The Difference Between High Performers vs Low Performers in Sales

Matt Ryder and Marco discuss what separates top sales performers from struggling ones. They cover the mindset, habits, and specific skills that drive results, with personal stories and practical strategies for sales professionals.
Hey, guys. Welcome to the episode of Coffee is for Closers. Me and James today. Yeah.
What are we, like, week six and in lockdown at the moment? Getting crazy. I'm desperate for a haircut, as are you.
You wouldn't know. Just wear hats.
Yeah.
So today, so I save money, what.
Were we going to run through today?
The difference between top performers and low performers.
Okay, interesting.
So if you're a sales rep looking to become a top performer or a business owner who's looking to migrate your low performers into top performers, make sure you stay tuned, like, subscribe, hit notification bells, all that kind of good stuff, and then we can cue the intro.
If you listen to this podcast, you will make your first million within three years. I'm going to repeat that. You will make a million dollars within three years of the first episode. You listen. We don't want pikers. We're not here to save the manatees. We're here to make podcasts. You really want this? You listen and review.
Put that coffee down. All right, so what are the most common traits, first and foremost, that you see with top performers? And then, same question with bottom performance.
I mean, the biggest thing is the mirror, right? Just look in the mirror, See a top performer. That's how I roll. No, I think the biggest difference is one skill. Obviously, like, skill set plays a huge role. I don't mean talent. I don't mean, like, oh, they just have good leads or whatever. I mean, like, genuine skill set. Like, they're really good at what they do. And then the other is, like, attitude. You know, top performers solve problems, right, without being. Without having to be told there is a problem. And then bottom performers, they just whinge.
And moan a thousand questions that don't ask.
I don't have any leads. What do I do?
Try hitting the ring button.
Yeah, that'll work, mate. Like, it does my head in. The people who even can be top performers are people who realize that things are not their fault, but they are their problems. They go out there and they fix stuff. That's just the way it is. If you're sitting there right now and you're. And you think you don't make money because you don't have enough leads or because the leads aren't good enough or because, like, oh, it's just my industry. It's like, no, there is a guy in the exact same situation of you that's crushing it. Living the dream, driving a Jet Ski. They say money can't buy happiness, but you can sure as hell buy a Jet Ski. And if you've ever seen somebody on a jet ski that isn't smiling ever.
I have once. That's a.
Did you run over somebody on a jet ski?
But they run over me.
Yeah, fair enough. Well, if I ran over you, I'd be happy as. So there you go.
Yeah, fair point. He didn't mean it though.
Yeah, so, yeah, like I said, I think that that's a. Hits a huge thing. And then like, I think just attitude, you know, I think one of the difference, like when I was in business is the difference between like myself as the top performer in the business and, and the other guys was like, I was just willing to do stuff that they weren't willing to do when they were at the beach or where they were doing stuff. And counting their four figure commission check every month, like I was getting five figure and close to six figure commission checks because not that I worked more hours, right. Like physically worked more hours, but I had systems, you know, behind how to do stuff and like just created creative solutions to problems that I had. Like that guy who, you know, messaged you today I want to learn Matt's objection handling system.
So listen to it 10 times.
Yeah, just like keep listening to it. What do I get access to this training? You literally saw the video. You just watched me do it.
That was it.
There you go. Break it down. Like, you can pay us a bunch of money to break it down for you. You can just take action. Like, I remember I signed up this one girl in a sales training and she had taken segments of all of the sales training that we had done for free and built her own script.
Spot on. Genius.
I was like, yep, there you go. That's how you do that. Like, you'll be fine. You're a straight hustler. You know what I mean?
Yeah, that's really like part of the attitude. It's problem solving. See a problem, you solve it.
But like, what is sales? It's just problem solving. So like when guys come to me and they're just like, oh, how do I get a job? Or how do I do this? Like, how do I get my first sales gig, mate? Just ask a bunch of people if they want a sales guy.
