"Problems are facts, pain is feeling." This mantra is tattooed on my brain for a reason.I recently reviewed a sales call where a service provider uncovered a complete train wreck of a client situation. The prospect agreed with every single finding, yet still refused to pay to fix it. Why? Because the seller was pitching problems, not pain.In this episode, I explain why clients can acknowledge a problem but still refuse to solve it. I'll show you how to connect the dots between technical facts and the emotional or business impact that actually drives a purchase. If you're presenting logical solutions but still losing deals, this is exactly what you need to hear.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

Prospect-ranking season has begun at MLB Pipeline, and Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff are all over it on this week's episode of the MLB Pipeline Podcast. Things have kicked off with the top 10 right-handed and left-handed pitchers lists, with Jim and Jonathan talking about which arms intrigue them most (RHP: Jonah Tong and Seth Hernandez; LHP: Liam Doyle and Cam Caminiti) as well as who might be next up to jump onto those lists in the future. The guys then jumped into the time machine to talk about Dansby Swanson and Alex Bregman as prospects now that they are about to pull off the rare feat of the top two players in a Draft playing for the same team. From there, they dug into the last two parts of the Executives Survey looking at top tools and farm systems, broke down the Edward Cabrera for Owen Caissie (and other prospects) trade and finished off with a question from the Mailbag.

Carole O'Neill's guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Shelley Blanton-Stroud, author of the book An Unlikely Prospect. Shelley grew up in California's Central Valley, the daughter of Dust Bowl immigrants who made good on their ambition to get out of the field. Recently retired from teaching writing at Sacramento State University, she serves as President of the Board of 916 Ink, an arts-based creative writing nonprofit for children, and serves on the Board of Advisors for the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies at Claremont McKenna College. She also interviews mystery and thriller authors for the Mystery Review Crew. Shelley is the author of the critically acclaimed Jane Benjamin Mystery series, which includes Copy Boy, Tomboy, and Poster Girl. Her writing has been a finalist in the Sarton Book Awards, IBPA Benjamin Franklin Awards, Killer Nashville's Silver Falchion Award, the American Fiction Awards, and the National Indie Excellence Awards. She and her husband live in Sacramento, surrounded by photos of their out-of-town sons, their wonderful partners, very first grandchild, and a lifetime of beloved dogs.   In her book review, Carole O'Neill stated: An Unlikely Prospect is historical fiction by Shelley Blanton-Stroud. I immediately found myself routing for Sandy Zimmer who inherits the job of publisher of the Prospect newspaper when she becomes a widow at the age of thirty-two. As San Francisco erupts in celebration, the VJ Peace Riot results in eleven deaths and six rapes throughout the city.   While everyone around her celebrates, Sandy is forced to take over her husband's former duties and win the support of her controlling father-in-law. She guides her newspaper to cover the riot by printing the truth of the assaults on the victims. However, her father-in-law tries to use his position on the board to bury the scandal in order to attract the United Nations Headquarters to San Francisco.   She knows she must navigate between the needed reporting and the required votes on her board to keep her job and save the Prospect. Convincing the other newspaper publishers in the city to divide the issues and report the truth results in her finding her voice in the male dominated world of 1945 journalism.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Shelley Blanton-Stroud Website: https://shelleyblantonstroud.com/ FB: @blantonstroudauthor IG: @blantonstroud   Purchase An Unlikely Prospect on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/48IkFku Ebook: https://amzn.to/4pWLb0D   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

Why do even experienced sales professionals struggle to move prospects from initial interest to closed deals?  The answer often lies in a fundamental misunderstanding of how prospects make decisions about change. Most salespeople jump straight to demonstrating their value without understanding where prospects are in their decision-making journey, assuming they're ready for solutions when they're still figuring out if they even have problems worth solving. In this episode of Breaking Sales, Dan and Pam break down the four distinct phases that every meaningful sales conversation must navigate. They explore why the sequence of these phases matters, how to assess whether prospects are truly ready for change, and how the time and effort prospects invest in working through decisions with you creates natural momentum toward partnership. You'll come away with a roadmap for creating conversations that honor how people actually work through complex decisions.  If you're ready to start having interactions that feel collaborative rather than transactional, this episode will show you how.

