A salesman who landed a commission-only job in 2007 shares his system for selling anything: start with friends and family, then cold email 1,000 daily contacts pulled from Seamless AI. He grew his list to 22,000 subscribers in six months using a five-email sequence, now accelerated by AI tools like Claude and custom GPTs.

In 2007, I got my first commission-only sales job, and I literally had to succeed so I could feed myself. I'm still using some of the same processes that I did then now, but things that used to take months are taking just a few minutes because of all these amazing AI tools. So if you have a product or service and you're having trouble selling it, sit down. I'm going to give you this for free because it's helped me and thousands of other people make a bunch of sales. Number 1, you're going to sell to your own backyard. What that means is sell to your friends, family, and ex-colleagues. They will give you real honest feedback, and if they love and support you, they'll buy. Number 2, cold prospecting. Judge me if you want, but it's made me a bunch of money. I use Seamless AI and I download a list of 1,000 people every day. I send an email to those thousands of people from a Gmail account. From a different domain, and it's offering them my top of funnel offers. Now, these are not spam because it's actually helpful information that I'm giving them for free, and they can easily unsubscribe. This has grown my email list from 0 to 22,000 in just 6 months. Once they're actually subscribers in your main email list, you're going to do a 5-part email series. You're going to inspire, connect, Educate, show results, and then the last one will be a video sales offer with your offer. So this is what you're going to continue to do and schedule throughout the year. Make sure you have your AI systems in place. I use Claude, I use Google AI Studio, and I use Seamless AI and custom GPTs every single day. If you don't know what those are, follow me. I explain all of those in great detail. I know you can do it. It's something you have to just get into your system and schedule it and do it every single day. Sales is a numbers game. The more you do, the more you're gonna make. All right, well, follow me for more tips on how to grow your business with AI and general sales and marketing tips.
