Full transcript
- 0:00I landed my first ever $6,000 per month
- 0:02appointment setting position in 2024
- 0:04while previously having no experience in
- 0:06this industry. Landing this role allowed
- 0:07me to quit my 9-5 that I absolutely
- 0:09hated working as a server at a
- 0:10restaurant. Appointment setting allowed
- 0:12me to unlock complete remote freedom and
- 0:13make money from pretty much anywhere in
- 0:15the world. I've logged my entire journey
- 0:16on this YouTube channel from when I
- 0:17first quit my 9-5 to start appointment
- 0:19setting, which started my entire
- 0:20high-ticket sales journey. Since that
- 0:22point, I've been a top setter in the
- 0:23space, I've been a top closer in the
- 0:24space making 30 to 40,000 dollars per
- 0:26month in pure commissions, and also
- 0:28started a seven-figure recruitment
- 0:29company that trains and hires
- 0:30high-ticket sales reps for some of the
- 0:32biggest offers in the space. So, in this
- 0:33video, I'm going to show you guys how to
- 0:34land your first appointment setter role
- 0:35in 2026 even if you have no experience
- 0:37or pretty much no idea what you're doing
- 0:39because I did it myself. I've also
- 0:40helped hundreds of people that had no
- 0:41idea what appointment setting was land
- 0:43their first role and quit their 9-5 to
- 0:44do it full-time. I'm going to give you
- 0:45guys an exact 14-day roadmap on what you
- 0:48need to do step-by-step to do this with
- 0:49no experience. Step one is going to be
- 0:51acquiring the skill set of appointment
- 0:53setting. Step two is going to be finding
- 0:54an influencer or online business to work
- 0:56for. Step three is going to be nailing
- 0:57the interview and what you need to do
- 0:59for next steps a top performer in that
- 1:01role. I've gotten hundreds of DMs from
- 1:03people that have watched my YouTube
- 1:04channel saying free videos on this
- 1:05channel alone have allowed them to land
- 1:06their first job opportunity and make
- 1:08their first dollar online. So, the only
- 1:09thing I ask from you guys is take this
- 1:10video seriously, get caffeinated, take
- 1:12notes, and actually watch this video
- 1:14till the end. A lot of people in the
- 1:15high-ticket sales space spread
- 1:16misinformation because they never
- 1:17actually were high-ticket closers or
- 1:19setters. They're just selling you a
- 1:20lifestyle in order to sell you a course
- 1:22or something like that online. So, get a
- 1:23pen and paper out, let's get into it.
- 1:25All right, step one, acquiring the skill
- 1:26set. Everybody overcomplicates it, but
- 1:28this is what you actually need. First,
- 1:29you have to understand what a setter
- 1:31really does. As a setter, your entire
- 1:32job is just being a filter. You qualify
- 1:35the leads that have showed interest in
- 1:36an online product. Your job isn't to
- 1:38close them, it's to get them to a six
- 1:39out of 10 so the closer can close them
- 1:41and collect the payment. You're making
- 1:42sure the people you book on the closer's
- 1:44calendar have money and they're ready to
- 1:45go. Now, the skill set itself comes down
- 1:47to two things, starting conversations
- 1:49and asking the right questions. You're
- 1:50not memorizing a 40-page script or
- 1:52learning 19 different objection handles.
- 1:54You're opening a conversation with a
- 1:56warm lead that already showed interest
- 1:57in a product and you're trying to get
- 1:58these three things out of them. You're
- 1:59trying to find out if they have money, a
- 2:01problem that you can solve with the
- 2:02product, and a real desire to buy. So,
- 2:04how you're going to learn the skill sets
- 2:05and how to know what questions to ask on
- 2:06these calls, I'm going to give you a
- 2:07step-by-step. First is find a setting
- 2:09script that you can reliably use and go
- 2:11over with hundreds of times. I'm going
- 2:13to give you guys a free gift down below.
- 2:14I'm going to drop my appointment setting
- 2:15script that I've personally used to
- 2:17close over $10 million in the
- 2:18high-ticket sales space and it's what
- 2:19all my students use inside of my paid
- 2:21program. This has the best openers and
- 2:23exactly what you're supposed to say to
- 2:24qualify these prospects. So, instead of
- 2:26going online and trying to find some
- 2:27random script, I'm just going to give
- 2:28you guys the best script known in the
- 2:30game. Step two is go to ChatGPT and open
- 2:32up a new chat. Paste in the prompt
- 2:34something similar to this. I want to do
- 2:35some mock appointment setting calls with
- 2:37you. I want you to act like a lead who
- 2:38showed interest in an offer and run a
- 2:40mock setting conversation using my
- 2:41script.
