FAQ:
- 1 YEAR ACCESS, PAY MONTHLY OR ANNUALLY NOT A SUBSCRIPTION
- OFFICE HOURS EVERY OTHER WEEK VIA ZOOM. 1 HOUR GROUP Q&A.
- UNLIMITED 1-ON-1'S ARE FREE AS LONG AS THEY CAN BE SHARED IN THE COURSE. 1-ON-1 ARE
- FULL ACCESS ON DAY ONE - NOTHING IS GATED OR TIME RELEASED.
- ALL CONTENT IS VIDEO BASED AND SELF PACED
- I RECOMMEND TAKE COURSE ONCE WITHOUT NOTES OR APPLYING IT SO YOU UNDERSTAND THE BIG PICTURE FIRST. THEN TAKE AND APPLY IT STEP BY STEP.
- YOU START WHEN YOU WANT AND GO AS FAST OR SLOW AS NEEDED.

— SAMPLE EMAIL TO EXPENSE THE COURSE
MGR,
I have been listening to the brutal truth about sales podcast for X months and it speaks to the issues we face.
They currently offer a course that includes video instruction, group Q&A and One-on-One coaching. I'm committed to my own personal development and
would like your help in expensing the course.
It would pay for itself if I closed only one new deal of $X value.
Please let me know by Friday if I can move forward with this 1 year course.
Thanks,
ME

| 0:00.0 | The interviews, they just keep on getting better. I got another great guest for you today. |
| 0:05.5 | How do I do this? Oh, it's a lot of work. I got to tell you. Trying to find the very best salespeople |
| 0:11.7 | out there that will give us just a little bit of time to share their story, share their approach, |
| 0:18.2 | share how they do things a little differently. And these are the distinctions that we all |
| 0:23.6 | want to learn. We all want to take note of. We want the shortcut. We want the smart cut, a smarter way |
| 0:32.3 | of selling because we only have so much time. None of us has a 25-hour day. We all have 24. So how do we make |
| 0:43.2 | the most of it and get the highest return for our hard work instead of just that rejection? |
| 0:50.8 | That's what we're going to be talking about today is that smarter way of getting that conversation started with people. |

| 1:22.7 | Finding something in this big world of 7 billion people is pretty hard there's a lot of things to |
| 1:29.8 | do people don't pick up the phone they don't tell the truth they don't reply to our emails we have to |
| 1:35.6 | do something smarter so that's what we're going to be talking about today hey and i really appreciate |
| 1:40.3 | you listening but could you do me a little favor? Just one. You don't have to write a |
| 1:45.9 | review that takes time. If you do great, thank you. Just tell a friend about the show. |
| 1:52.2 | Somebody who wants to become better at sales, not the people in the B-player trap, the know-it-alls, |
| 1:58.9 | the two ears in one mouth, people, the people who really want |
