#336 Fake it till you make it is bs

Although I’ve used the term “Fake it till you make it,” I never liked the “fake it” part bc that means you don’t fully believe in what you’re saying or portraying. I don’t want to fake anything but I am willing to embody it. ⭐️Today’s episode rips a page from James Clear’s new book “Atomic Habits” & in the book he writes an effective way to build a new habit is to embody it.⭐️Thanks for catching the show.

#335 That ain’t keeping it real

A common term in many cultures is “keeping it real,” which basically means to not forget where you came from. When you go back home to your old stomping grounds the notion is to pick up right where you left off - hanging with the same people doing the same dumb sh*t....and your life can all change in an instant simply because you were trying to “keep it real.” ⭐️A special thanks to Charlamagne Tha God’s team for sending me a copy of the book “Shook One” buy it on Amazon or your favorite book ret...

#333 The price & cost of your beliefs

I’m sensitive to when Life whispers to me & as I was going back through a book I read called “Fearvana” a question stood out to me that I didn’t even highlight...”What have your beliefs cost you?” Waking the next morning I found another blurb from another article about “beliefs,” so it made me ask the question, “What’s the difference between price & cost...& what does it mean as it relates to my beliefs?” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you for listening to the show.

#331 8 ways to increase confidence

If anyyyyyy gift would be on a salesperson’s Christmas list it’d be the gift 🎁 of confidence-especially when you’re losing or that stage in between winning & losing- where the customer isn’t saying no, but they ain’t saying yes either?

#330 Don’t assume the sale

Consultants will tell you to just run in there and act like you own the place...be bold, brash, and take hold of the situation...& when you do, your customers will kneel down and beg you to buy. All you need to do is assume the sell and you can bag the deal....well that may be fine & good if the last 8 customers bought from you. Today’s episode deals with the times you’re not on a winning streak bc it’s hard to assume the sale when all you’ve done recently is lost. 👉👉Thank you for checking out t...

#327 Stay relevant...let others worry about remembering

At 80 years young, Coach George Raveling says that every day he has a choice to make: contribute or be another statistic. Coach chooses to contribute by staying relevant. Today so many people you once watched, followed, or know personally fight so hard to be remembered by waiving their social flag...they're so worried about being forgotten that the only things they talk about are past accomplishments. They desperately want to be remembered when your only focus for today should be, "How can I con...

#327 Selling’s not a team sport

In Carol Dweck's book, "Mindset," tennis legend John McEnroe said that he used to throw temper tantrums during a match because his mind was so fixed...so rigid, that he didn't know how to regain his footing once he began to lose...so he did the only thing he knew to do...yell, scream, and smash rackets. By his own admission, he wished he would've instead played a team sport in order to mask his deficiencies and weaknesses. Sales, like Life is not a team sport. Sure, you do need others, but the p...

#325 No one wants your percentiles

A mother took her young daughter to the doctor for a checkup and when he finished his battery of tests he pridefully said, "Your daughter is in the 75 percentile range." Curious, the daughter asked what did that mean and when he explained it to her, he failed to tell her everything. Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

#322 Become familiar with being unfamiliar

In the 20 yrs of playing in the NBA, Kobe Bryant said the most tired he'd ever been in a game was in his final one...but he had felt that kind of fatigue before while training out on the track and because he was familiar with the feeling before, he was able to push through and cap his career off by scoring 61 points. Today's episode is a challenge to push through when the pain seems unbearable...when you don't feel like you can take one more step, make one more call, or catch one more customer.....