Yeah, like there's so many groups you can post in. But like also you ask all these questions. There is an entire back catalog of content, not just from us, but from other people that are pretty large in the sales industry.
Do you literally just want me to go through my YouTube and just like send you videos like a little baby bird? Just Go through hundreds of videos on YouTube. Hundreds. Way too many videos, you know, and it's just like, man, like, I've got videos on how to get your first sales gig. It's called how to get your first sales gig. Just go, watch that. I broke it down. Why should I repeat myself?
I also kind of understand there is a lot of content out there. You have a question, you ask it. So at least it's initiative, you know, somewhat perceived initiative.
Yeah, but like, what I would want to see is like, hey, man, I went through your catalog. I watched the video on how to get your first sales gig. I'd love clarification on this.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
It's like when I have guys in sales sniper that, you know, go, hey, Matt, can I book a 40 minute training session? I go, sure. Almost always, I always say yes. Like, yeah, sure, because they work for us. And they go, I want to get better at this, this, and this. Okay, what are your stats on this, this, and this? I don't know.
I don't know.
Do you want me to do, man? Do you want me just to magic you? You're now better. Like, give me some hard figures, bro. Like, tell me exactly why and what and how, and then from there we can work together.
That's also what I say to her, guys. It's like, hey, if you want to book in time with me, you better turn up with an actual problem that I can't solve that I can solve. Like, I don't want to sit there and have to figure out what the problem is. It's like you recognize what you need to work on, then we work on it. Otherwise can't help.
Yeah, like, it just. It does it right. Does my head in, to be honest.
Then you just waste my time. And the next time you ask, we say no.
Yeah. And so like, I think that big one of the big difference between like low performers and top performers is that it's mainly the attitude of, like, I'll do everything in my power to self diagnose and fix. And then once I've exhausted all the things that I have at my disposal, I will then ask for help. Like, I will never, ever ask anyone for help until I've tried four or five different ways of figuring out myself.
Okay.
Except for, like, you.
Yeah, I was gonna say, really?
But like a mentor, for example.
Yeah, yeah.
I get like, if I'm getting mentored by somebody, like, I'll take what they do and I try and do it perfectly. Emulate them perfectly. Like, emulate them then from There, like, figure out why they're doing what they're doing. And then if I have a problem with it, I'll try and do my best to kind of solve it on my own. Because that's really how you learn. Like, really good mentors don't give you solutions. They ask you questions which make you come up with the solution.
Yeah, it's usually like, I mean, I had a chat with Barry the other week and said, hey, I like how you did your goal setting stuff. Like, I've ran through this process. Can you help me out with a template? Because I fucked up somewhere here, not sure where, not sure when, but I've not made the full connection in one certain area. And I need some, I guess, help in recognizing where that is so I can improve it. Like, that's building a process for our guys in terms of goal setting, right?
Yeah.
So it's funny, you go with that. You get. You get a good answer, I guess.
Yeah, like, that's the thing, right? Like, good, good mentors, they really do. They go like, okay, well, like. Like, I'm sort of teaching Marco how to coach at the moment. And like, because he's like, right now, it's like asking Roger Federer to explain why he had a forehand on that corner instead of that corner. He's like, cause that was the right thing to do. It's like, just do that.
It's not teachable. Just know when it's the right thing to do and do that.
Yeah, exactly. So it's like when I coach people, I go, okay, let's just pause. What was your thought process behind that? And then it's like, what was this? And, okay, well, where were you going to go? Why were you going to go that way?
What.
What are the possible pros and cons of that line of thinking? And they kind of go, yeah, well, I guess it's kind of like there's more cons than pros. I'm like, okay, so what should you have done? Like, I should have done this. Okay, so why would you do that or do this? Okay, so next time when you hear that, what are you going to think? I'm going to think this. Okay, perfect. Like, that's how you teach someone. You don't just go, hey, man, you should have said this.
Yeah, I saw the ball coming in on a set angle, and I was in the right position for it, so I hit it back as hard as I could. You know, a question, an answer is only as good as the question you asked to receive it. You ask A question, you get a answer.
