In this episode of The Lindsey Anderson Show, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Nick Loise, the founder of the Sales Performance Team, to talk about the powerful connection between sales and marketing, especially for entrepreneurs looking to scale their businesses. Nick's incredible background includes roles as an author, speaker, adjunct professor, and a key contributor to GKIC and Magnetic Marketing. In this episode, we dive into direct response marketing, building sales teams, and creating systems that drive long-term success in business.Guest IntroductionNicholas Loise is a highly successful sales leader, entrepreneur, marketing and sales executive, Presidents Club winner and speaker. He is the founder of the Sales Performance Team, and he's passionate about helping businesses build high-impact sales teams that get results. He's an author and co-author of several essential books for marketers and sales professionals, including contributions to No B.S. Guide to Direct Response Marketing. Nick developed programs like Sales Mastery and played a pivotal role in shaping Magnetic Marketing. With eight years at GKIC working alongside Dan Kennedy, Nick has become a true expert in helping businesses scale through proven strategies.Building High-Impact Sales Teams - Key TakeawaysNick emphasizes that if you're serious about scaling your business, you need to hire two salespeople—not just one—to reduce risk and set your team up for success.The online coaching and consulting industry saw massive growth during the pandemic, but the influx of bad actors has created trust issues that must now be addressed.Repeatable systems and processes are essential to ensuring your salespeople thrive, even if they're not naturally great at sales.Today's buyers demand more proof and authenticity. Refresh your testimonials, focus on case studies, and make sure your messaging is aligned with modern expectations.Expanding your marketing beyond Facebook and Instagram is critical. Platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and LinkedIn offer untapped opportunities for entrepreneurs.Finding the Right SalespeopleNick shared strategies for recruiting top talent, including using platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, and Glassdoor. He also recommended high-ticket closer recruiters like Zach Brown and Robert Posey.Look beyond traditional recruiting—great sales talent can often be found in customer service roles at restaurants, hotels, or valet services.Your job postings should work like your marketing: they must attract the right candidates and repel those who aren't a fit.Proper onboarding and clear expectations are critical for giving your sales hires the tools they need to succeed.The Pandemic's Impact on the Info SpaceThe pandemic sparked an unprecedented boom in online coaching and info products, with people turning to digital learning for new skills and career changes.Unfortunately, this growth also brought “bro marketers” and bad actors into the space, leading to increased scrutiny from payment processors like Stripe.Sales processes have lengthened as buyers are more cautious, making trust-building and authenticity more important than ever.Building Trust in Today's MarketRegularly update your testimonials and case studies to stay relevant and showcase your expertise in transformational coaching.A strong onboarding process can dramatically reduce churn and ensure your clients feel supported.Video content on platforms like YouTube and TikTok offers an authentic way to connect with your audience and build credibility.Exceptional customer service is a must. Being proactive about resolving issues can prevent chargebacks and retain clients.Expanding Marketing...

Discover the keys to becoming a sales and leadership powerhouse as Jeff Fallis of GoFormz joins us for a riveting journey through his career, from humble beginnings to the pinnacle of sales success. Learn how mentorship, a strong work ethic, and the wisdom to carve your unique career path can accelerate your ascent in any industry. Jeff's remarkable story starts with selling hockey tickets in Arizona and evolves into spearheading the digital transformation for companies across construction and field service sectors, embodying the universal applicability of sales skills. Step into the arena where sports and business strategies converge, offering a masterclass in leadership. In this episode, Jeff and I unpack the nuances of guiding a team through the highs and lows, setting the stage for a winning mentality. We tackle the tough aspects of leadership, from the personal growth that comes with transitioning from individual contributor to a leader, to handling the complexities of delivering difficult news during a crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing inspiration from sports legends, we delve into the importance of resilience, role definition, and learning from failure to create a successful business playbook. Cementing customer relationships and achieving lasting success hinges on the synergy between sales and customer success – a theme we explore with depth and insight. Jeff shares his philosophy that the sales relationship doesn't end at closing; it's only the beginning of an ongoing partnership that can make or break client retention. We reveal the strategies for setting clear expectations, the crucial first three months post-sale, and the benefit of a cohesive team-selling approach. New team members have embraced this philosophy, which keeps salespeople actively involved and supportive, solidifying the foundations of customer relations long after the initial handshake. Jeff Fallis is the