Have you ever been rejected when doing your prospecting? Of course you have. Probably thousands of times in your life so far. It comes with the territory. But putting in the work helps you find your people. Getting hundreds of "No's" helps you find the dozens who say, "Yes!"  In this throwback episode of the Millionaire Insurance Producer podcast host ⁠Charles Specht⁠ explains how to embrace the rejecting haters when prospecting in order to find the people who want to do business with you and say, "Yes!" Key Topics: Embracing rejection as part of the sales process Filtering prospects to find the right clients Prospecting is a numbers game; selling is about relationships Success stories of producers landing high-value accounts Choosing between quantity or quality in your book of business Persistence and strategic messaging lead to more wins Reach out to  ⁠Charles Specht⁠ Visit: ⁠Permission Producer School⁠ ⁠Permission Network⁠ Produced by ⁠PodSquad.fm

Guest: Nick Sowards   Guest Bio: ​Started cleaning machines in California at 18 years old at my grandfather's company. Graduated into selling machines at 19, then left his company at 20 to sell new machines. Left California in 2004 and joined Absolute Machine Tools, selling their imported brands. In 2015, became GM for Absolute, running their Chicago facility. 2017 needed a change in my life and left Absolute with joining Ellison Technologies in December 17, and the ride has been great thus far! I'm a sales manager for NE Ohio and a territory manager for Lake and 1/2 of Cuyahoga County. I was honored to have been the #1 salesman in Ellison for GP and units for 2023, with also getting salesperson of the year awards. Been in the top 5-10 ever since I started with Ellison in 2017. We have a great team in Ohio, so that helps!   Key Points: Early Influences and Entry into Sales · Grandfather's machine shop played a formative role. He started by cleaning machines as a kid to earn money for things his family couldn't afford. · Originally planned to become an FBI agent, but his mother recognized his strong communication skills and encouraged sales. · A pivotal moment came when he accidentally made a $10,000 sale, earned $200 commission, and realized sales were more rewarding than cleaning machines.   Motivation and Personal Drive · Grew up poor, became a young father, and was driven by the desire to support his family, including allowing his wife to stay home. · Has seven daughters, now expecting three grandchildren, further reinforcing his motivation to succeed financially and professionally.   Leadership and Management Style · Leads a tight-knit sales team of three, focusing on trust, open communication, and family-like support. Believes success is shared: if his team does well, he does well. · Encourages open access; his team can call him anytime, for work or personal matters.   Hiring Philosophy · Looks for motivation (expensive hobbies, family responsibilities) and coachability. · Avoids hiring “negative” people; prioritizes positive, adaptable personalities. · Uses personality assessments and informal settings (like lunch) to gauge candidates more authentically. Watches for signs of intrinsic drive, not just skill.   Building Trust with New Hires · Leads by example: gave a full commission on a deal made the day before a new rep joined, demonstrating generosity and fairness. · Builds trust through action, not just words, follows through, supports his team, and solves problems directly or connects them with the right resources.   Sales Philosophy · Be honest and transparent: admit when you don't know something, but always get the correct answers. · Never be a “yes man”, integrity builds long-term relationships. · Success is based on persistence, teamwork, and customer focus.   Guest Links: Cell: 216-347-9566 Email: nsowards@ellisontechnologies.com Connect on LinkedIn     About Salesology®: Conversations with Sales Leaders Download your free gift, The Salesology® Vault.

Send us a textIn this essential episode of "The Selling Podcast," your hosts Mike and Scott tackle a critical yet often mishandled aspect of sales: the framework of effective follow-up. We've all been there – a great initial conversation, but then the follow-up falls flat, or worse, pushes the prospect away. This week, we break down how to master your follow-up strategy to keep deals alive and ultimately, close more sales.We dive into three common pitfalls and how to avoid them, ensuring your follow-up is always impactful and professional:Don't Act Overly Grateful or Apologetic: We discuss why expressing excessive gratitude or apologies in your follow-up can inadvertently undermine your position and value. Mike and Scott explain how to convey appreciation and professionalism without appearing desperate or weak, maintaining a strong, confident posture that reflects your expertise.Don't Go Into Sales Mode Too Fast: The biggest mistake? Immediately launching into another pitch. We emphasize the importance of pacing your follow-up. Learn how to nurture the relationship, provide value, and build continued rapport before pushing for the next step or reiterating your offering. This approach keeps the conversation relational and prevents you from becoming just another sales rep.Keep It Relational: At its core, effective follow-up is about building and maintaining a genuine connection. Mike and Scott share tactics for keeping your communication human, relevant, and focused on the prospect's needs and context, rather than just your agenda. Discover how to provide helpful insights, share relevant content, or simply check in thoughtfully to demonstrate ongoing value and interest.This episode provides a clear, actionable framework for sales professionals to refine their follow-up techniques, ensuring every touchpoint builds momentum, reinforces value, and moves the sales process forward with grace and effectiveness.Scott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