That's exactly right. No such thing as stupid questions. Just stupid people.
Just stupid people asking.
Exactly. So, yeah. So I think, like, you know, to kind of go back. Like, if I have a look at the guys who have been really successful within our organization, like, I don't think natural talent played a huge role for a lot of them. I think that, like, tenacity, wanting to learn. Like, you look at someone like Ace. Not a very naturally gifted salesperson. Sorry for hearing this, Ace. But now he's now a successful sales guy. He's now making over $10,000 a month, which is more money than he'd ever seen before previously. He's doing really, really well, and he's a proper success story, and he'll only get better and better and better. And that process was pure, total determination and hard work. And he was willing to do the process. He surrendered to the process, and he was like, all right, cool. This is the work that I need to do. And then when he wanted more money, he needed more money. What did he do? He came to us and he said, what are ways that I can add enough value to where I can earn this much money? It was never, hey, give me more comms, or, hey, hey, I want a base, or I want this or, I want this. It's like, what are ways that I can add value? And that's the attitude, I think, of top performers in the long run is people who come in and go, like, okay, what do I need to do to get this? And having it posing as a question and a problem instead of more of a statement and having the resolve. I mean, at one stage when that kid was doing, like, $500 a day.
It was an insane.
I think he did 700 in one day.
I'd have to ask him. I can't remember the stats, but it was impressive. And that's it. You've asked that question. Then you've taken the action to do enough volume to make that worthwhile.
Yeah. And then we have a look at other success stories, like will, big success story, top performer, for sure. Ups and downs. Started off coming and had to learn a totally new way of selling through us. And now he's earning a lot of money. Road as well. Had never really done sales before in this sort of environment. He'd done some sales, like selling mobile phones and cell phones and stuff. And then from there, totally surrendered to the process. Had a phenomenal attitude. Now he's a very successful sales rep. Tony, Same thing. Bill, Same thing. Sean Wright. Same Thing like all these guys who are successful who are making 10, 20, 30, 40, $50,000 a month are all guys who enjoy the learning component, apply it diligent students, and have good attitudes. Not everyone's attitude is perfect, but I mean, everyone's a human being. So you know what I mean? But like, they're guys who want to be the best and are willing to do what it takes in order to get there and don't see people who are doing better than them as like, oh, they're just in a better, you know, this, this and this. It's like, wow, that guy must work really hard. Like, when I see a guy driving a brand new Lamborghini, I don't think he's a quit. I go, that guy must be really good at something. I wonder what he's really good at. Because you don't get that kind of money to buy those kind of cars unless you're very good at something.
Selling drugs. It's. It's funny how everyone always assumes that, right? But it's not true. Chances are he's a very good businessman or investor.
Right. We just bought semi, a $300,000 car. It isn't here yet, but I'm sure when I get out of that dressed ing t shirt and jeans and covered in tattoos, I'm sure people are going to be going, look at this.
Oh, probably.
It's like, sweet. Yeah, I do sell things. Yeah. The fact that when everybody asks me whatever I do, I go, I'm in sales. They go, what do you sell? I go, don't worry about it.
It's funny, I was saying this the other day. It's like everyone was, you know, especially when they walk past the office. So what do you guys do? Oh, we sell stuff. Oh, okay. You always get that. Ah, it's like, we sell stuff.
What do you sell?
I guess I'll let you.
Bit of this and a bit of that.
Everything.
Yeah, everything to everyone, always.
I was at the casino with Marco, like, and Dan a few months ago, a guy was, you know, with Marco dressed in head to toe with the Versace and just sitting there in jeans and a shirt and we had some cigars and stuff, and he just went shopping at Dior and bought a pair of jeans. I think this guy's like, oh, what do you guys say? We're like, oh, you know, we sell stuff. He's like, oh, yeah, I see one of those, like $300 jeans. He's like, yeah, okay, I guess it was funny. But every time $3,000 jeans it's crazy. Like, the psychology behind people and the assumptions that they make, which ties into this. Like, the psychology of those guys that aren't at that top level. What do you think? Like, those guys that, you know, they might not have the. That natural skill set, but I didn't, though.
