This week has been an amazing week. I feel like I have had so many fruitful conversations with people and some of the guys who I have been working with have had some pretty Crazy results ..shout out to TJ and Chris in particular.
I wanna share an excerpt of a conversation I had with a Closer who is looking to make the full transition into sales from her Full time job… In this part of the chat I reminded myself why I am congruent to have these hard calls with people…
Background…
In 2018 I was pissed off and miserable as a sales manager for a big box gym. I had had enough and on my 40th Birthday was ready to hustle, do some cash in hand personal training and had organised my first shift delivering domino’s pizza on a saturday night.
I made the leap and the few days leading up to the first shift I landed my first gig with the then fledgling sales sniper … I was willing to throw fear and ego in the bin in order to move from a place that wasn’t serving me and opportunity arrived …
This isn’t an ego trip for me but wanted to share a message that no matter where we are in our lives.. it’s hustle and not willing to settle that makes the difference…
Recording:
J….Yeah, yeah just don’t think you just can be destitute off the back of it
N:yeah
J:yeah. Doesn’t work like that ,there are going to be opportunities just to make a few dollars. Like when I like when I kind of I sold my gym I went into big box sales It was terrible the money was terrible it was just a false economy you know it was just like you just have to fucking just go around the streets and f**king deliver cards and it was just they were just there doing nothing like all the heavy lifting was done just through like their main high level of marketing whereby they’ll do like a last minute price drop. My job was pointless.
So I just got a load of people together and I said look, would you work with me and what I want to do is small group PT and this was like, This is my 40th birthday All right…..I was working the big boxes f**the king hated it for eating away at my soul. So I spoke to all the guys they say here we support you. And like that night I was actually going to work going for my first shift delivering pizzas for Domino’s . All right. And then Matt rang me and said look like I want you to stop this gig. Life finds a way you know what I mean?
N:Yeah, Wow, that’s amazing. That’s like really that’s so amazing I just like Got What do you call it in English chicken skin no….goosebumps oh, that’s crazy
.
J:Then I was gonna fucking deliver pizzas just to make like 50 quid a week..on my 40th Birthday .. you gotta go there
N:Your life is a life as a strange way of working itself out. It’s just you need to show up.
And thank you for sharing this with me. It’s awesome to you to hear it because like, if it’s possible for one then it’s possible for someone else as well.
J:Yeah.
Hustle on 2021
