Did You Know I'm a Public Speaker?

As you know, I've written a humorous book on sales, titled "You're Going To Be Great At This!" And before I wrote the book I began working on my speaking skills at Toastmasters. Since the book's release, I've spoken to civic groups, teachers, and even had some seminars. I think I'd like to do  more.

So I'm looking for groups who need a speaker. "What kind of groups?" you ask. Since my talks are based on sales, marketing and networking, my favorite groups are people who are just getting into sales, such as realtors, insurance agents and network marketers. If you are someone who falls into one of these categories, or a state or regional manager of an organization, please contact me. I'd love to talk to you and find out how I can speak to your sales team.

But what if your group doesn't do sales? That's okay too. You see, we all are in sales everyday, trying to get family members, co-workers and others to "buy in" to our ideas or agendas. I enjoy talking to groups who aren't in sales professionally, but love learning about selling techniques to use as life hacks.

No matter if you have a group of sales pros or rookies or even those who don't sell for a living, I can still share actionable insights for you group.

Introducing the "You're Going To Be Great At This!" Podcast

I was pretty surprised when I saw that my last blog post was several months ago. Time really does fly when you're having fun, or in my case, just having a busy workload. In the last few months I've been on the road for an approximate total of 9 weeks. Needless to say I get less than motivated to work in a hotel room after selling insurance for 8 hours, so blogging isn't on my "to do" list. While driving in my car during these trips I try to make my time productive my listening to podcasts on business and marketing. I'm not sure if someone was trying to tell me something but over the course of a week or so, I heard 4 episodes on how starting a podcast can help boost your business. After mulling this over and considering my options, I decided to take the plunge and start one myself. I've had a YouTube channel for a while which is fine, but I wanted to do something a little different. So I decided to start the "You're Going To Be Great At This!"...

Changing My Scheduling Calendar For 2025

This blog usually has actionable sales tips and advice to help you succeed in your business. This time, I wanted to take a look at another part of your business, which is scheduling appointments or sales calls or whatever you need to schedule.  Having a scheduling calendar that your prospects can make your job so much easier. Instead of calling back and forth to pin a time to meet down, you can let your prospect/client pick their own time. According to FinancesOnline.com, online scheduling can lead to 26% more customers, so sharing your calendar is a real no-brainer. I have a Google calendar that I use to book appointments, but I have also been using Calendly and sharing it on my website and social media. The two calendars are supposed to sync up to avoid double bookings, but recently I discovered an issue.  I had blocked out a couple of days on my Google calendar for a business conference, but Calendly was still showing those days as available. After trying to find a way to f...

Your Sales Call Autopsy

A friend of mine recently did some contract work for a company. The project took several weeks and the work was much more detailed than my friend anticipated. Not only was the work itself difficult, but so were the other people who he had to deal with while completing the designs and other specifications.  When he was done he did something very important. He waited a few days and then took an objective look at the entire process, where he discovered what worked well, what didn't work well and the lessons he learned in the process. He even posted all of this information in a "bullet point" style on social media. With that information, his future projects will be somewhat easier if he runs into the same issues. Many people in sales and marketing fail to do this. If something works well, they just move on to the next deal. But if they hit a snag and fail to get the sale, they complain about something, usually the client or the working conditions, without having an honest ass...
