Joshua Emison is the founder of Tracer Franchising, where he helps individuals identify proven, scalable franchise opportunities tailored to their financial and lifestyle goals. With a background in business development and a sharp eye for operational models, he simplifies what's often a crowded and confusing process in franchising. Josh works across industries to guide clients toward sustainable, long-term ownership—whether they're exploring their first opportunity or expanding an existing portfolio.  A graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and former Marine Corps Infantry Officer, Josh approaches business ownership with the same focus and structure that defined his military career.

In today's bonus episode of the Sales Success Stories podcast, I've got the first audio of one of the sessions from this year's Sales Success Summit last month in October, and it's actually my own. I wanted to share this sooner rather than later because I sincerely hope it helps someone with the holidays on the horizon and the recent daylight savings change in the US which for many compounds the depressive effect of shorter days and more darkness, this can be a tough time of year. I thought it would be good to get this out there right away. Maybe it's for you, maybe it's something you want to share with another friend in sales. Fair warning, this is pretty raw and the language is perhaps a bit spicier than what you've perhaps gotten used to on this show, so if you've got young ears around, please be aware of that and also know that you can get your hands on this and the other presentations from this year's Summit for free thanks to our sponsors. Just click over to top1.fm/defunkify where I'm going to include this audio, links to the full video clips that you'll hear in this presentation and the link to the form where you can request your code to get access to ALL of the videos, plus a couple of other goodies if you're interested. With that, let's get into this:

Today on the Sales Success Stories podcast I've got one final Summit Hallway Series conversation for you, between Jeff Bajorek and Ian Koniak. I also have some news. Since we released the last episode, this year's Sales Success Summit has sold out, so unless a spot or two opens up, it's highly unlikely that you'll be able to join us this year if you don't already have a ticket, but there's a lot of stuff going on and we've tried to put everything together in a single place, so if you'll go to top1.fm/stuff you'll find a super simple form where you can let us know what you might be interested in whether that's joining the waitlist, purchasing a ticket for next year's Summit at the best possible price, getting your hands on the second volume of the Sales Success Stories book that we'll be releasing at this year's event, the videos and recordings, or maybe you're interested in getting involved in the evolved version of the Sales Success Community that we'll be rolling out in just a couple of weeks. We've tried to make it as easy as possible, so just click over to top1.fm/stuff for all of that, and now over to Ian and Jeff and their conversation following last year's event, just ignore the fact that I'm sharing the first one last and know that Ian has been the top-rated Summit speaker the last 2 years running. He'll be opening this year's event once again and trying for the threepeat. Here they are:

In today's bonus episode of the Sales Success Stories podcast, we continue our series of hallway conversations from last year's Sales Success Summit that we started last month with a gigantic shoutout to Jeff Bajorek for hosting these year after year.

Today's bonus episode is brought to you thanks to the generous support of The Sales Collective. To learn more about them, just click over to top1.fm/tsc for The Sales Collective. In today's bonus episode of the Sales Success Stories podcast, I've got the first in a series of hallway conversations from last year's Sales Success Summit. Truth be told, I totally forgot I had these. Jeff Bajorek has been kind enough to host this series of interviews during every Summit and until last year we released them in near real-time. With this set, I had a different plan and apparently completely forgot about said plan. The result is maybe even better because this year's Summit is just 2 months away on October 16th and 17th and these conversations are such a great reminder of just how powerful and impactful the Summit really is. Yes, the content and presentations are amazing because they exclusively feature the top performers that you've heard here on this podcast, but it's more about the experience and the opportunity to build real relationships and have real conversations with some of the best in the business. So, for the next couple of months leading up to this year's Summit, I'll be sharing some of these conversations. This one features Jeff talking with Sarah Brazier and Luke Floyd, and for added context, you can scroll back in your feed to March 21, 2023, to hear the audio from Luke's presentation. Here they are with a pretty cool little intro of their own:

David Weiss is an experienced sales leader and author.

Never Struggle With Sales Again: Identify, Attract and Close your Ideal Clients FREE MINI-COURSE

In today's bonus episode of the Sales Success Stories podcast I've got maybe the most unique share yet. Right after the Sales Success Summit in October my pipeline of tips for the Daily Sales Tips podcast was running quite low, so I asked some core members of the Sales Success Community to contribute some tips. Now if you're a regular listener to that show, you may have heard a couple of these ideas from Jacquelyn Nicholson and Mike Simmons but the raw unedited version was so much fun I thought I'd just share the whole thing here. I'm going to have my audio editor make a few minor tweaks based on his judgement to clean up a couple of transitions, but other than that we're going to keep it pretty raw and if you click over to top1.fm/JM for Jacquelyn/Mike, we're going to include the full unedited video. Here they are, Enjoy!

Thank you for listening to the Sales Success Stories podcast. I want to give you a bit of an update on what's going on in a somewhat temporary form as there are some things I'll talk about here that won't be relevant in a few weeks, so at that point I'm actually going to delete this episode. If you're already on our listener list and get our weekly emails, then you will have already seen the core details I'm going to share.

In today's bonus episode on the Sales Success Stories podcast I want to talk about doing your due diligence on a new sales role. This is something that has come up over and over again in this community because the position you find yourself in, in terms of the company you're selling for, the industry, and in large part who you're working for can have a massively outsized impact on your success in sales, and I've threatened for way too long to create some type of resource to help with these decisions. Well, here's your resources thanks to a thread in the Sales Success Community Slack that Luke started, with some significant contributions from Eddie Baez and David Weiss.

In today's episode, I sit down with David Wiess, a top-performing sales executive, leader of high-performing teams, and sales coach of people with big dreams and goals. He is the author of Your Definitive Sales Career Guide and Sales Success Stories. We talk about the approach that can make a business successful.Connect with Davidhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/davidlbweiss/Connect with Jeffhttps://jgsalespro.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffgoldbergsalescoach/

Today on the Sales Success Stories podcast I have a bit of an encore episode for you. I originally shared this follow-up interview with Brandon Fluharty as a bonus episode in early June of last year, but because it wasn't one of the numbered interview episodes it's been a little hard for people to find. So because of that AND because Brandon has just recently released his 7 Steps to 7 Figures eBook, I thought I'd share this again officially as episode 139. So for all of the links and resources, you can just click over to top1.fm/139. Here it is:

That list today is three hundred podcasts strong. And it surprised me that there wasn't a single show on that list focused on sales technology.” (03:55) “I wanted to know as the marketplace changes dramatically – especially in this last year – what are the very best people who are at the top of their game right now, what are they doing.” (05:45) “At the end of the day, for me, Sales Success Stories is such a selfish thing because I get to talk to the smartest people in sales who are driving the best results. And many of them have become my mentors and my friends. The impetus for the event was just to share that.” (08:42) “The hope is that we bring actionable ideas, a look to the future, and some inspiration.” (10:07) “To me, what's so exciting about this is how irrelevant this conversation may be in two or three or four years because of that pace of innovation. And just staying on top of that and watching where it goes is the thing that excites me most about this show and these conversations.” (15:32) “It's actually smarter to ask dumb questions than it is to appear smart and not ask the question. Because you're probably not the only one that's wondering, ‘What does that mean exactly?'” (20:57) Links Mentioned: Scott Ingram on LinkedIn Thom Singer on LinkedIn Sales Success Media Salestech is the new martech, and it's supercharging both professions by Scott Brinker Nancy Nardin's SalesTech Landscape All Active Sales Podcasts Sales Success Stories Podcast Daily Sales Tips Podcast Sales Success Summit Sales Automation Companies on Crunchbase