Welcome to the 2025 Award Show. We start with fight breakdowns. In this episode, we break down Saturday morning's telecast from Saudi Arabia. In the main event, Naoya Inoue rather effortlessly defeated David Picasso. It was a showcase of Inoue's great timing and reflexes, but Picasso proved to be a tough foe, hanging on until the final bell. Yet, the story of the night was Junto Nakatani. Nakatani defeated Sebastian Hernandez, but the result left many with more questions than answers. The fight was close, closer than any Nakatani had as a pro prior. Nakatani opted to fight on the inside at times, a difficult move. Some thought Hernandez won, some thought Nakatani won, as did the judges. In the end, the mega-fight between Inoue and Nakatani has taken a massive hit. Also, Erdison Garcia upset previously unbeaten Taiga Imanaga, and IBF flyweight champion Masamichi Yabuki made his second title defense, knocking out Felix Alvarado in 12 rounds. Next week, we get one fight card from Puerto Rico. Amanda Serrano will face Reina Tellez in a 10-round women's title fight broadcast on DAZN. This will be Serrano's first fight against an opponent named Katie Taylor since the summer of 2024. Tellez will be taking a major leap up in competition as she faces the toughest opponent of her career, replacing Erika Cruz. Other notable bouts on the undercard, Stephanie Han, a women's lightweight titleholder, will face legend Holly Holm, who will not just be battling Han, but father time itself. Holm, now in her 40s, is a boxing pioneer who became a legend for knocking out Ronda Rousey. She looks to win a title in the twilight of her career. Notables on the undercard include Yankiel Rivera, Jan-Paul Rivera, Henry Lebron, and Ebanie Bridges. Then, the awards. 0:00 Naoya Inoue-David Picasso13:00 Junto Nakatani-Sebastian Hernandez21:48 Boxer of the Year30:15 Women's Boxer of the Year34:50 Fight of the Year39:10 Women's Fight of the Year40:50 Round of the Year42:00 Trainer of the Year44:30 Knockout of the Year46:30 Prospect of the Year49:00 Story of the Year54:00 Vergil Ortiz vs Jaron “Boots” Ennis58:40 Guys who didn't fight enough59:25 Illegal Manuevers 01:01:28 Guy who came out of nowhere award.01:04:52 Good job, bub award01:07:00 The lost all momentum guy 01:08:30 The 2026 Breakout Fighter will be…01:10:00 Amanda Serrano-Reina Tellez Preview

How Do Top Performers Stay Motivated When Sales Gets Hard? You know the feeling when you close a big deal. The rush. The quiet satisfaction of updating your pipeline. Maybe a quick high-five with your manager. And then, almost immediately, it fades. You're back to cold calls that go unanswered, emails that disappear into inboxes, and prospects who promised they were interested suddenly going silent. In sales, rejection isn't a side effect of the job. It is the job. That reality is exactly why most people don't last in sales. And it's why the people who do last tend to get paid very well. Over the past quarter, we talked with some of the most consistent sales leaders in the business. Here are four moments from the Sales Gravy Podcast that reveal how top performers stay motivated and close more deals, even when the work feels heavy. Find Your Carrot and Make It Specific Will Frattini, VP of Sales at ZoomInfo, keeps a small Christmas ornament on his desk. His daughter gave it to him when she was five. That ornament is his carrot. During a recent podcast conversation, Will explained that when sales gets hard, that ornament reminds him exactly why he keeps pushing. Not in an abstract or inspirational-poster way, but in a deeply personal one. It represents his family, his responsibility, and the future he's building for them. That distinction matters. Many salespeople say they're motivated by family, freedom, or financial security. Those values are real, but on their own, they're often too broad to sustain sales motivation during a brutal stretch of rejection. When you're fifty dials deep with no connects and another demo just canceled, vague motivation doesn't hold up. Will doesn't just think “my family.” He sees a moment, a memory, and a tangible reminder of what's at stake. That specificity gives his motivation weight. Top performers anchor their sales motivation to something concrete and emotionally charged. A down payment they want to make by a certain date. A trip they want to take without checking their bank account. A milestone that matters beyond quota. The more specific the carrot, the more powerful it becomes when sales gets hard. How to define yours: Write down one specific outcome you want to achieve in the next six months. Not “hit quota,” but the real-world result that quota enables. A number. A purchase. An experience. Put it somewhere you'll see it every day. Work With Customers Who Actually Value You One of the fastest ways to drain sales motivation is closing deals with customers who make you miserable. On an episode of Ask