Summary
Sales is not just a business skill.
Sometimes it is the moment where someone finally faces reality.
And I'm going to say something intense, but I mean it.
My dad died of a heart attack when he was 59. He had terrible lifestyle habits.
If someone would have got on the phone with him and been like, bro, no, you're not stopping, quitting smoking a week from now. You're stopping today. You're going to leave your family.
If someone went in on him, he'd probably still be alive today.
That's what I want you to sit with and why you need to learn sales with a DGAF attitude.
