales strategies for effective results. [03:54] Being the authority puts you in a very strong negotiating position. [06:22] Using humor to move the relationship forward. [09:47] How to quantify your customer. [13:59] Leverage your customer's imagination for effective selling. Strategy vs. Tactics: Knowing What Comes First Tactics are what you do at the end, in the heat of the negotiation. Strategy is what you do before the negotiation starts, in Peter's experience. This sets the stage for a critical realization—well before conversation starts or prices are exchanged, the groundwork for negotiation success is laid. Strategy is about positioning, credibility, and how the other side perceives you as you enter the negotiation. Tactics, in contrast, are the maneuvers and phrasing used in the moment. The most successful negotiators invest early in strategic positioning, dramatically influencing their leverage once tactical discussions begin. Average, Expert, or Authority? Peter identifies three levels of professional perception: average, expert, and authority. Most salespeople operate at the “average” level, where they are easily compared on price and routinely undercut by competitors. Moving up the value chain, “experts” are those with proven knowledge, but even they are not immune to comparison. The gold standard, according to Peter, is becoming an “authority”—the definitive reference point whose insights reshape perspectives. “The experts need somebody to go to when they get stuck. The all-seeing eye. That person is called the authority”. Authorities command higher pricing not by accident, but because industry recognition, conference presence, and demonstrated originality remove them from price-based comparisons. When negotiating, authorities are rarely pressured to justify value; they become the benchmark others aspire to. Confidence, Charm, and the Power of No Peter's unique approach blends humor and boldness. Faced with a client pressing for lower pricing, he famously produced a competitor's business card and offered it as an alternative, positioning himself as above price haggling. This approach works, he emphasizes, only because of the deep groundwork laid over the years—authority, trust, and a portfolio of results. Confidence in your value, combined with social intelligence, diffuses price objections and reframes negotiations around value. Quantification in Sales Moving beyond qualifying questions, quantification walks the client through the tangible, mathematical impact that a product or service could have on their business. By leading the customer to calculate and imagine the results—dollars added, profits multiplied—the discussion pivots from cost to potential gain. What's remarkable is how this approach shifts the negotiation dynamic. Instead of the salesperson battling for budget, the customer is internally motivated to find extra funds, sell the solution upward, and justify the value to themselves and others. Value dwarfs cost, and the negotiation shifts to, “How can we make this happen?” The Transformational Impact of Value-Based Negotiation What Peter demonstrates is both simple and profound: negotiation success starts far before any price is discussed. By positioning yourself as an authority and leading the client to quantify what's really at stake, you turn negotiations from adversarial price haggling to value creation partnerships.

Discovering what factory farming actually looks like after a childhood surrounded by relatively idyllic rural farming. Realising too late that you shouldn't have clicked on that video of someone experiencing a cluster headache. Or, more unexpectedly, having a baby. One of 10^20 Birth Stories This Year With my relaxed and glowing pregnant wife in her 34th week, I expect things to go smoothly. There have been a few warning signs: some slightly anomalous results in the early tests, the baby in breech position, and some bleeding. But everything still seems to be going relatively well. Then, suddenly, while walking on an idyllic French seafront, she says: "I think my waters have broken". "Really?

How to prevent infighting, mitigate status races, and keep your people focused. Cross-posted from my Substack. Organizational culture changes rapidly at scale. When you add new people to an org, they'll bring in their own priors about how to operate, how to communicate, and what sort of behavior is looked-up to.

We all have some worries, those everyday anxieties that creep into our lives—money, kids, jobs, and adding more stress to your life in the form of an investment portfolio can seem like too much at times. So this week, I'm sharing how understanding one key financial theory can transform your approach to investing and seriously lower your stress. This episode takes you through the groundbreaking work of Eugene Fama and the efficient market hypothesis, explaining why trying to outguess the market is usually a losing game. I'm also sharing how, by trusting the power of the market and building your strategy around solid, evidence-based principles, you can ditch investing anxiety and set your family up for long-term success. So if market swings keep you up at night or you're looking for a more peaceful way to manage your portfolio, tune in for a fresh perspective and actionable advice on taking the stress out of investing—once and for all. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Your foundation of knowledge to experience stress-free investing. [05:58] Understanding Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH). [09:40] The power of market consensus. [11:55] How fast does the stock market react? [13:12] Efficient market hypothesis simplified. [17:27] The myth of market-beating funds. [19:22] Reduce investment stress by demystifying the market. Does Investing Have to Be One More Worry? Retirement account fluctuations, big market drops like those in 2008, COVID-19, and trade war-related selloffs are enough to send anyone's blood pressure soaring. One of the most important concepts in modern finance: the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), developed by Nobel laureate Eugene Fama. In simple terms, the EMH says that all the available information about any publicly traded company is already reflected in its stock price. Let's use Apple as an example. Every day, millions of shares, worth billions of dollars, change hands, each trade representing someone who thinks Apple is fairly priced, and someone else who disagrees. Crucially, both buyers and sellers have access to the same information. No one has a crystal ball; everyone's predictions about future sales and profits are just that—educated guesses. Why Beating the Market Is So Hard In a 20-year analysis of actively managed mutual funds, those run by managers trying to beat the market through skillful stock picking. Of the 1,667 funds analyzed on January 1, 2004, just 48% were still around 20 years later (the rest closed or merged after poor performance). Of those survivors, only 16% managed to outperform the market—a sliver of winners, and no guarantee that their outperformance was due to skill rather than luck. Over longer periods, the odds get even worse. The market's efficiency means that news, good or bad, gets priced in fast. By the time you read about a hot tip or see a magazine