I was selling, man. Sucked at it. So you heard me. Sell. Like, back in the day, I was garbage.
It wasn't that bad.
Just terrible.
I mean, you compare my old business.
Partner, Lenny was the sales guy in our relationship. I was the marketing guy. He was the sales guy. I had all the marketing ideas, and then I would just. Everything would go to him. And then, like, I had to get better at it because we were opening gyms, so I got thrown into that role. We sucked at it. Both of us did. Right? You were way better than me to begin with. And then from there. Yeah, well, because you did it more at that other wasteland, and so. And then, like, from there, we just got thrown into the mix where we, like, we were opening a Rockdale gym. We're like, I guess we're the sales guys now. It was nuts. And we just went and opened it, and then we sold whatever we sold at 200 people.
Well, it's funny. I told this story the other day. When we did it, we sold, like, the numbers are a little bit off. We ended up with, like, 240. I ended up on, I think, 124. And you had, like, 119 or something. And I ended up just in front of you, and I was like, 20 or so in front of you.
Day. That's a lot of sales. 30 days.
It was funny because, like, you were Jean Script that you just texted everyone that. That didn't buy, offering it to them for a quarter of the price just to beat me. I was like. So I was just calling everyone I could on that last day.
Amazing.
Yeah. You caught up, like, 20 spots, like, instantly. I was like, that's not fair.
20 spots, but only worth five. Five people worth of money.
Yeah, exactly. We should have done it on cash collected. But, yeah, like, I mean, back at that stage, I was selling, like, eight, nine hours a day, you know?
Yeah.
We sold, like, 20 leads a day.
You probably may not realize, but you were like. You were a really good sales guy. Like, remember when we was the fit. Remember was fitness sales sniper, and you were selling that hormone program in the U.S. yeah.
Crush that one.
$3,000 for a hormone program. You were savaging it.
Yeah.
And then. And then something happened.
Shifts.
And then all of a sudden, I just became, like, really good at the fitness stuff.
Yeah, I think you just go confident and then you found Jeremy and then.
No, it was way after. When I found Jeremy.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, but like, I was doing the fitness stuff and then all of a sudden I just started to be able to sell 60, 70 people a month. And, like, nobody said no to me. And I just started getting my fitness script down and I was like, all right, I can do this. And then we moved into the marketing. Selling marketing.
Yeah, I think like, confidence and you got a bit. A bit more that you kind of lacking before is you just started slapping people around super hard like that. That's. That's what happened.
And because I listened to some of the calls, I was like, oh, they're terrible. Terrible, but terrible.
Like a sledgehammer. And then like, because you started getting results, it like compounded onto your confidence. So you went in with like, I'm closing everyone. Just with that attitude.
Yeah, like, that also could be the help. The attitude of, like, I can close anybody.
Exactly.
And then not caring when you don't.
Yeah, that's. That changed later. Like, that didn't come yet. But it was funny because, like, I remember being on those calls and still closing at a really high rate and actually thinking to myself, I have no idea what the I'm doing or saying, I'll just wing it. Having absolutely no idea, like, what the questions I was asking were designed to do, but somehow got away with it purely.
It didn't have a script. How crazy is that? No, never didn't have a script. Did you change without a script F. Cking? No.
Yeah, it's crazy. Anyway, back on track. So, like, to the lower performing people. So if you don't have the skill set, like, the mindset is so much more important because once you decide that I'm just going to make heaps of sales, you just do it right, regardless of skill set. Because if you listen to our calls back then you'd be like, how did that guy.