Jeb, Jeb broke down how companies grow faster by focusing on the right customers, not just more customers. When you're behind on quota late in the year, it's tempting to take anything that looks like revenue. Any company that shows interest. Any prospect willing to meet. You convince yourself that a deal is a deal. Then January arrives. That customer floods your team with support tickets, questions every invoice, demands exceptions, and slowly erodes the satisfaction of the win you celebrated just weeks earlier. Consistent performers learn to protect their energy. They get ruthless about fit. Not just company size or industry, but values. They ask questions like, “What do you value most in a partner?” and they listen carefully to the answer. Some buyers want constant responsiveness. Others value expert perspective and challenge. Some want efficiency and minimal interaction. None of those preferences are wrong. But only one aligns with how you actually sell. When sales gets hard, motivation comes easier when you're pursuing customers who respect your approach instead of fighting it. How to clarify your ideal customer: Look at your three favorite customers. The ones your entire team enjoys working with. What do they share beyond surface-level traits? How did they behave during the buying process? Those patterns matter more than any firmographic filter. Slow Down Before You Create Your Own Problems When pressure builds, speed starts to feel productive. You rush contracts. You promise timelines without checking internally. You say yes to custom requirements because slowing down feels risky. On an episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount, Jr. shared one of the most painful stories we heard this year. A $1.4 million deal with a pediatrics practice unraveled after someone rushed the process and placed the client into an early adopter program without a test environment. The result was catastrophic. The client's live system crashed, HIPAA was violated, and the company lost not only the deal but $600,000 in annual recurring revenue. Top performers understand something most reps learn the hard way: smooth is fast. They build guardrails around high-risk moments. Before sending a contract, they align internally. Before committing to timelines, they check with the people who actually do the work. Slowing down at the right moments builds trust. It prevents chaos. And it preserves sales motivation by keeping you from spending the next quarter cleaning up mistakes made under pressure. How to build a slowdown system: Identify the three points in your sales process where you tend to rush. Proposals, negotiations, technical commitments. Create a short checklist for each and make it mandatory. Use AI to Think Faster, Not to Stop Thinking Sales demands constant context switching. Pipeline reviews. Prospect research. Discovery prep. Follow-up. Objection handling. The mental load adds up quickly. Victor Antonio recently shared an example of a window company using vision AI to diagnose broken window seals from photos. Instead of sending a technician, customers submit an image. The system verifies the issue, checks inventory, confirms warranty status, and schedules service automatically. AI hasn't changed what strong salespeople do. It's changed how quickly they get to the work that actually matters. Top performers use AI to handle tasks that drain energy but don't require judgment. Research summaries. Organizing notes. Drafting frameworks. That speed preserves mental bandwidth for conversations, strategy, and relationship building. Used correctly, AI supports sales motivation by reducing friction, not replacing effort. How to use AI without dulling your edge: List the tasks you repeat weekly that consume time but not insight. Let AI handle those. Keep anything involving trust, nuance, or decision-making firmly in your hands. Why This Matters for Sales Motivation Sales has always been hard. Cold calling was hard decades ago, and it's still hard today. You still have to find people, start conversations, build trust, and ask for commitments. What separates average reps from consistent performers isn't resilience alone. It's structure. Top performers know exactly what they're chasing and why it matters. They protect themselves from bad-fit customers. They slow down when it counts. And they use tools strategically to preserve energy for selling. They still get rejected. They still lose deals. They still have months where nothing goes right. But they don't drift. They don't panic. And they don't quit when the work gets uncomfortable. That discipline is what sustains sales motivation long after the initial excitement wears off. If you want a clearer target to aim at when sales gets hard, download the FREE Sales Gravy Goal Guide. It will help you define the goals that actually keep you focused, disciplined, and motivated—especially when rejection starts piling up.

