“The biggest thing for me as a salesperson is to remember that you are responsible for the result of your communication. You are responsible for all your communication because you want to be. You need to get a point across. It doesn't serve you to say she misunderstood me. He didn't get me. That's not what I meant. They misinterpreted. None of that serves you.

“The number one driver of employee safety engagement, performance improvement, quality, and productivity is not a t-shirt, a ball cap, a pizza party, nor is it a bigger 4011k plan or even working from home. The single biggest driver of employee morale, engagement, and mental health is when my boss looks me in the eye and sincerely says, ‘Bill, here’s what you did for safety. You reported that near hit. You capped the rebar, and here’s why that matters. You let one of your coworkers go home safe

“Anytime a salesperson is in front of a buyer, that buyer is asking themselves why, based off all the options available to me, should I buy from you? And if we can’t answer that question in a real, meaningful, impactful way, we are driving them to a price decision that we don’t want them to get to anyway.