Oh, garbage. I mean, I remember when I was opening this gym in Chatswood and we hired four people and basically the way that we used to do it is like, there'd be me and then three or four trainers and we'd order the sales and. And they were so bad at selling because none of them ever sold everything in their life that, like, I was like, right. To catch up, I was like, right, you guys just tools down, like, beat it and I'm going to do it all. And then I got James to help Out. And then I was like, man. And it was. I was in the locker and I was competing against gyms because we had four gyms opening at once. I was competing against a whole team and I got. I won. Like, we made the most amount of sales and it was just me. And I literally remember dialing nine hours a day, six days a week.
It was pure.
Yeah, no auto dialer, no nothing. Again, they let us do that anyway.
Terrible business decisions. Terrible.
For the clothes. I owe would have tripled the revenue of the company anyway.
I know.
Yeah, I remember. I was just like, okay. I figured out, okay, if I get 100 dials, I don't remember the stats, but it was like 100 dials equals this many conversations. This many conversations equals this many sales. I need to make this many sales per day. I was like, sweet. All I have to do is extrapolate that out and I'm good to go.
Then you looked at the numbers, you're like.
And so I think I had to make six sales a day. Yeah, I think it was something along those lines because my KPI was 250. No, it was more. My KPI was 250 and we had 21 days to do it. So I had to make, I think like 11.5 sales per day.
Do you remember how many you made total?
Oh, yeah, I made like just under 250. I just missed KPI. 3 weeks by myself on that one.
Not good enough.
But then I savage the next round and got like 180 to the next round.
You probably should have trained the guys better.
Oh, mate, they were so bad and so lazy. Especially that's. Especially that guy whose name starts with an S. Right? So lazy. Yeah, starts with a seven ends in Ashton. So lazy. So they were all lazy.
Right?
But they had no, like, they had no reason not to be.
Exactly. One wasn't a sales guy at all.
They were trainers. Never should have put him in position.
And they made them do sales. It's like, could you imagine like one hating that?
That changed. That changed. After that it was like, no more trainers doing sales. Then we moved.
That's when they got them to hire people and they hired Marco.
That was rough.
Anyway, let's get back on track because we've got.
But no, it's not. It makes sense. It's because, like, I was in a sales position and I had a KPI. Instead of whinging and bitching about it, I just went, well, I guess this is what I have to do. I just did it.
Yeah. Could you you know what's funny?
I didn't have a skill set. I didn't have anything. I had an Excel spreadsheet that was updated by somebody else. Not a Google sheet, an Excel spreadsheet that was emailed to me once a day with the new leads. And then I had to reformat that to be readable because they were morons. Couldn't format a spreadsheet correctly, or couldn't figure out that you can just put it on Google and have a zap that does it automatically. I don't know how we had a person who's on staff, as a Westerner on staff doing that every day. It was fucking outrageous. It was still the same way today.
You know what's funny? We meet so many people that are in the exact same position as you, and we look at them and go, are you stupid? How do you let this happen? And it's only just hit me. It's like, well, I kind of get why now, when you've never had anyone there, like, running that business that knows what they're doing or can actually teach you how things should be done. You systematically suck because you had no idea how to train a bunch of sales dudes, and you inherited a bunch of guys that weren't sales guys. And that's.
Yeah, but then as soon as we started Fitness Sales Sniper, we do. We were like, there's gotta be a better way. And then immediately found an auto dialer. And then I immediately put together a training portal. Remember in that Facebook group, I put together a training portal in the unit section. I shot all these videos and I was. I wrote a script. I was like, this is how you do it. The first thing I did was training videos, a script and an auto dialer. And it was just like, game changer.
You know what's funny? They still use the videos that we made for them as the training tool, that stuff.
Oh, really? Sales garbage.
Someone told me I had a guy maybe 3 months ago message me. He's like, oh, I work at this company now. I says, do you work for them? I saw you in there. I was like, nope. I was like, they must be still using it, because if I look back on those videos, just like, I don't know why I said what I said, because that makes no sense.
I still own. I still own like 5% of that company.
So sucks for you. Anyway, I'll invoice you for all my super.
I feel sorry for him these days.
Yeah.
Anyway, gone past being angry and to be pity.
So we know what a good Sales rep does. What about the guys that, like, what do you come and see as wiping.