- 2:42>> [music]
- 2:42>> Push back, go cold, get busy, and all
- 2:44the stuff that a real lead would do to
- 2:45help me master the setting script. Now,
- 2:47there's an option where you can
- 2:48literally talk to ChatGPT, go back and
- 2:50forth, do 20 of these per day until you
- 2:52know the script like the back of your
- 2:53hand. That's it. Once you can run a
- 2:55qualifying conversation without sounding
- 2:56like a robot, you have now acquired the
- 2:58skill set of setting. Most people charge
- 3:00$2,000 online to teach appointment
- 3:02setting, and it's literally the easiest
- 3:03thing in the entire world. Also, if you
- 3:05guys want to hear a live appointment
- 3:06setting call so you can know what a top
- 3:07performer actually sounds like on the
- 3:08phone, I have a free 2-hour course where
- 3:10I talk about everything appointment
- 3:11setting. I go super in-depth and you
- 3:13guys can watch that after this video.
- 3:14I'll put it in the description. All
- 3:15right, step two is finding an offer or
- 3:17influencer to work for. Once you have
- 3:18the skill set, all you need is an
- 3:20influencer to work for and a list of
- 3:21leads to call. The first thing you have
- 3:22to understand is where do most of these
- 3:24influencers find appointment setters in
- 3:25the first place? And as someone that has
- 3:27hired hundreds of these appointment
- 3:28setters for my own offers and other info
- 3:30offers, I can [music] confidently tell
- 3:31you that 90% of hires come from
- 3:33word-of-mouth referrals. There are so
- 3:34many people that are not good at sales
- 3:36DMing random influencers, sending their
- 3:37resumes out to thousands of places, and
- 3:39almost 90% of the time they always get
- 3:41ignored. Rather than if I go to dinner
- 3:42with one of my buddies who's in business
- 3:44and ask for an appointment setter, I can
- 3:45directly place one of my reps inside of
- 3:47my program onto his offer. But, that
- 3:48doesn't mean it's not impossible. So, if
- 3:50you want to try it on your own, I'm
- 3:51going to teach you guys exactly how.
- 3:52First thing is if you have no
- 3:53experience, it makes sense if you
- 3:55already have knowledge about the
- 3:56industry that you're about to work into.
- 3:57So, if you already know about fitness,
- 3:59try to apply to a fitness role. If you
- 4:00already know about AI, try to apply to
- 4:02AI influencers. The offer you actually
- 4:04work for matters a lot more than your
- 4:05skill set because if you already have
- 4:06prior knowledge in the industry, you'll
- 4:07probably do well as a sales rep even if
- 4:09you aren't the best at sales yet. So,
- 4:11what does a great offer actually look
- 4:12like so you can identify it before you
- 4:13start sending applications? Here's the
- 4:15criteria that I use. Number one is
- 4:16they're doing real revenue. You want an
- 4:18offer that's already doing at least
- 4:19200,000 per month because that tells you
- 4:21that they actually know what they're
- 4:22doing and they have enough lead flow to
- 4:23keep you busy and for you to actually
- 4:25make commissions. As a sales rep, you're
- 4:26only making like 5 to 15% commission, so
- 4:28if they're doing less than 200 grand a
- 4:30month, that doesn't leave you a lot of
- 4:31money to work with. Number two, the
- 4:32offer owner has a really good personal
- 4:34brand. The best offers are with people
- 4:35and influencers that have a cult-like
- 4:37audience because that audience is
- 4:38producing warm leads every single day
- 4:40and warm leads are the best leads to
- 4:41sell especially as a beginner. You do
- 4:43not want to be cold messaging strangers
- 4:45selling something that they don't want
- 4:46to buy. You want to be having inbound
- 4:47leads come to you. You can call them up
- 4:49and qualify them easily. And then number
- 4:50three, it's in a niche that's actually
- 4:51growing. The offers that I'm most
- 4:53bullish on right now are B2B AI, peptide
- 4:55and hormone optimization, content
- 4:57agencies, ghostwriting, short-form
- 4:59agencies, personal branding coaching.
- 5:00These are the waves that people are
- 5:01going to spend the next five years
- 5:03chasing, which means the demand isn't
- 5:04going anywhere. Now that you understand
- 5:05which offers are the best and how to
- 5:07identify good offers, you're going to
- 5:08want to create a video resume before you
- 5:10start sending it out to influencers.