currently the Sr. Director, Head of Sales and Customer Success at GoFormz, a San Diego based company focused on enterprise software for digital forms and data capture. His career spans over 17 years in sales and technology, having held positions as an individual contributor all the way to Executive leadership. As the Vice President of Sales at Blast Motion for 5 years, another San Diego based startup, he helped lead the company's transition from early-stage sales to multi-millions in business. As the VP of Digital Media Sales at Pointstreak Sports Technologies, he was a member of the Executive team which successfully executed the sale of the company in early 2016. Prior to joining Pointstreak, he held the position of Director, Digital Media Sales at The Active Network, which filed an IPO in May of 2011 and was a 4x Presidents Club award winner. Throughout his career, Fallis has consistently built strong sales teams and effective strategic GTM plans in the technology sector. Fallis holds a degree from the University of Dayton (Dayton, Ohio), where he was an NCAA Student Athlete, Honorable Mention All-American and 3 year starter on the Football team. He also holds a Master's degree in Sports Business Management from The University of Tennessee, where he was a graduate assistant in the Athletic Department for 2 years before moving on to start his career in business. Mr. Fallis was born in Akron, Ohio and resides in Carlsbad, California with his wife Breana and their two children, Stella 3, and Clay 2. Quotes: "In sales, the game never pauses. The ability to stay focused and disciplined underpins success in any competitive field." "Mentorship has played a critical role in my journey. I've been fortunate to have strong mentors who have helped shape my career and leadership style." "Sales is not just about closing a deal; it's about initiating a relationship that you continually nurture for long-term success." "Adaptability and learning that you don't know everything are key lessons that I've carried from my early career roles to today."

Starting a recruitment agency is hard. Being a great recruiter is no guarantee you'll be a successful business owner. There are thousands of competent, hard working recruiters who struggle when they go out on their own. That's why my next guest, Mike Williams, is so remarkable. In his first 12 months, he billed $900,000. He's now up to $1,200,000 since he started the business 15 months ago. Mike is the founder and President of Carnegie Partners, based in Charlotte, North Carolina. He's a manufacturing and engineering recruitment specialist. I'm honored to count Mike among our clients here at Recruitment Coach. You'll enjoy hearing Mike's journey because he reveals some of the secrets to his success while being honest about the moments of self-doubt that we can all relate to. One of the things Mike has mastered is creating original content on LinkedIn as a key part of his business development strategy. In this interview, Mike shares how to generate content ideas and posts consistently on LinkedIn. Plus we discuss the importance of posting videos to engage with your target audience. Mike has an impressive track record as a top producer. In his first 5 years in agency recruitment, he won "Perm Rookie of the Year" plus President's Club 5 years in a row. He then founded Carnegie Search in February 2022. Episode Outline and Highlights [01:15] How Mike got into recruiting and started his own business. [06:30] Why recruitment leaders must create a defined career path for their team members. [08:35] Mike's thoughts on how to retain your top recruiters. [11:37] From top recruiter to successful recruitment entrepreneur: two key success factors in hitting the ground running. [16:06] Building relationships by meeting clients in person and visiting manufacturing companies. [25:22] How digital marketing, social media, and LinkedIn played a critical role in Mike's success. [28:33] Mike shares his LinkedIn strategy - how it helped him win business and the barriers he had to overcome. [35:35] How to overcome fear when posting content online. [41:24] How to generate ideas and create content consistently. [49:05] Why you should consider posting videos on Linkedin. [51:18] Mike revealed the roadblocks he encountered and his big learnings to date. Hitting the Ground Running - Making a Successful Transition from a Recruiter to a Recruitment Business Owner How was Mike able to hit the ground running so fast in his transition from a top recruiter to a recruitment business owner? “I think the biggest thing was a little more strategic, which was the niche that we defined … and the geographical area where I decided to do it.” Mike's approach was very analytical, studying the industry trends and looking at the cities with the highest growth. This research even influenced where they decided to live. He explained, “I knew that I liked working locally and meeting the companies and the candidates in person because I felt like it gave just a leg up on the rapport and relationship building.” I think this was a smart move. When I was a recruiter running a desk, we always insisted on visiting our clients in person. Aside from building rapport, as Mike also mentioned, meeting up with clients is a “good litmus test of how serious they are about working with you.” Posting on LinkedIn to Build Your Brand and Develop New Business Mike is good at cold calling and routinely makes cold calls to both clients and candidates. However, he also leverages LinkedIn as a key component of his business development strategy. Mike is a firm believer that you can win clients through LinkedIn. You will hear an