Today, our first guest for the week, Garrett Bowers of Bowers Trucking, explains the significance of face-to-face networking and its role in building relationships within the transportation industry! Garrett highlights how crucial it is to create a personal connection with potential clients, build systems for business development, prospect consistently, enhance transparency, and operate teams efficiently for scalability and profitability!   About Garrett Bowers Born and raised in Ponca City, Garrett is a proud alumni of PO-HI where he played football, wrestled, and was highly involved in 4H and FFA. Garrett earned a scholarship to attend Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College for livestock judging and his success there led to scholarship opportunities to join the Oklahoma State University judging team. At OSU, Garrett served as a Senator for the College of Agriculture. His livestock judging team members won several national contests including the coveted national collegiate championship in 2006. He graduated OSU with a bachelor's degree in May of 2007. Although Garrett grew up working alongside his father, Ranond, and grandfather, Glen (who was the founder of Bowers Trucking) – he was no stranger to entrepreneurial ventures. Before the age of 10, he had as many as 20 bottle-fed calves and even sold watermelon and corn in front of the truck yard alongside Highway 60. Later on, at age 16 he started his own custom hay business, which earned him the National FFA Degree recognition in 2004. When Garrett joined the family business after graduation in 2007, Bowers Trucking operated a dozen trucks within a 150-mile radius concentrated on end dump, aggregate, and construction material hauling. By 2010, Garrett diversified operations by redirecting focus to service the vast manufacturing industries located in Ponca City. By 2013, Bowers Trucking was operating in all 48 states and expanded into Canada and Mexico. Increased customer demand ultimately led to Garrett starting his own logistics company to help coordinate customer overflow. In 2016, Bowers Logistics was formed and the first agent was hired to meet the growing customer base with partner trucking companies looking for freight. By 2018, Bowers Trucking and Bowers Logistics became Department of Defense certified – the first trucking company based in Oklahoma to do so. Today, Bowers Trucking and Bowers Logistics employs 58 full-time employees. Together, the companies operate 50 trucks, and 108 trailers and service 5,000+ carrier partners while still retaining their core customer base from over a decade ago. Garrett met his wife Melissa in Athens, Georgia when the Oklahoma State Cowboys played their season opener against the University of Georgia. With some irresistible charm and a truckload of luck, Garrett convinced Melissa to relocate to Ponca City in 2009. Garrett and Melissa have been married for 13+ years, and they have a son, HB, who graduated PO-HI in  2021 and attended Oklahoma State University. Garrett coached HB's elementary year football teams and served on Osage County's Livestock Board, the FFA Booster Club, and the Quarterback Club. He is a graduate of Ponca City Leadership. He currently serves as seat # 3 commissioner for the City of Ponca City and has been an appointed trustee with the Ponca City Development Authority since 2018 and was chosen to serve two terms on U.S. Senator Inhofe's Service Academy Selection Committee.   Connect with Garrett Website: https://bowerstrucks.com/  Email: garrett@bowerstrucks.com  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garrett-bowers-7a2b9186/

Episode Info After a series of conferences where I saw some sales tactics that were having the opposite effect from what the person employing them would have wanted, I thought I'd use an episode to share some of the advice I give to companies I've advised over the years. It's informed by my direct experience having been an executive at insurance companies who got sold to, and running the sales function for a B2B SaaS insurtech solution provider. Hopefully this is valuable to anyone trying to sell into the insurance industry (and to those of us on the receiving end of those sales efforts!). Episode Summary This episode provides insights into effective sales and networking strategies for those selling to insurance companies. It challenges conventional sales tactics and emphasizes the importance of personalized and informed approaches. Key Points: Personalized Outreach: Avoid blanket approaches like mass emails or messages. Instead, invest time in understanding if the recipient is a genuine prospect. Tailor your messages to address specific needs and demonstrate genuine interest. Challenges with Conventional Tactics: Many sales playbooks advocate for reaching out to everyone, but this often leads to brand damage and wasted efforts. The video argues that the insurance industry requires a different approach due to its unique nature. Effective Networking: Utilize platforms like LinkedIn for meaningful connections rather than relying solely on event apps, which are often underutilized. Be mindful of social etiquette, such as not interrupting ongoing conversations or meetings. Building Relationships: Focus on being informed and culturally aware to foster genuine relationships. The goal is to reach a point where the prospect feels understood and sees you as a potential solution to their challenges. Practical Advice: Spend a few moments researching potential clients to ensure they are the right fit. Be upfront about your intentions to avoid wasting time on both sides.