Out the rest of the sniffing little. Don't do anything about their problems. There you go. That's it.
I also think that guys do do things. They just do the wrong things, right? We got a lot of guys that can't fix stupid. They'll. They'll join any pq. They'll do stuff with us. And the biggest thing that I. I see guys missing is, like, the conceptualization and the understanding of what they're doing. Like, I mentioned, I had no idea what I was doing back then. But you see people, like, they'll try and copy you. They're trying.
Yeah. Okay. But this is the thing, though. Like, they don't try hard. So this is. This is the thing. This is why I get really people. No, because I don't actually try. Like, when I can't underestimate, like, it's so important to actually try. So, like, when I was running any pq, printed out that script, and I read it thousands of times, thousands and thousands. I was like, just read it over and over and over and never even used it in a sales call for, like, three months. Because I was like, I'm not good enough at this yet. I'm not good enough. I have a system. I had my six call close, you know, Sorry, My. My six question close. I had that system that was working, had flaws, but I was like, I know that works. I can't transition.
Oh, I remember that.
Yeah. And I just. Man, I just, like, just immersed myself in it and was, like, practicing and practicing and practicing. And then, like, was asking Jeremy heaps of questions and like, I was really immersed into it, and I really, really tried to memorize it and then understand. And then from there, like, I just did, like, a year's worth of training in two months because I just immersed myself so deeply into it. I watched that portal, the seventh level portal, which is way less comprehensive than what it is now. And I just watched it and watched it and watched it and watched it. The little back book of questions. I printed it out. I read it and read it and read it and read it. The flow charts, printed them up, put them in my office or the cards that have, like, the sequence of the sale. Right. Memorized them, flashcards and then put them up in my office. And as I went through sales, I was like, okay, connecting question, situation, question, problem, solution, awareness that had my script, had it up, Practice it, practiced it, practiced it, practiced it. And then I got good at it. And it's like I asked people, I'm like, hey, how many times have you like when we did the internship call, I was like, okay, you guys have been in, you've had this script now for eight weeks. Who here has read it 50 times? One guy raised their hand. I was like, what the wrong with you guys? And I got real angry. I go, you guys like, are you sales professionals or are you sales amateurs? I was like, what would you say to a pitcher that is trying to get recruited as a professional baseball pitcher and just hasn't thrown a ball ing six weeks because he couldn't be bothered? It's pathetic.
It's also like the typical people that have the time to go through that.
But dude, like you just print it out, read it 20 times in bed before you go to bed. It honestly takes 5 minutes to read the script.
Yeah, like for me, repetition and immersion works good. Like if, if I, I'll work well for everybody. Yeah, it does. I listen to books on Blinkist, which is just like a recap. I'm like, yep, okay, I like the concept of this. And then I'll listen to the full book. And then if I like that full book, I'm like, there's a lot more to learn from this. I'll get like a hard copy, highlight it and write notes. And then from there it's like the third time I've read it. Everything starts to seek in and it starts to connect and that's where we'll come up with ideas. Yeah, it's just find out you want.
Yeah, like the guys just no one tries. Like if I'm perfectly honest, we could break down the guys who are successful and the guys who aren't by who tries to. And the guys who don't, don't try. They just don't try. They think they do and they don't. Like just the case. Like snipers, man. Like when I was in snipers used to shoot.
I imagine it was a lot like.
Unbelievable amount, like tedious amounts of shooting. Right. Especially when you're in like an events. Like when you're in like a counterterrorism role, right? Like when you get into the TAG tactical assault group, like the validation is you have to be able to shoot someone in between the triangle between the eyes and the nose. Walking at a hundred meters while walking.
Like you walking or them walking?
Me walking.
Yeah. Okay, right.
That's difficult at a hundred meters with an M4 that's shot, bro. That is harder than any thousand meter lying or 5000 meter line. As a difficult shot. And you have to nail that every time, first time. So like, you practice it tens of thousands of times, like. But so by the time you get to validation and by the time you have to do it in real life, like, it's just instinctive.