amazing story about how Mike received an inbound enquiry from a VP of HR at a billion-dollar company because of a story he posted on LinkedIn. That senior executive became a client and gave Mike a lot of repeat business, which might never have happened without that LinkedIn post. Mike also shared how consistent posting helps build a “continued relationship” with potential leads that you may have a cold called before. Here are things that you will find insightful in this section of the episode: Why consistent posting can win your clients in the long run. Overcoming fear and imposter syndrome when posting LinkedIn content. How to generate ideas for your LinkedIn content. Why You Need to Post Videos on LinkedIn What I also admire about Mike's LinkedIn strategy is how he is not shying away from posting videos. What is his thought process in creating video content? He shared two things: There are “certain topics that don't lend themselves all that well to just text form” and can be best shared with a video. Building digital rapport. Mike puts it this way, “Well, I want to get people to get to know me. So if you want to get people to get to know you, do you think that they're gonna get to know you and feel like they know you better from something that you write or from seeing you talk and looking at you visually? Obviously, visually is better.” When was the last time that you created and posted a video on LinkedIn? If you want differentiation, increased engagement, and to demonstrate expertise, posting a video is something you can start. In our coaching group, sharing ideas and best practices for posting video content is a recurring discussion topic.

TITLE Sales Expert Offers Insight on Best Practices for Sales SuccessSUMMARY Cary tells the story of her 25 year sales career, starting with quotas in the range of $1 million. She talks about her biggest deals, including one for $125 million, and how her experience has taught her the importance of developing a good sales team.Cary Simpson is a sales leader with over 25 years of experience in the industry. She has generated tens of millions of dollars in revenue for her organizations as an individual contributor, and her teams have generated hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue. She has led teams of sales reps with quotas ranging from $16 million to $125 million. Throughout her career, she has had many team members qualify for Presidents Club and other national awards.In the conversation, the speaker discusses their experience transitioning from being an individual contributor to a sales leader. They talk about how they knew they were good at selling, and how they had to learn to trust their team and delegate tasks. They also discuss how they believe that anyone can be a sales leader if they have the right mindset.TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 Cascading Leadership: A Conversation with a Sales Expert0:02:28 Sales Effectiveness Master Class with Carrie0:04:03 The conversation is between two sales leaders discussing their experience.Sales Leaders' Conversation on Revenue Generation and Team Development0:07:23 The Transition from Individual Contributor to Sales Leader: A Conversation with Heavy Hitter Sales Producer, Cary Simpson 0:09:06 Leadership Development: The Importance of Hitting 10,000 Hours0:10:47 The Importance of Hiring for Relationship-Building in Sales0:14:46 The Importance of Customer Centric Selling0:17:47 The Different Types of Buyers in a Complex Enterprise Sale0:20:40 The Complexity of the Sales ProcessHIGHLIGHTS So customer centric relationship based selling is important but you cannot always have a good relationship with customers. You are going to run across customers that you just flat out don't like.We're going to focus this conversations in the area of customer centric selling and also navigating the complex deal cycle and stakeholder landscape and shepherding a deal along. You said that you're trying to identify people that have a relationship first focus, and I'm paraphrasing long-term thinking as one of the key criteria for sales success.And when people talk about building business and building long term relationships as opposed to getting the most revenue as fast as humanly possible or driving revenue, that's sales. Right? But how do you do that?.I'm interested in people who can connect the dots, who can ask a series of questions of customers that will relate the technical specifications and the value of the product to the everyday workflow of the customer, right?.Let's just assume that whoever is in a hiring position within sales are looking for profiles that align with the requirements of the job. So whatever those requirements are, a candidate is close enough to warrant a conversation.Music Credit: Maarten Schellekens - RivieraFollow us at: www.cascadingleadership.comlinkedin.com/in/drjimklinkedin.com/in/1lawrenceobrown

He is a lifetime honoree in "Who's Who in Business” and has won multiple Outstanding Achievement and Presidents Club awards, as well as acting as one of a small group of trainers worldwide with the Anthony Robbins companies, traveling the globe and helping people maximize their potential both personally and professionally. Ken joins Nick to discuss personal leadership and mindset required, and what it really takes to be a successful, impactful leader. KEY TAKEAWAYS Effective scale can only be enacted to the level of your identity. This requires a full understanding of yourself and what lights you up. The search for self-fulfilment isn't always a clear one. Sometimes we are guided by the fact that answers are out there somewhere. Consistency is very powerful.

