Most businesses get trapped competing on price because they never learn how to create value. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast, Jeremy Miner sits down with Jacob Reese, Vice President of Standard Plumbing Supply, one of the largest family-owned wholesale distributors in the Western United States. Built over three generations. Jeremy and Jacob talk about why communication, not pricing, determines who wins, how contractors get stuck in price-based thinking, and what shifts when you move to results-based selling. They explore how influence applies to sales, leadership, operations, and decision-making, why the best ideas often lose to the best-communicated ones, and how systems like Vendor Managed Inventory help customers buy back time and increase profit. Whether you sell, lead, or run a business, this conversation shows how creating value, not competing harder, is what actually drives growth.

Many salespeople lose the deal long before they speak, because the brain decides whether to trust you in seconds. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast, Jeremy Miner talks with René Rodriguez, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and expert in applying behavioral neuroscience to real-world sales situations. René explains why 93% of communication happens before the words leave your mouth, how tonality and body language trigger either safety or resistance in the brain, and how elite salespeople use framing, storytelling, and emotional tie-downs to guide a prospect's thinking without pressure. If you want to master human behavior, prevent objections before they happen, and sell the way the brain naturally buys, this conversation covers it all.Chapters:(00:00) Introduction (02:10) René's Background in Neuroscience and Selling Change(07:26) How the Brain Makes Decisions (and Why Buyers Resist Change)(11:00) Tonality, Threat Detection, and the 93% Rule(14:52) Body Language, Congruency, and Subconscious Cues(20:11) How Elite Salespeople Prevent Objections (Not Handle Them)(26:12) Storytelling, Framing, and the Tie-Down Formula(33:58) Using Hand Gestures, Tone, and Presence to Increase TrustConnect with René Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/learnwithrene/Website: https://www.meetrene.com/Amplify Your Influence Book: https://www.amplifybook.comGot a question about sales, persuasion, or objection handling?

High-level persuasion isn't about getting to “yes” it's about making people feel safe enough to say “no.” Chris Voss, former FBI lead international kidnapping negotiator and bestselling author of Never Split The Difference, explains why “no” creates control, why tone shapes neurochemistry, and why objections are really fear, not logic. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast with Jeremy Miner, Chris breaks down tactical empathy, tonality, framing, and the exact neuroscience behind trust, influence, and decision-making. You'll learn how top negotiators de-escalate resistance, shorten deal cycles, and move people without pushing. If you want to master communication, prevent objections before they appear, and negotiate like the top 1% of persuaders, this episode gives you the playbook.Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(02:23) Why Chris Wrote Never Split The Difference(07:11) “No” vs “Yes” Why Control Changes Everything(10:19) Fear, Uncertainty, and the Real Source of Objections(14:10) Tonality, Neurochemistry, and Tactical Empathy(19:04) How Master Negotiators Practice in Everyday Life(26:21) Reframing, Identity, and Changing How People Think(33:47) Reading Emotions, Not Personalities(41:10) What Every Human Has in Common (and Why It Matters)Connect with Chris Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefbinegotiator/?hl=en Website: https://www.blackswanltd.com/ X: https://x.com/fbinegotiator?lang=en YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCk7jHqdlFFDBhC1QIFqi54w Got a question about sales, persuasion, or objection handling?

Most entrepreneurs never scale because they're trapped in a business that consumes their time instead of creating it. Dan Martell, bestselling author of Buy Back Your Time and one of the top coaches in the SaaS and entrepreneurship world, went from juvenile detention to running 100-hour weeks before discovering the framework that changed everything: buy back your time instead of trying to out-hustle your problems. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast with Jeremy Miner, Dan explains how elite CEOs use time-and-energy audits, buy-back rate math, and the four forms of leverage to scale without drowning in low-value work.

Sometimes it's not your tactics holding you back, it's the story you keep selling yourself. The wrong mindset can make even the best strategy fail. Mike Arce, founder of Loud Rumor and host of The GSD Show, has helped thousands of companies grow by focusing on the psychology behind performance. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast with Jeremy Miner, he breaks down how to think, communicate, and lead in a way that makes growth inevitable. Jeremy and Mike talk about why everyone is really buying "better," how fear of change blocks progress, and how to reframe identity, leadership, and environment to unlock consistent growth. They reveal why scaling starts with self-awareness, how to build trust that inspires teams, and what separates people who plateau from those who keep evolving.
