Today, I will go a little deeper into the popular episode with Dan Horwich I did last week, where he spoke about creating a virtual referral engine. I see the same mistakes made over and over, so I will walk you through those mistakes so that you can correct them and fly!
Dan Horwich is joining me today to talk about scaling his business with referrals and explain how you can do the same thing. That is one of the most under-utilized capabilities both on LinkedIn and in business, and it could help you cut down the sales cycle exponentially, increase warm leads, and blow your business up.
Today, I will give you a glimpse into some behavior designs. In the past, I used to get super-excited about lots of things. And I also took on the owner-entrepreneur role, where my focus was not only on sales but also on multiple other parts of my business. Then I did something simple and actionable. I will be sharing what I did with you today. It will help you improve if you are an owner, CEO, head of revenue, or a sales executive.

When you are in a situation where you don’t have a ton of money to spend on lead gen and there isn’t a lot of demand gen, you have to get very resourceful and sometimes you end up creating some really great processes that can get you amazing results. That’s what I’m talking about today.
Today, I want to share something with you that I struggled with for about nine years. Every year, right after the budget, after you get the quota from your reps, and if you are a CEO after you get your numbers from your investors, it was always a hard time for me until I started to figure out how to manage it. In this episode, I will share how I survived.
Today, I’m going to talk about something that hit me like a sledgehammer about growing your network in an exponential way. I started doing it from a place of service, and it has taken off for me.

I’ve been paying particularly close attention to some conversations with really high level sales leaders on Clubhouse lately, and most have been saying the same thing. All the automation that we have worked so hard to put in place over the last several years, isn’t working all that well anymore.

Do you change your goals? Or do you change your identity? That question has been going round in my head because, for a long time, I was setting big, hairy, audacious goals. I think I got conditioned to do that based on the environment I was in before starting my own company. And I did it because I believed that if you don’t put up massive goals for yourself, you’re not trying hard enough, you’re not pushing yourself, and you’re not doing what you need to do to take yourself to the next level.
We have Rand Fishkin joining us today. Rand is the former CEO of Moz, which he co-founded with his mother. He has written a book called Lost and Founder, and he is currently the co-founder and CEO of Sparktoro.
Today, I’m excited to talk to you about why everyone needs to have two Dream 100s. Throughout my career, I focused on one and then on the other. Now that I am trying to grow and scale a business, I am working on both. The same thing can apply to you, whether you are a business owner, a CEO, a revenue leader, or a sales executive. This method is critical to sales growth in any size company at any stage.

Today, we have a special “Best of” episode to highlight some of my favorite takeaways from 3 of my first 30 episodes.
Have you ever thought about why you are drawn to certain people and put off by others? Well, these reasons for the different reactions are the same for everyone, but the personality traits that draw us in or push us away vary from person to person.
The problem we are addressing today is one that I have seen over and over again. Companies that I consult with on their sales tell me that the solution they are offering doesn’t really have an ROI. This blows my mind because companies don’t normally pay money for things that are just “nice to have”. So, I’m always curious what kind of revenue the company that I’m consulting with has. So, I ask and they tell me their numbers.
Pre-Covid, every sales person wanted to pack as many prospects as possible into a room to give them a unique experience. Covid has changed everything, and trying to replace in person events with virtual events isn’t exactly a straightforward proposition. In this situation, one plus one does not equal 2.
We’re almost at the end of the year! Today I want to talk to you about whether you are interested or committed for 2021.

Recently, in some reading, I was introduced to the principle of the gap or the gain. It’s a concept presented by Daniel Sullivan. The gap or the gain is how you really look at things as a whole. So do you look at things in your life as a gap or a gain? It’s about looking for the positive or the negative in life.
Alex McNaughten is wise beyond his years when it comes to helping companies scale. He’s got a track record of success and worked with companies to scale their revenue and their sales techniques. Alex lives in New Zealand, where Sales isn’t really a profession. As a result, it’s difficult for many New Zealand based companies to scale to multimillion dollar revenues and beyond. Alex has helped over 70 companies in total and more than 50 just this year!
Most companies have the bulk of their revenue spread across the top 5%-10% of their customer base. This can be seen as a risk to meeting revenue goals if something happens to one of those big clients.
Being a sales nerd through and through, Todd Caponi is completely fascinated by the intersection of behavioral science and sales. His entire career has been around how to take behavioral and decision science and overlay it with transparency. Why do 82% of us go right to the negative reviews on a product before positive reviews. And why do products with negative reviews sell better than products that only have 5 star reviews?
This past year as I’ve started my business, I’ve tried a bunch of different things in order to be successful. I’ve realized over the years that even if I have success, sometimes I still hate what I am doing. So as I build my business, I’ve worked my ass off on the webinars, interviews, articles, courses and summits I have done, I have found that I am extremely passionate about certain things and some of the things I’ve done in business, I have absolutely hated.