- 5:11This basically just explains to the
- 5:13business why you're going to be a good
- 5:14fit. It can also show them how well you
- 5:15speak on camera. They're looking for a
- 5:1730-second to 1-minute video going over
- 5:19this. Why you're going to be a good fit
- 5:20for this role, what you've done in the
- 5:21past that relates to the role, and just
- 5:23overall letting them know that you're
- 5:24not going to be a risk to their business
- 5:25if they put you on the team and give you
- 5:27a chance. Like I said earlier, it's not
- 5:28going to be impossible to get a job.
- 5:30I'll give you guys an example of a good
- 5:31Loom right here.
- 5:32>> Well, my name is and I'm going to save
- 5:33you the corny intros and the overdone
- 5:34slideshows and just get right into it.
- 5:36My primary focus is building a full-time
- 5:38career in sales, specifically
- 5:39appointment setting.
- 5:41I do run a small online consulting
- 5:42business, however, it is designed to run
- 5:44with minimal day-to-day involvement,
- 5:46meaning my professional availability
- 5:47will not be interfered with. Running my
- 5:49own online business as well as selling
- 5:51my services has equipped me with
- 5:52fundamentals in qualifying people,
- 5:54handling objections, and moving
- 5:56conversations forward efficiently, all
- 5:58of which I am now applying to full-time
- 6:00sales. I've also invested multiple four
- 6:02figures in sales education as well as
- 6:04coaching. I'm both reliable and
- 6:06coachable, and when I commit to a
- 6:07schedule, I show up and I execute. Thank
- 6:09you for taking the time to watch, and if
- 6:11you feel like I would be the right fit
- 6:12for you, please feel free to reach out.
- 6:13I'd love to connect.
- 6:14>> you understand what offers are good to
- 6:16work for and you have your video resume
- 6:18ready, where do you actually find
- 6:19influencers to reach out to? The best
- 6:20thing you can do is pick like four to
- 6:22five influencers that you really want to
- 6:23work for and start sending them your
- 6:25resume and hope and pray that they see
- 6:26it. So, out of the niches that I went
- 6:28over, you're going to pick one. I'm
- 6:29going to do AI for an example. You're
- 6:30going to search up on YouTube how to
- 6:31start AI in 2026, click most recently
- 6:34uploaded, and you're going to see a
- 6:35bunch of creators that are most likely
- 6:36selling something to their audience. You
- 6:38can write down those names and then try
- 6:39to find their emails and Instagrams,
- 6:41which is most likely going to be in
- 6:42their YouTube bio. From there, you're
- 6:43going to want to say something like, "Do
- 6:44you have a mentorship?" so they open up
- 6:46the first initial message and you get
- 6:47put into priority and then send your
- 6:49resume after that. Like I said, it's not
- 6:50impossible to get a job this way. It's
- 6:52just going to take a lot more time,
- 6:53effort, and energy to do. Now, if you do
- 6:54want to skip all of that and get hired
- 6:56from one of the offers that I manage,
- 6:57I'll put some examples of some roles
- 6:59that I've had people reach out to me
- 7:00asking for setters and closers for. I
- 7:02run a software that literally updates
- 7:03every single day with some of the best
- 7:04high-ticket sales offers in the space.
- 7:06So, if you guys want to skip all that
- 7:07and just apply to work with me
- 7:08one-on-one to get placed on one of these
- 7:10roles, you can click the second link in
- 7:11my bio. Please only apply to this if you
- 7:13have no other obligations and want to do
- 7:15this full-time. All right, so you
- 7:16finally have the skill set and finally
- 7:17landed your first interview. What are
- 7:19you supposed to do from here? Once you
- 7:20nail this interview and you get them to
- 7:22say yes, your entire life could change.
- 7:24You literally now have the freedom to
- 7:25make money from anywhere in the world.
- 7:27You can quit your 9-to-5 and literally
- 7:28just spawn money in thin air from just
- 7:30calling people on the phone. So, this
- 7:31part is so, so important to get right.
- 7:33It's really just like any other
- 7:35interview, okay? You show up on time,
- 7:36you have high energy, and you just come
- 7:37across as coachable. That word is
- 7:39everything. Offer owners aren't looking
- 7:41for someone that already knows it all,
- 7:42especially as an appointment setter.
