Greatest Sales Success
- Where there is chaos, there is cash flow.
- J. Massey is not a college graduate, and he wasn’t looking to become a real estate investor. He was looking to eat!
- Between 10 PM to 2 or 3 AM, he’d print up flyers and walk the streets while listening to audiobooks.
- Calls would start coming in early in the morning.
- By learning in-person, low-cost strategies to get business, including referral strategies, he built a business that has enabled him to grow in any market, in any economy, anywhere in the world.
- He was helping people for free, and someone asked him to “teach him everything he knew.”
- “If I charge them money they’ll leave me alone.” WRONG!
- He came up with a big number to get the guy to say “no,” and the guy said “yes.”
- Then he enjoyed teaching and helping people.
- Then he got full with private coaching, so he created group coaching at a more affordable price. T
- hen he had more fun in the group. Becomes “Youstress” not “Distress.” (Tim Ferriss)