Meet Today's Guest: Jen Coffel Jen Coffel is CEO of Engaging Speakers, a successful business coach, a best-selling author with four books, and a philanthropist. She has been featured on Inc.com, ABC News, and the Chicago Tribune. Jen has been mentored by speaking icons like Jack Canfield, Nick Vujicic, and Sandra Yancey, and has spoken on stage to over 10,000 people. With two decades of business experience, Jen built her first 4 businesses to 6 figures each, all in under a year and all in different industries. She has now helped over a thousand entrepreneurs build their businesses with many reaching 6-figure and 7-figure revenue. In her previous career, she developed the largest team in Illinois for a billion-dollar direct sales company, personally generating over $25 million in sales and raising over $1 million in donations for non-profits. But she is most proud of founding her own international non-profit “Handing Hope” which brings comfort and smiles to children battling cancer in twelve states and three countries around the world. Share with our audience a little bit about who you are. It's been a fun 20-year journey in being an entrepreneur. And I know that there's a lot to share as far as l the backstory but, I started out actually, my background is, I'm an occupational therapist, by degree. My first business was teaching people with disabilities how to drive. And so I started a private practice back in 1999. But it was a really awesome business because I got to do what I love to do, which is to give people freedom. I tried for six years to have kids. And so once we finally had kids, I really wanted to be home with them. So I sold my business. And I thought that what I sold it for would be enough money to get me through the time. While my first baby, she was adopted, and after like five months into having her we got pregnant with twins through IVF. And then the next year we got pregnant by surprise. All these children came and you know, adoption is expensive, IVF is expensive, kids are expensive. So I went through all the money that I had sold the practice for and was broke. I realized if I didn't do something, to be able to get us out of that financial situation, we were just going to be sunk because my husband was also an occupational therapist, and he didn't get any bonuses or things like that. So I had to find a way and I didn't want to go back to working at a business outside of the house. So I started a network marketing business. In that business, I really discovered my love for teaching people about business. I treated my network marketing business as a traditional business in terms of picking a target market really having marketing strategies and focusing on sharing it with friends and family and that sort of thing. I had a lot of success with that business I built it to the largest in the state of Illinois and won their Presidents Club trips multiple times and had a lot of fun with it. In that process, I discovered my love for teaching women how to build businesses and so that led me to start a coaching business and teaching business coaching. I built four businesses at six figures in less than 12 months, all in different industries. And there was a methodology that one of my coaches brought up to me like you have to be using some methodology like to do that. I was able to, with time, really take a reflected look at what am I doing. How am I doing that and then get it out in a way that I could actually teach it and so since then I've taught it to so many people and the results have been amazing. Please share your story about the first time you spoke, and then now, what you're able to do when you get in front of an audience, that is just an incredible journey. So why don't you share with the audience a little bit about how that first experience was? In my first experiences with speaking, I remember just front row looking at specifically one man because he started snoring. And he was in the front row, and I'm sharing and speaking and he's falling asleep. But I remember thinking at that moment I have a lot to learn about this speaking thing. I started learning more about how to do speaking, but it's funny when I look back at where I started, and now running an organization is teaching other entrepreneurs how to use speaking and using that so much in my businesses. When I look back at all the businesses that I've had such growth with, it's really speaking has been the primary strategy, and all of them, that has resulted in the growth that I've experienced and the success I've had. And so I believe it's the best-leveraged marketing strategy that we could use to grow our business. And I highly recommend it to everybody. There's so much more to speaking than getting paid on the front end, it's getting paid on the back end and just giving people a free something or other so then that you can help them and then that could lead to more business. So share about that whole process. It is a really powerful process. And it's different like what you're talking about is a keynote. And you get paid to speak. It's like a company will hire you to come in and do a keynote and pay you for that. I would say the average that somebody that's really out there as a professional speaker, they're making probably 5 to 10 thousand dollars, on average. Of course, there are lots of people that make way more than that. But I would say