It's education. It's making sure that someone understands the exact context that they're negotiating it. So that they look at the market and you show them comparable figures and you show 'em from the standpoint of performers on the field and value to team, how they rate among their peers, and then what that leads to in terms of other comparable packages. And the key is managing expectations. You're so much better to under promise and overperform, and it's all about expectations.” - Leigh Steinberg “I think the first key is not having kids play too young. So the younger brain is still in formation and if it takes that to do a concussion for a younger kid.” - Leigh Steinberg “It's getting into someone's heart and mind and seeing them holistically.” - Leigh Steinberg “..you realize that the athletic skillset is just a formula for success in life.” - Leigh Steinberg “Don't push it until I'm forcing you to lock in. Then understand that all people have egos and all people have pride. Don't push someone against the wall.” - Leigh Steinberg Useful Resources: Get a copy here: The Agent: My 40-Year Career Making Deals and Changing the Game by Leigh Steinberg with Michael Arkush Get in touch: Follow Leigh on his Website, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn Connect with Ben: https://benreinberg.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealbenreinberg/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benreinberg Twitter: https://twitter.com/realbenreinberg FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealBenReinberg/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@therealbenreinberg Check out Ben's firm here: https://alliancecgc.com/
