This is how Charlie Munger's sales leader can teach you about closing every single deal. I think he was selling magazine ads, right? Because they used to have a lot of magazine businesses. So what happened initially was that they had a target list of about 167 people and he would hit these people with new direct mail. He would hit them, he would call them, and he would constantly hit these people up. He got nothing for the first month, nothing for the second month. I think it wasn't until maybe the 6th month or so that he closed his first client of that 167 people. Who was that? Xerox. Xerox was huge at the time, right? Wow. And gradually, as the year went on, I think he eventually got 29 out of the 167. Eventually, he got all of these customers.