when you look at the bell curve what can you expect. But then when you look at the way that you can use speaking to grow a business if you have a strategically designed signature talk, which is what I call a signature talk that's really designed around your core business that highlights your expertise in a classy way and attracts your ideal clients. It really does become a revenue-generating machine. And so if that's something that interests you, the first step, to really being able to do that would be to know what your core genius is. And the reason that's important is because you really want to build your business, your core business around your core genius. Your core profits should be really focused on what you're good at. When I say core genius, what I mean by that is whatever your job is. If things are feeling really hard, if your business is feeling really hard if you're wanting to go into the speaking, and that's feeling really hard, it's probably foundationally, that element is missing. You're not super connected to what your core genius is because everything isn't quite working well. There is a lot to sequencing and understanding what is needed to build a successful business around your core genius, what your core businesses. I'm not saying that you don't need support in that, because I would highly recommend that because it's a lot faster path. That's the first place I would be asking myself, do I really know what my core genius is? Is that clear to me? And if not, I would start there. If you're interested in speaking or just building your business in general, I would really encourage any listener to start, like looking at that. Where does one go to get into the speaking world? We talked about core genius and getting your core message and like what is it that you know, what problems do you solve? What results do you bring that's really kind of all wrapped up in your 30-second introduction, which is, I think it's harder to speak for 30 seconds than it is for 30 minutes. You really want to get your core message clear and know the headaches that you solve and the results that you bring in. And that is the first step. The next step is learning that framework of how do I then take that and put it into a talk? How is it different than a keynote? I know there's a tendency to want to be very informational. Like when we are going to go out and speak about our service, or our product or our business, we want to like get into a lot of processes. I always encourage people not to focus on it. Yes, you can be educational, but do that inside a story because stories inspire. And stories are what connect emotionally to people. So if you're going to go out and start speaking, you want to learn how to tell a story because your signature talk should be like 50% of it. So learning how to tell a story, you need to have a character, you might be the character, or when you're doing your signature talk, and you're maybe making one of your powerful principal points, it could be a client story. That's what I recommend using because that's what's going to highlight your expertise in a classy way. That way, you're not promoting yourself, but the listeners being inspired by your expertise by hearing the story of how you've transformed a client's life. Jen's 6 stages of sharing a story Stage 1 – Set the stage. Think about what you want when somebody is hearing you tell the story to be able to envision what it was like, what was normal? And what were things like? Stage 2 – What changed? Everything was normal. And then something occurred. And what was it that occurred, what changed? Stage 3 – What caused the change? What was the trigger that caused that change? Stage 4 – Fight the dragon. That's where the struggle occurs. That's a really interesting part of the story. Stage 5 - Who did you have to become, who did the character have to become as a result of the fight, the challenge. Stage 6 - What's the new normal? That's what you want to take people on in terms of a journey, of a story, and learning how to tell your personal story in that way. Jen's story framework #1 – Working title. This is the overall umbrella results that you bring. #2 – Identify your origin story, personal story. #3 – Share who your talk is for. This talk is for you if…whatever the struggles are the headaches that you solve. #4 – What are they're going to learn in your talk. What are the results that they're going to receive. #5 - Share three powerful principles. Each of those principles is things that your ideal client would need to know, believe, do, or have, in order to get the ultimate result that you bring. #6 - Do a review of your points. #7 - Make an offer or a gift for everybody in the room, that would be potentially an ideal client now or in the future. #8 – End with an offer to have a session with you. Give a limited number. Don't say how long it is. Call it a session. Name a session which is tied to the result that you bring. #9 – Close. Closing story or a quote or something. Jen's Free Gift: I have devoured a book by Jack Canfield, “The Success Principles”. There are 67 principles in his book. I have identified 17 principles out of the 67 that I feel have been the foundational principles that have helped me to be successful in the businesses that I've had. I recorded a video for each one of those principles and have application questions and a digital workbook.