Yeah.
And it's like, that's how I learned, like everything in the army that we did, we just learned by, hey, do this a. And have somebody watch you do it.
Yeah. And point out where you're not going. Right.
Because like, if you're shooting, like, I'll give you an example. If you're shooting at 2 kilometers, right. I'll use 1 kilometer because 1 kilometer is to me, not that difficult a shot. Right. But I'll tell you the tolerances, right? If Your barrel is 1 millimeter to the left of the very, very center of that target, 1 millimeter. But I'll tell you the tolerances, right? If Your barrel is 1 millimeter to the left of the very, very center of that target, 1 millimeter, you will miss that target by 1 meter. At 2Ks, you miss it by 2. At 100 meters, you miss it by a centimeter, right? So you go from here to here to here. The same barrel position. So you can imagine 1 millimeter at the end of a barrel is not very much. So if you shoot someone in the face at a thousand meters, you've had like a nanometer of variation. That crazy. The only way that you get that good is by doing that an awful lot. Because you got to shoot in between heartbeats. Because when you're lying down and your heartbeats, it moves you up and down you go. So you go slowly.
All right.
Like it's. It's pretty scientific. And then the wind and everything, like.
Beta blockers and stuff like that to reduce heart rate when shooting.
No, you just breathe.
Control.
It becomes like a really rhythm. You just kind of get into the rhythm of it. You just know how to do it. And everyone has different shooting positions because I'm super flexible, so I can have really, really flat shooting positions. Other people, like Mooney in the other offices, the anti flexible. So he has to have really different shooting positions because he has to lie flat. There's so much stuff. But like, when we'll sort of wrap it up here. Cause we've been going for a while. But like, I honestly feel if you have a good hard look at yourself right now, and if you're running a sales team or if you're a member of a sales team and you're like, man, like, why is that guy crushing it. It's like, well, what are you actually doing to crush it?
Mm.
Or are you just a whinging, sniffing, little. That doesn't really work that hard. And that's fine. You're more than welcome to be that way. There's nothing wrong with that, to be honest.
It's just sometimes you want more.
Exactly. And some people want to want more, you know, but it's like, are you actually really ready to do it? You know, like, to be the guy in the lead is hard, like, because there's no one setting pace, you know? And so, like, you're running against yourself. Yeah. And so. Yeah. Like, I think that's the real take home is, you know, the difference between guys who are crushing and guys who aren't. First of all, skill set. Fine. You can buy skill set. You can learn it. You just got to really get into it. The real thing is just the people who really, really try, I think. And you can see that because, you know, like, how. Dude, how much does Marco read? Like, it is insatiable.
He reads more than me.
It's insatiable.
Yeah. It's crazy.
Like, it's madness.
Too much.
It is. He develops too much. Same with Bill. Bill does shitload, man.
Yeah. To the point where it always comes negative because there's so many.
Josh Sweedums has dissected every single sales call and training I've ever done, and he has his own master document of all of my resources that he's collated. That's why I like his style of selling so much. That's why I speak so highly of him. It's completely upset, subconscious, but he is me.
Yeah. Yeah.
He sells exactly how I sell.
I think, like, you just got to work in that. That muscle memory, like on those scripts, as you mentioned, because you need to be able to relay that when the pressure's on, I. E. Someone gives you an objection, that's hard to overcome.
Yeah. Like, what I want you to do.
To go to those.
Yeah. What I want you to do is if you're struggling for the next month, work as hard as you possibly can. Work as hard as you think the person who admires the most does.
Yeah.
Do what they do and then have a look at your results, and I guarantee you they'll be pretty good. But on that, I think we've had enough. That was a good rant.
That's a good point to start.
Don't forget to, like, subscribe and notification bell.
Yeah, no, I don't give a slam for now.
I slapped a guy around today?
Yeah, I have multiple, so.
All right, guys, have a good one. Bye.
Put that coffee down. Coffee's for closers only.