Michael is dedicated to fostering professional development within his team, creating a positive and supportive work environment. His leadership has been instrumental in managing complex projects, including overseeing the most intricate commercial installations in DIRECTV's history. Michael's commitment to excellence and his ability to build strong relationships make him a respected figure in sales management.   Key Points: Backstory & Entry into Sales Michael didn't originally see himself in sales due to negative stereotypes. Started as a part-time employee and unknowingly excelled in sales by simply helping people. Realized that sales is just helping people achieve what they want. Created a personal sales model based on fishing: F + L + P = Success o Fish = Prospect o Location = Where you find them o Presentation = How you engage them   Career Growth Held various sales and sales management roles, growing from retail to B2B and outside sales. Learned cold calling, refined targeting, became top salesperson, and began training others. Gained confidence through servant leadership and authenticity from mentor Evan.   Leadership Style Key philosophy: He supports, removes roadblocks, and leads by doing. Authenticity: This means being the best version of yourself and not pretending to be someone you're not. Team integration: Prioritizes relationships and alignment rather than authority.   Hiring Philosophy Core values come first. Look for loyalty, professionalism, and hard work. Uses tools like LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter. Prefers candidates with equipment-adjacent experience and a stable job history. Wants long-term team members who see the company as a place to retire from.   Managing Existing Teams Challenges of managing people already in place when you're new. Focuses on building trust through authenticity and helpfulness rather than authority. Believes in empowering the team, not controlling it.   Performance Management Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs): Custom, supportive, and hands-on. Rooted in detailed effort and results analysis. Requires a heavy coaching commitment from him. Goal: fix performance issues collaboratively before considering termination. Terminations: The most difficult part of leadership, handled with empathy and responsibility.   Training & Onboarding Critical to success: structured, immersive, and cross-functional. Includes vendor trainings, internal team shadowing, and real-time coaching. Believes great onboarding sets the foundation for long-term success.   Guest Links: Connect on LinkedIn       About Salesology®: Conversations with Sales Leaders Download your free gift, The Salesology® Vault.

Episode 097: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Jason Early, Founder and CEO of RISR, a wealthtech platform helping financial advisors better serve business owners. With a background in financial services, leadership, and fintech, Jason is passionate about solving complex problems and empowering advisors through data, technology, and behavioral insight. Kyle and Jason explore why business owners are often an underserved yet high-potential client segment. Jason shares how RISR equips advisors with the tools and technology needed to navigate the complex needs of these clients—and why now is the time to tap into this fast-growing market. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:40) - Jason's money moment (04:45) - What RISR is all about (06:28) - Key tools and features RISR offers advisors (08:23) - Why so many business owners go without financial advisors  (10:32) - What makes business owners ideal long-term clients (12:44) - How AI powers the RISR platform (16:49) - Prospecting strategies for engaging business owners (18:54) - The growing industry focus on business owners (21:50) - Future trends in financial advising (24:35) - Jason's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways A large portion of high-net-worth individuals are business owners, yet many don't work with financial advisors—representing a major growth opportunity. Business owners face unique and often complex financial situations that require more than traditional wealth management—advisors who understand this can deliver outsized value. While business owners may not always have immediate liquidity, their long-term potential makes them ideal clients for strategic, relationship-driven advisors. RISR helps advisors serve this segment by providing smarter data, personalized insights, and tools designed specifically for the challenges business owners face. Quotes "Business owners need better advice, and the advisors that serve them need better tools and technology." ~ Jason Early "Business owners make the best clients for advisors. We need to position advisors with the tools and the technology to be able to serve." ~ Jason Early "68% of millionaires own businesses, and 89% of people worth $30 million or more own businesses. And so, if you are in the advice business, you get paid for the size of the problems you sell. And nobody has bigger problems than business owners." ~ Jason Early Links  Jason Early on LinkedIn RISR McKinsey & Company Be Where Your Feet Are Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with Turncast Turncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

