When he retired, Deion Sanders told Jerry Rice that he knew what route he was about to run by the way he placed his foot before the ball was snapped. Sanders kept volumes of details on every player he faced. Tony Gonzalez agreed...when he speaks to new NFL players he tells them, “You’re not that special,” at this level everyone is fast & strong. The greatest separator is in the details. The more professional you are the more details you should keep...but why is it usually opposite? Once you g...

New parents are all too familiar with the strains of a new baby. Sleepless nights, confusion, no more “me” time- the Life before is shattered. But you evolve as a new parent...the strains & pains initially become more manageable. Things didn’t get easier...you got better. & this relates to life as a whole. Being a single parent, c...

Hollywood producer Brian Grazer works w/ big named actors & they are short on patience- especially when things go off the rails. He learned early on that even though he’s afraid, he acts fearless- not bc he’s a badass, but bc it keeps him loose. Fear keeps you tight...w/ no action you lose your options & no options = no favorable outcome. Will things go wrong? Yes. But bc you act with intention, you can figure it out and keep moving forward. If you ❤️ today’s episode share it with someone wh...

Personally or Professionally in order to sell your way through life you’ll need the skills of the 7C’s: Communication, Connection, Creativity, Curiosity, Consistency, Continuous learning, flowing with Critic...

The Sales Life Podcast episode #482 “I don’t know where I’m going, but I know exactly how to get there.” I struggled with this phrase, bc my thinking was outcome based not discovery driven.

I couldn't imagine what if would feel like to face a charging lion. Boyd Varty has had plenty of experience with this in the wild. He is a lion tracker and author of "The Lion Tracker's Guide to Life." On his podcast, he told Aubrey Marcus that when you are facing a charging lion, you must stand, step forward, and meet the charge with your presence. A charging lion came so close to Varty, that when he screeched to a halt, the sand flew into Varty's mouth. "The lion must perceive you as dangero...

Ohhhhh no! The word “NEGOTIATE.” Don’t skip this one bc we don’t negotiate strictly as a profession, we all negotiate in every area of your life. “Great negotiating is helping the other side think...if you make this decision, here are some potentialities of making that decision.” Parents w/ kids...Teachers w/students ...Salespeople w/customers...Customers w/ salespeople 😉So many ways to empower you w/ the art of thinking. Never settle, keep selling your way through life. Send in a voice message...

Today I'm playing a clip between lion tracker Boyd Varty (author of the book "A Lion Tracker's Guide To Life") & Aubrey Marcus. (Aubrey's got a good podcast you should check out.) Part of tracking is a "willingness to try new things. Lion trackers know that part of tracking is that you will lose the track and end of on the 'path of not here.'" & that's part of the path :) Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

Most people like success...they’d like to have a leaner body...they’d like to have a fat paycheck...they’d like to have a thriving relationship. But do you really care? Do you pay serious attention to it...do you look for it...do you provide for it...do you give it thought? If you really really cared, you’d be ready for it Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

Social media generates followers, "friends," and connections, but I've never thought about developing an inner circle. I thought inner circles were for the Oprah's, Tyler Perry's, and Warren Buffet's of this world. Melissa Burrow author of "Chasing Bentleys: The power of accountability in achieving your goals" (get the book) designed a powerful checklist on building powerful connections and developing your Inner Circle. Motivational or Inspirational Leaders: These help you see & leverage your ...

This was my 92nd episode I recorded and realized that I’d never published it so it’s been sitting in my drafts for a couple of years. Today is a remix of that episode. 🔥The question time you, “Are you doing what most or few are doing?” If you’re a part of few, you’re in good company. If you’re a part of most, you’re in trouble.

People look at the money I earn in sales & think “I want to do that!” but they only see the results of a story that has taken me 22 years to write... & I’m still writing it. Your elders will tell you there are no shortcuts in life, yet we’re always trying to find the quickest way to be successful yet spared of the pain. The story of how it’s done is the shortcut...but how your story of how it is written requires the long road. That’s why I say, “There are no shortcuts but there are second times ...

When I was hired into sales, the 1rst piece of advice that I got was, "Don't assume anything." Don't assume you know who's a buyer and who's a liar. Don't assume you know if they'll put more money down or take a vehicle with less equipment or higher miles. Think how costly assumptions are to you. Priceless... Experience coupled with assumptions leads to frustration and frustration leads to stress. Think about the times you're stressed out. You're stressed because you've made an appraisal of how ...

Sports psychologist Michael Gervais (he's got a really good podcast called "Finding Mastery") embarked on a 30 mile paddle board competition, but on mile 21 he was disoriented and found himself on his knees. The boat trailing him couldn't help him-otherwise he'd be disqualified, but the boat captain walked to the edge of the boat and yelled out, "GET UP!" "ONE PADDLE!" That was it... Sometimes when we find ourselves on our knees in life, that's all we need. We don't need encouragement...we nee...

"You are the people that you keep." ~Ryan Serhant Who are the people that you keep? Who do you chop it up with the most? Would you want to be like them? If you were like them, would you be giving up the life that you have now or would you be reaching reach up to a level that you'd want to be? Maybe some of the people have been with you since middle school-you've been through the gutters and fire with them...but do they have some place higher to be like you? Are you constantly having to pick th...

There are 3 types of salespeople right now: 1)Those who are waiting for the all clear in order to go back to work 2)Those who believe that things are going to be great “on the other side of this” 3)Those who get better now so when better comes they’re the best. @ChaseJarvis author of "Creative Calling" was one of the best photographers in the world. His business doubled after the 2008 financial crises, because of what he was doing DURING the financial crises. Don't wait for "the other side" ...
