Andy Elliott and Jeremy Miner debate whether fitness helps you sell more. Andy says a fit appearance builds trust, but Jeremy argues skills and questioning matter far more. Fitness gives you energy and presence, not sales results.

That bicep vein reaching out and shaking someone's hand. When I meet them, every person's like, man, what's going on, dude? You got a fitness company? No, no, we have a coaching company. Like, what do you guys do with fitness? What do you mean? I take care of myself, just like I'm gonna take care of you. So we do. We do what we say we're gonna do. I don't even have to tell them about the product. They're already sold. I knew if I sit down at the table and I'm negotiating with somebody and I'm talking to them about something that I want them to do, I'm pretty sure at some point they're gonna look over at me and say, does this guy do what he says he's gonna do? Like, is this guy different?
Yeah. I mean, I agree there with, with Andy. I mean, being in shape obviously gives you more energy. You never judge a book by its cover on a 60 second reel. Obviously any sales trainer like Andy would know that there's a lot more to being successful than sales, than just being fit. Right. What really sets you apart as a salesperson is the words you say. It's the questions you ask that get them to emotionally want to open up. Being fit, being. Does that help? Yes. Is it? The most vital thing in my mind, I would say no just because I've seen people that literally are 100 pounds overweight dominate the guy or gal in the gym that had the 12 pack and everything that when they got on the phone, were timid as hell because they didn't have the right skills. So obviously Andy is a beast, you know, fitness wise and everything. Loves motivational stuff. And I'm assuming he probably goes in and talks more about, hey, you gotta have skill level as well. So, yeah.