What is your first contact with a new prospect? Another good question to ask yourself is how does that first contact happen? And is it proactive on my part? David: Hi, and welcome to the podcast. In today’s episode, co-host Jay McFarland and I will be discussing your first contact with a new prospect. Welcome back, Jay. Jay: Hey, it’s good to be with you again. David. When you say first contact, I always think about Star Trek with their first contact with the aliens, and I feel like you’re kind of sitting there going, okay, are these going to be nice? Are they going to try and destroy the human race. You know, there’s a lot of trepidation with first contact and sometimes that first contact, how it goes, determines the whole rest of the relationship. David: That’s exactly where I stole the term from Jay. That is exactly where I stole the term from. And the way that came about is that I was talking to somebody about cold calling. This was years and years and years ago. Well, actually we were talking about prospecting and one of the things that this person mentioned to me was something related to cold calling. And I said, “okay, well, cold calling is one way that you can reach out to people.” I said, “think of it like it’s your first contact.” And literally it was because I saw that movie about first contact and I thought it’s such a great concept. The idea of whatever, meeting an alien species for the first time is one thing. But for salespeople, you’re exactly right. It’s the same thing. We’re walking into an unknown situation. We have absolutely no idea how the person is going to react and that. Doesn’t matter whether it’s on the phone as a cold call, whether it’s meeting someone at a networking event, whether it’s through social media. We have no idea what’s on the other end until we engage. Therefore, the whole idea, the whole concept of first contact, I think is really highly appropriate. It is the very first contact that we have with a prospect. If you understand that conceptually, it can really sort of open up your mind to the possibilities and to the opportunities. Because there are a lot of people who view whatever it is they do as first contact, as first contact. What I mean is if all they do is make cold calls, they view that as first contact. If all they ever have done to generate customers is through social media, that’s what they view as first contact. When you recognize, that’s just a method, that’s just one particular method of first contact, and you realize that there’s a whole other universe. To continue the space analogy here, there’s a whole other universe of options. It really allows you to test different things to figure out what’s going to work best for you. Jay: Yeah. And I love the idea that first contact, when I first thought of this, I was thinking that’s the first time that I meet them voice-to-voice or face-to-face. And in today’s world, that’s probably not going to be the first contact. In my business, the first contact is our website. That’s the first time that they’re going to see us. Now, in my business, I’m very fortunate that our three main competitors, their websites are awful, David, they are terrible. They are designed terribly. They’re hard to read. And all the time I get people saying, literally saying to me, “I chose you because I liked your website.” We’re somebody that offers this high level of expertise and you chose us just because we have a really good web designer. But that was the difference. Their first contact with us is positive, because we spend the time to get that right. David: Yeah, it’s a lot more than the web designer too, because you could have a beautiful design, but if the words on that design are not resonating with them, it’s not going to work. Which goes back to what we talked about before, the MVPs of marketing. The message on a website will definitely determine whether or not they will be interested in what you say. Now, the way we present that, meaning the design, that’s all part of the messaging component. But if the words don’t resonate, if the imaging doesn’t resonate, they’re not going anywhere. But you’re right! So many times, people don’t recognize that first contact is happening all the time. Even with things that you’re not even aware of. You go onto social media and you post something, whether it’s a picture of your dinner or a comment about politics or something business related, that could very well be their first contact with you. And if they hate it, they’re not going to be revisiting. Jay: Yeah, exactly. And that’s why companies out there can help clean up your mistakes if you mess up. You know, we say this all the time. Once it’s on the internet, it’s never going away. Trying to clean that up. Going back to my competitors. They’ve decided that education is how they’re going to draw people in. And so they have pages and pages and pages of small text, educational information. And it’s valuable information. But I’m telling you, nobody is reading that information. Because we live in a bullet point world. We want to know within a few seconds what services you offer. And it’s amazing to me, nowadays, how few people, in fact, I would say in the last year I’ve had three people ask me for references. In a year’s time because of our website and how it’s presented. It answers their questions right away. And that’s phenomenal to me that we’re able to do that. David: Yeah, interesting that the information that’s on the website can be helpful. It can be harmful. Or anywhere in between. Because if you have too much information on there, people can get what they need without ever having to buy from you. They learn a bunch of things and then they talk to their existing vendor about the things they learn from your website, and then they can either do it or not. And a lot of the work that we do in the promotional products industry, the