Guest: Tom Wardach   Guest Bio: ​After serving for a few years as an officer in the US Army, I ventured into the business world, and that wasn't even my original plan! After almost 35 years in my current industry, I never thought that I would be in it for that long. And yet after more than 3 decades, here I still am. I have had the capacity to work for some great companies and wonderful teams in sales, personnel, customer service, product, and information management.   Key Points: Background and Career Path · Tom attended a military college in South Carolina and served in the Army. Leadership and discipline learned there laid the groundwork for his career. · Transitioned to sales through a connection his wife had with Georgia-Pacific, where he began as an inside salesperson. · Emphasizes the importance of connections, not burning bridges, and seizing opportunities.   Military Lessons Applied to Sales · Experience in leading teams in the military helped him lead sales teams. · Military discipline translates well to self-motivation and accountability in sales roles, especially in remote work settings.   Egger Wood Products Role · Initially hired for a key account manager role, was later promoted to lead the U.S. sales team as part of a succession plan. · Tasked with building the U.S. sales team essentially from scratch.   Building a Sales Team · Before hiring, he and the company identified what traits they were looking for in candidates. · Uses a collaborative approach to hiring, incorporating feedback from other team members and HR. · Emphasizes collaboration, input from colleagues, and a structured onboarding process.   Hiring Philosophy · Candidates must have a proven sales background. · Prefers candidates with a short learning curve on the product side due to immediate business needs. · Ideal hires have both sales and some industry familiarity (e.g., OEM experience). · Doesn't hesitate to make quick decisions when it's clear a hire isn't a good fit, unlike companies that wait too long. · Acknowledges the emotional difficulty of letting people go, even when necessary.   Sales Team Expectations · Key account managers are expected to both acquire new business and grow existing accounts. · Sales at Egger involve long sales cycles and complex conversions (e.g., product switching or manufacturing changes). · A key priority is expanding Egger's brand presence in the U.S. since its local manufacturing started in 2020.   Guest Links: Connect on LinkedIn       About Salesology®: Conversations with Sales Leaders Download your free gift, The Salesology® Vault.

If you're in field sales, you know the reality: You spend hours every week sitting behind the windshield, staring at traffic that's moving at the speed of molasses. Whether you're dealing with Atlanta's notorious I-285 parking lot or any other major city's rush hour nightmare, that windshield time is either making you better or making you bitter. Recently on the Ask Jeb segment of the Sales Gravy podcast, Jacob Kimrey asked about helping his field sales team maximize their productivity while stuck in traffic. But here's the thing—this advice isn't just for managers to give their reps. It's for YOU, the field rep, to take control of your own success. Let me tell you how to turn those frustrating hours in traffic into your secret weapon. Driving Isn't an Accomplishment First, let's get something straight: driving is not an accomplishment. I don't care if you put 200 miles on your car today—that doesn't mean you accomplished anything meaningful for your business. Too many field reps confuse activity with productivity. They think because they drove all over creation, they had a productive day. Wrong. The goal is to minimize your windshield time and maximize your face-to-face time. But when you ARE stuck in traffic, you better make damn sure you're using that time to get better. Smart Territory Management Saves Windshield Time Before we talk about maximizing windshield time, let's talk about minimizing it through smart territory planning. Map your territory into quadrants: Monday territory, Tuesday territory, Wednesday territory, Thursday territory, and Friday territory. If you're supposed to be in your Monday quadrant but you're driving to your Friday area, you better have a damn good reason. When you're planning your field time: Group your appointments geographically: Don't hopscotch all over your territory in one day Plan your route in advance: Use your CRM to map out the most efficient route Use the T-calling technique: When you arrive somewhere for an appointment, look left, look right, look behind you—can you make additional calls in that immediate area? The tighter your route planning, the more selling time you create and the less windshield time you waste. Prospecting from the Road (Safely) Now, here's where it gets interesting. That windshield time can actually become prospecting time—if you do it safely and legally. There are apps and dialers that let you load phone numbers and dial hands-free while you're stuck in traffic. You can also set up your phone so contact numbers are easily accessible with voice commands. Safety first: Only do this when you're completely stopped in traffic or pulled over. Never compromise safety for a sales call. Hands-free follow-up calls: Use voice-to-text features to send follow-up messages to prospects or customers. Planning calls: Call ahead to confirm appointments or reschedule meetings. Customer check-ins: Those relationship-building calls that keep you top-of-mind with existing customers. The key is preparation. Have your call lists ready, know who you're calling and why, and keep it simple and safe. Voice Technology Is Your Friend Today's smartphones have incredible voice capabilities that field reps should be leveraging: Voice-to-text for quick CRM updates Voice memos to capture important thoughts or follow-up reminders Hands-free scheduling and calendar management Voice-activated research on prospects or companies Learn to use these tools, and you'll be amazed how much more productive your windshield time becomes. Welcome to Automobile University The number one thing you should be doing while stuck in traffic is attending what the great Zig Ziglar called "Automobile University." When you're sitting in your car, staring at brake lights, what's coming through your speakers? Is it the news (which will just make you angry)? Music (which won't make you any money)? Or are you investing in content that makes you better at...