On the show this week, Dr. Christopher Meyer, author of "Settle for More" and one of the Global Guru's Top 30 Thought Leaders in Negotiation for 2025, shares his expertise on the critical differences between negotiation strategy and tactics, and why a strong planning mindset is key to successful deals. Chris breaks down his unique approach to negotiation—shifting from a traditional "win-win" mindset to focusing on how everyone at the table can truly gain. He shares his favorite negotiation tactics, the importance of preparation, and how to handle those infamous hardball negotiation techniques from buyers. Additionally, Chris provides us with valuable dos and don'ts for negotiators and offers a memorable real-world example from his own high-stakes experience in the tech sector. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Consider long-term strategy and adapt tactics to each negotiation based on your relationship. [04:22] Adopt a gain-focused mindset in negotiation for mutual benefits. [07:08] Spend 80% of your time on planning to ensure smooth negotiations. [10:12] Focus on building relationships and value, not just achieving quotas. [13:22] Mutually beneficial relationships require both parties to gain. [17:29] The breakthrough moment shifted Chris's approach from adversarial to collaborative. Beyond Win-Win—Negotiation with a Mindset for Gain Negotiation lies at the heart of successful sales, but too often it conjures images of hard-nosed tactics, adversarial posturing, and zero-sum outcomes. One of Chris's most compelling messages is about the mindset underpinning successful negotiation. Instead of getting stuck in old “win-lose” or even “win-win” mentalities, he encourages negotiators to focus on mutual gain so that everyone in the room can gain. Negotiation, at its core, should be about finding ways for all parties to walk away recognizing value, making the process constructive, not combative. This sets the stage for strong, lasting business relationships. When both sides gain, collaboration and repeat business become far more likely. Favorite Tactics: Trade Offs, Value Creation, and Contingencies With the right mindset in place, tactical execution becomes nuanced and effective. Chris shares his three preferred tactics: Trade-Offs: Look for opportunities to give the other party a gain in exchange for something valuable in return. Value Creation: Identify and offer unique, specific benefits in the negotiation that can enhance the outcome for all. Contingencies: Structure deals so that additional benefits are provided if the counterpart reciprocates—making negotiations dynamic and adaptable. These approaches move beyond bargaining chips and price discussions; they're about co-creating solutions that satisfy both parties' core interests. Planning is the Unsung Hero of Negotiation A recurring theme in the podcast is the overwhelming importance of planning. Chris advocates for an “80/20 rule,” encouraging negotiators to spend 80% of their time preparing and only 20% executing. Deep preparation isn't just about knowing your own needs, but also anticipating the objectives and potential moves of your counterpart. Thorough planning means you're never blindsided by tough questions or aggressive tactics, and you're positioned to create and communicate value confidently. When it comes to those famously tricky buyer tactics—take-it-or-leave-it offers, extreme anchoring, and last-minute demands, Chris' advice is twofold: first, be prepared (so you spot them coming), and second, show grace. Rather than meet aggression with aggression, view these moves as products of outdated training and use the opportunity to steer negotiations toward collaborative problem-solving. Chris' Do's and Don'ts for Better Negotiations Chris offers a succinct checklist for sales professionals: Do: Ask Questions & Be Curious: Seek to understand before seeking to be understood Develop Value: Bring as much as you can to the table Ensure All Parties Benefit: Winning together encourages long-term success. Don't: Don't Lie: Honesty fuels trust Don't Obfuscate: Clear communication prevents misunderstandings Don't Threaten: Ultimatums close minds and kill creativity When both sides are focused on gain—and negotiators put in the work to prepare, ask, and listen—outcomes exceed expectations. For anyone in sales, the path forward is clear: trade old mindsets for a commitment to curiosity, collaboration, and planning, and you'll champion not just your own success, but the reputation of the entire profession.

John talks about Trump's horrific economic skills including his pathetic DOGE cost saving cuts, the gutting of migrant service and farm workers, and his knee jerk tariff maneuvers. Then, he interviews Councilwoman Phylicia Porter who is a public health advocate focused on building healthy communities in Baltimore City and South Baltimore. As a longtime and active resident of Baltimore City's 10th District, Phylicia approaches community advocacy with an independent voice of sincere leadership, honesty, and integrity. Phylicia prides herself on believing there is nothing more rewarding than empowering individuals and communities to use their political voices for change. Next, John welcomes back democratic political strategist Max Burns and they chat about his new opinion piece in The Hill called "It's Pritzker's Party: Hell Yes, He's Messing with Texas, and He's Not Sorry". And then finally, John jokes with TV's Frank Conniff and they take calls from listeners about the latest news and pop culture.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