websites are very much the same. It’s a lot of the same products from the same manufacturers. There are similar vendors who put together these websites. So a lot of it is very similar, very cookie cutter looking in a lot of ways. And so one of the things that we do with our Total Market Domination clients is we help them with little tweaks they can make, small things they can do, even within a website that doesn’t allow a ton of customization to be able to switch things up. And change the results. Because that website, that first page that they see, I look at it like a windshield, right? Are they going to fly off it like a bug off a windshield, or are they going to look into it and say, wow, this is great. Are they going to scroll, or are they going to just bounce off it? Because if they bounce off it, you’re done. Jay: Yeah, and it’s amazing to me how many people use tactics that I know that we all deplore. Like I’ll see, hey, chat with a representative, and I’m like, yeah, I think I’m going to do that. And within two seconds I realize it’s not a representative, it’s a chat bot, and it’s only programmed to answer predefined questions. It’s not answering mine. And I’m like, come on. And then the other one I ran into just the other day that drives me out of my mind is I was looking for a quote for something. The website says, get a quote in two minutes. An instant quote. I enter in my information and then it says, okay, one of our representatives will be back with you in two days. And I get so angry when that happens because you lied to me. David: Right Jay: You told me you would give me a quote in two minutes. You completely boldface lied to me. I am done with them at that point. That was my first contact with them. I don’t want anything to do with them because I feel like that’s a dishonest practice. And when you start that way with me, forget about it. I don’t care how many other contacts we have, I’m not going to choose you. David: Exactly. So a lot of times when people are thinking in terms of first contact, well, first of all, it’s a matter of deciding to do that. Thinking, what is my first contact? What am I currently doing? Or what do I think I’m doing in terms of first contact? Now, if you reach out to somebody and they say, oh yeah, I saw you on Facebook, or I saw you on LinkedIn, or whatever, then that’s not your first contact. Whatever they saw was the first contact. So ask yourself, what is it that you want to be your first contact, and then what is the actual first contact that they’re having with you? And if you find out that there are some commonalities that a lot of what you thought was first contact actually isn’t, then you want to go back and say, all right, well what are they seeing first? And how do I need to adapt that or change that to reflect what I would like for them to see first? So what is your first contact? Another good question to ask yourself is how does it happen? How does that first contact happen? And is it proactive on my part? Is it something that I posted that I wasn’t thinking of as first contact and it just happened to turn into that? Was it that somebody saw an ad that maybe wasn’t even related to them or maybe has some sort of messaging on it that was designed to appeal to a different group of people, but they happen to see it, so now they have a misconception about who I am or what I do? There are so many different elements to this. But when you just sort of take a few minutes to try to analyze it, it becomes a lot easier to see where things could potentially be going wrong, even when you’re first interacting with someone. Jay: Yeah. And the other thing I would say is don’t squander your first contact. If you’ve got a first contact and you’ve got them to dial the phone David: mm-hmm. Jay: or something like this. We’ve all had the experience where we’re like, okay, I’m going to pick up the phone. And the person who picks up the phone is unfriendly, they’re curt, they’re not informed. And you’re like, this is the person that you put on the phone to first talk to me? You have to be very careful with who you put as the receiver of that first contact. Because if that’s not a good experience, I’m done right there again, I’m moving on. David: Yeah, and when you talk about phone, a lot of organizations will do everything in their power to keep you from talking to a human being. And I am not naming any names, but specifically the banks and the communications companies, the, you know, the cable companies, the telephone companies. They are just, and these are people you’re already paying. I’m not talking about when you want to sign up for service, when you want to sign up for service, they’ll take your call in a second. But I’m talking about after you have the service and you’re trying to get an answer to a question or resolve a problem, they will put so many robots in front of you. It’s not even funny and it’s nauseating in some cases. It’s really annoying in a lot of cases. And you could be saying into that phone, “representative, representative, customer service,” and it’ll just keep routing. Yeah, it’ll just keep routing you back and saying, first I need to get some information. And it’s brutal. It just makes you think, if I could do business with anyone else but this company, I would absolutely do that. And I don’t know, I think huge companies can get away with it to some extent because they are getting away with it. And if they have limited competition and in some areas, there’s no competition. There are still monopolies in some of the communication sectors because there are limits in terms of who you can get for your cable or your phone. It’s not a complete monopoly anymore, but it’s darn close to it. And so, they can get away with it to some extent. But most small and medium sized businesses, the kind of companies we deal with, you can’t do that. You