- 7:43They're looking for someone that they
- 7:44can train up and they know for a fact
- 7:46that this person will be coachable and
- 7:47do the work, which brings me to the
- 7:48stuff that will guarantee that you won't
- 7:50get hired onto an offer. And you need to
- 7:51hear this because I've seen it multiple,
- 7:53multiple times. Number one is ego. I've
- 7:55had people come to me, pay me for
- 7:56placement. They're like, "Oh, I'm the
- 7:57best sales rep in the world. I literally
- 7:59am ready. I don't need training." And
- 8:00almost every time those are the people
- 8:02that struggle to get past the interview
- 8:03stage. The second someone acts like they
- 8:05know everything, they're done. Nobody
- 8:06wants to manage a know-it-all that won't
- 8:08take coaching. Number two is
- 8:09inconsistent availability. If you're
- 8:11flaky, you don't show up to the meetings
- 8:12on time, you don't hit leads in a timely
- 8:14manner, you are useless to an offer
- 8:15because leads don't wait for you. If a
- 8:17lead shows interest, you have to be
- 8:18there to hit them up and call them and
- 8:20put them on the closer's calendar. And
- 8:21then another thing is you just overall
- 8:23have bad packaging. You're super nervous
- 8:24on the call. You're not groomed when you
- 8:26show up. You look like you're in a
- 8:27college dorm room. When I showed you
- 8:28guys that Loom video example, I want you
- 8:30to show up to the interview in that
- 8:31exact same mentality. Same way he
- 8:32speaks, same way he comes across, same
- 8:34confidence, everything. I'll also put a
- 8:35list of questions that most likely the
- 8:37interviewer is going to ask you so you
- 8:38can prepare for those questions. Now,
- 8:40here's the part that actually matters.
- 8:41Once you get hired, you want to
- 8:42immediately show them that you were a
- 8:44good choice for their business. This is
- 8:45exactly what I personally did to go from
- 8:47absolutely zero experience to the top
- 8:49performer within two months. And there's
- 8:50no way that you could possibly lose with
- 8:52it. First thing you do is when you
- 8:52finally join the offer, you're going to
- 8:54want to find the person who's the top
- 8:55performer and making the most amount of
- 8:56money in your position. So go to the top
- 8:58appointment setter and call them up. You
- 8:59guys are now working together, so you
- 9:01should probably get to know them. Now
- 9:02you want to study everything about them.
- 9:03Listen to some of their call recordings,
- 9:05their tonality, the way they speak, the
- 9:06specific script they're using. Replicate
- 9:08their process to a T. Don't try to
- 9:10reinvent it. Don't try to be clever. The
- 9:12questions they ask, all of it, because
- 9:13that's the best model that is working on
- 9:15this offer. Once you replicate what
- 9:17they're doing, you're going to want to
- 9:18double the volume. If they're doing 100
- 9:19dials per day, you're going to do their
- 9:20exact same process except 200 dials per
- 9:23day. If you have the same process as the
- 9:24top performer and double the output,
- 9:26there's no statistical way for you to
- 9:27lose. This is the entire cheat code and
- 9:29it's how I went from knowing absolutely
- 9:30nothing about appointment setting to top
- 9:32performer within two months. So that
- 9:33right there is the 14-day plan. Acquire
- 9:35the skill set, find the right offer, and
- 9:37then nail the interview. Everything you
- 9:38need to know to land your first
- 9:39appointment setting role in 2026 with no
- 9:41experience. So, let me leave you with
- 9:42this. Everything I gave you in this
- 9:44video, the skill set, the finding the
- 9:45offer, nailing the interview, the exact
- 9:4714-day roadmap I wish someone handed me
- 9:49when I first started, you can take this
- 9:50and run with it on your own. That's why
- 9:52I give everything away for free on this
- 9:53YouTube channel to help as many people
- 9:54as possible get out of their shitty 9-5.
- 9:56Or if you just want to skip the line and
- 9:57don't want to waste your time, you can
- 9:59learn from me and my team personally.
- 10:00We'll train you up, we'll give you the
- 10:01best training in the game, and we'll
- 10:02directly place you on some of the top
- 10:04offers in the space. Like I said, I'll
- 10:05put some of the roles up here that we're
- 10:06currently hiring for. And if you're
- 10:08serious about this, you're well-spoken,
- 10:09you're coachable, and have no other
- 10:11obligations, you can apply to work with
- 10:12us one-on-one and we'll directly place
- 10:14you on an offer and get you making money
- 10:15within a week. Other than that, thank
- 10:16you guys so much for watching this
- 10:17video. Please check out other videos on
- 10:18this channel. I drop everything for free
- 10:20about the high-ticket sales space. Hope
- 10:21you guys enjoyed it. I'll see you in a
- 10:22few days.
