If you've ever struggled with leadership, building culture, or wondering if you're really making a difference, this episode is for you. It's not just a farewell. It's a roadmap.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I said this 10 years ago that 2025-2027 would usher in a new age.    If you're not paying attention, this is your notice........   Sales is going to be the biggest casualty in thte next 5 years due to the implementation of A.I.    Elon Musk appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast recently and Joe asked him the probability of robots taking over the human race.    Elon's response......."20% chance."    Think Terminator 2.    The Matrix.    That's what we're looking at.    The truth is it's probably going to be closer to 18 months.     There are self-driving cars (Waymo) in select cities that people can buy rides.  The Uber and Lyft drivers have been replaced if this works without a problem.    The evolution of robots is going to induce mass layoffs due to technological advances.    I'm currently working with Executives and CEOs about how to replace their current sales team with A.I.     The Facts Around Sales People:    Most sales people are right-brained.    They're. not analytical.    Consider what it costs to employ a sales person:    Payroll tax is around 8-13% YOu ahve to manage their W-2 incomes Provid health insurance  Matching 401K Sick days Unemployment Insubordination By the time the average company hires a sales person, they're looking around close to $130K+ in compensation.    The flip side is you might get 2 out of 8 productive hours froma. sales person.    Low productivity.   Time away to take care of kids, family vacations, etc.    So, it's no wonder the big corporations of the world are looking at Terminator 1000 to replace sales people.    It's here and it's closer than you think.    Right now, the big focus is to look at the trades.    Plumbing.  HVAC.  Home services contracting.     If you're willing to do the work, you will not starve.     You've got 18 months to figure it out.    Lean in and listen closely.    I'm watching out for you and your family here.    The future is here, and if you are not leveraging ChatGPT, Grok, Midjourney, and the suite of A.I. tools available to you, you're going to slip through the cracks.    It's up to you what you fill them with.    The work begins now.     About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.