can’t do anything close to that. Because if you do, you are never going to have a shot at that business. Jay: Yeah, you’re exactly right. In fact, just the other day I went through the phone tree, it probably took me 15 minutes. The phone finally rings. I finally have a live person, and then they’re like, “oh, I’m sorry, that’s this other department. Let me send you over to that department.” So now I’m back on hold again. And I’m just like, how do they think that this is going to keep their customers? But you’re exactly right. They know you’re not going anywhere else. But if that’s a process of first contact, then how many people are you chasing away? Especially if you’re a small company like you said. There’s no way to me that any potential cost savings could outweigh the loss of potential customers. David: I agree. Again, for the type of businesses we deal with, we have to be better than that. We absolutely have to be better. Now that’s well beyond first contact. Now we’re talking about in the trenches, the day to day and all that sort of thing. But yeah, that’s sort of a given. If you’re the kind of business who wants to get to the point where you can start treating your customers badly. You’re not going to do that from the get go. Hopefully, that’s not what you want to do anyway. But ideally, what we need to be doing is taking the opposite approach, getting people what they want, reaching out in a way, initiating first contact in a way that positions us as somebody that they actually want to do business with as opposed to somebody who’s just annoying. Jay: Yeah, absolutely. How do people find out more, David? David: Well, you can go to TopSecrets.com/call, schedule a call with myself or my team. We would be happy to walk you through a conversation. Try to figure out where you are now versus where you need to be in terms of visibility. Are you getting in front of the people that you need to get in front of? In terms of sales. Are you generating the sales you want to generate? In terms of profit. Are you generating a bunch of sales but not making any money on those sales? Right? So we’ll look at those three things. And just have a conversation to see if or how we can help. Either way. We talk to people all the time. We might not end up doing business with them at all, but almost inevitably, I’d say pretty much inevitably, they’re glad they had the conversation because it’s designed to be helpful. And if we work together, great. And if we don’t work together but you got some help on the phone, that’s great too. So we’re happy to have those conversations. Jay: Fantastic. As always, it’s a pleasure talking to you, David. David: Thanks very much, Jay. Are You Ready to Initiate Contact with the High-Dollar, High-Value Clients You Need?

Most parents want the roadmap — the blueprint that turns a young athlete into a confident, motivated, successful player. But very few people have lived all sides of the journey. In this episode of The Most Valuable Agent, Matt sits down with someone who has: Kevin Griffin — • Head Softball Coach at Belhaven University • Associate Athletic Director • Former college & semipro baseball player • And father of MLB's top minor league prospect, Connor Griffin Kevin brings a rare perspective: parent, coach, recruiter, evaluator, and someone who has navigated the pressure, opportunity, and noise of both youth baseball and youth softball. He breaks down the myths families fall for, the traps parents accidentally set, how to handle multi-sport decisions, and how he intentionally slowed down Connor's journey instead of chasing exposure. You'll learn why early recruiting hurt more than it helped, why parents should stop forcing sports onto kids, why the college sports landscape has changed for the worse, and how to protect your child's love for the game in an era that pushes them to specialize earlier and chase more. Kevin also shares the real story behind Connor's reclass, his injuries, draft process, the home visits, and how failure shaped who he is. This episode is packed with insights for both softball and baseball families navigating development, recruiting, and the emotional side of youth sports. Subscribe for weekly college recruiting strategy, baseball development insight, and leadership lessons for parents. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Why parents must stop forcing sports — and how to spot true passion • The biggest myth about Division III softball (and why scholarships aren't what you think) • How early specialization hurts athleticism, confidence, and longevity • Why playing too many games and not enough practice is destroying development • The difference between good exposure and harmful overexposure • Why parents must treat each child differently — and why "fair" is not "equal" • What college softball recruiting really looks like behind the scenes • How NIL has changed college sports — and not for the better • Why attitude matters more than talent in the recruiting process • The real story of Connor Griffin's reclass, injury, draft pressure, and development • How home visits work — and why families must set boundaries • The #1 parenting mistake that damages the parent–athlete relationship • Why kids play to please their parents — and how that affects behavior, confidence & burnout ABOUT KEVIN GRIFFIN Kevin Griffin is the Head Softball Coach and Associate Athletic Director at Belhaven University.

Don't use emotion to fight price objections. When a prospect is stuck on the numbers, emotion won't work. You have to fight logic with logic. I break down two Advanced AI Copywriting frameworks that make your price feel completely irrelevant: The "Apples to Oranges" Close and the "Identity Reframe."   I'm going to give you the specific AI Prompts that mathematically prove their price objections are silly. T hen, we cover the "Identity Challenge."
