Yeah, I just want to get started, like on the right foot and not learn any, like, bad habits because, like, I've never sold anything.
You're smart, man. It sounds like you're the type of person that is a forward thinker.
Yeah.
Do you. Are you on your own or do you have a family you're taking care of?
Oh, my own, dude. I'm only 22.
You're only 22? This guy is committed to mastery. That's awesome, man. A lot of people say they want to get really good at sales, but then they never do.
What, they never train or do anything?
Yeah, they never train. And then who do they typically blame that on?
The leads.
The leads. My, you know, my prospects are broke. So for you to like, think that way already, you've already got advantage. Like being that forward thinking. Is that something you're born with or something you had to, like, learn as you've gone in life.
Just feel like this is where God's leading me and I just want to just be the best I can for Jesus, you know what I mean?
Why so important to you now, though?
Because I've been thinking about this for too long. Like, I need to do sales. Like, I'm not trying to just be on the construction site my whole life. You know what I mean? Yeah.
How much do you feel like that's cost you, delaying that decision?
Oh, dude, I don't even want to think about that. I don't know.
Look, I know you're not like people out there that exaggerate and don't take accountability. You obviously sound like you're the type of person that's accountable. How much do you feel like you've lost?
At least like 12k a month.
Get the phone. What's the calculator?
I don't have a. Oh, that's 144.
Do you want to pay life another 144,000 this year?
No, I don't.
Is it more expensive to get the funding together? We train you those skills, you force your company to pay you that much, or is it more expensive to do nothing at all? Keep selling the same way and you keep losing another 12 grand a month.
Damn, I probably should have done this last week.
You feel like this could be the answer for you?
Yeah. Let's do it.
Smart man. You're not a dabbler. You're committed to mastery, and that's why you'll succeed.
