  1. 0:00You're not making as much money as you
  2. 0:02want because you're not saying the right
  3. 0:03words or saying them the right way.
  4. 0:05Saying the right words comes down to the
  5. 0:07correct scripting. [music] Saying them
  6. 0:08the right way comes down to tone. This
  7. 0:11video I'll explain what I've learned
  8. 0:12over 14 years of selling stuff. 8 weeks
  9. 0:14ago I just did a launch. We did $106
  10. 0:16million in 72 hours and we broke the
  11. 0:20Guinness Book World Record for the
  12. 0:21fastest selling non-fiction of all time
  13. 0:24and became fourth of all books of all
  14. 0:26time. Either way, right now you're not
  15. 0:28making as much money as you want because
  16. 0:29you're saying things the wrong way. So,
  17. 0:31let me give you an example. So, if I
  18. 0:32said, "I didn't say he hit his wife. I
  19. 0:36didn't say he hit his wife. I didn't say
  20. 0:38he hit his wife. I didn't say he hit his
  21. 0:41wife." Four different ways of saying
  22. 0:43that statement all have four different
  23. 0:45very different meanings. And so, if
  24. 0:47right now you're like, "Man, I I I got
  25. 0:49this script or I wrote this out of how
  26. 0:51I'm supposed to say this stuff and
  27. 0:53people aren't buying." It's like because
  28. 0:54they think that you're telling them that
  29. 0:56you hit your wife. That's not really it.
  30. 0:58But they're they're not doing it because
  31. 1:00the words you're saying aren't
  32. 1:02communicating the meaning that you think
  33. 1:05they are. And so tone is a huge
  34. 1:08difference in terms of pitching in terms
  35. 1:10of one to many setting or just in a
  36. 1:12one-on-one conversation. And so a lot of
  37. 1:14the things that teach around tone are
  38. 1:16super amorphous and very confusing. And
  39. 1:18I know this because as I came up, I
  40. 1:20would hear things like curiosity tone,
  41. 1:22aggressive tone, laid-back tone. And I
  42. 1:24was like, what does any of this actually
  43. 1:27mean? And so, number one is that in
  44. 1:30order to do any of this, you must have a
  45. 1:31script. Duh. If you don't have a script,
  46. 1:34get a script. I have whole videos on
  47. 1:36this closer framework, and you can walk
  48. 1:38through that. Clarify whether they're
  49. 1:39there, label them the problem, overview
  50. 1:40past experience, sell the vacation with
  51. 1:41a three-step pitch, then transition into
  52. 1:44explaining away their concerns,
  53. 1:45reinforce the decision. That's what a
  54. 1:47script looks like. Now, how do you make
  55. 1:49sure that you have the correct tone? So,
  56. 1:51there's five things you can do to
  57. 1:52modulate your voice. And three of them
  58. 1:55will be fixed. Two of them are variable.
  59. 1:57And so, when you're writing a script or
  60. 1:59you're observing somebody who's better
  61. 2:01than you at selling in order to learn,
  62. 2:03these are the five things that you need
  63. 2:04to look for. Three, create what I call
  64. 2:07sales tone. These are constants. And so,
  65. 2:11number one is that you have to speak
  66. 2:12loud enough that they can hear you. This
  67. 2:15should sound obvious. If they can't hear
  68. 2:16you, they can't understand you, they
  69. 2:18can't buy from you. Now, this matters
  70. 2:20more in person than it does over the
  71. 2:22phone because over the phone they can
  72. 2:23adjust their volume. In person, it
  73. 2:24matters a lot. The second part of sales
  74. 2:26tone is that you have to speak slowly
  75. 2:28enough that they can comprehend you,
  76. 2:30right? If you talk too fast, trust goes
  77. 2:33down. If you talk too slow, they think
  78. 2:34you're an idiot. And so, you have to hit
  79. 2:36the sweet spot, which is typically under
  80. 2:39185 words per minute and above 135. So,
  81. 2:42that's a bit of the sweet spot. So for
  82. 2:44me, I tend to talk fast. And so when I
  83. 2:47gave my presentation at the book launch,
  84. 2:50which I referenced earlier, I know that
  85. 2:52I speak at 185 words per minute. And so
  86. 2:55I had to reverse engineer when I knew I
  87. 2:57was going to be dropping the link in
  88. 2:58order for people to buy at that time
  89. 3:00stamp and then knew I had to have this
  90. 3:02many words prior to that point. And when
  91. 3:04you get consistent with how you speak,
  92. 3:06what happens is your sales
  93. 3:08conversations, if instead of like, well,
  94. 3:09this one took an hour and a half and
  95. 3:10this one took 10 minutes, these start to
  96. 3:12become more consistent. Now, I said the
  97. 3:14first was that you have to speak loud
  98. 3:15enough. The second is that you have to
  99. 3:17speak at the right speed that they can
  100. 3:19actually understand you. The third is
  101. 3:21that you have to articulate what you're
  102. 3:23saying so that you're rounding out the
  103. 3:24words. You're not mumbling. You're
  104. 3:26actually saying and pronouncing each
  105. 3:28word clearly. So, if you do those three
  106. 3:30things, you maximize comprehension. Now,
  107. 3:33someone might hear that and think, "Oh,
  108. 3:34well, if you do that, you're going to
  109. 3:36sound unnatural." Now, the way that you
  110. 3:38have a quote natural tone is to have
  111. 3:41consistent variability in your speaking
  112. 3:44cadence. So, what does that mean? If you
  113. 3:47sound like you're reading a script, the
  114. 3:49reality is it's because you don't know
  115. 3:52the script well enough. And so, you
  116. 3:53probably are reading the script. If you
  117. 3:56want to sound like you're not reading a
  118. 3:57script, stop reading the [ __ ] script.
  119. 4:00So, how do you do that? So, this is
  120. 4:02scientifically backed. This is one of
  121. 4:04the fastest ways to memorize anything.
  122. 4:06So you print out two versions of your
  123. 4:08script. You're going to have the script
  124. 4:09you correct yourself from and then the
  125. 4:10script you read from. So here's how the
  126. 4:12practice works. This is how I train
  127. 4:14sales people. You're going to sit down
  128. 4:16and you're going to say the entire
  129. 4:17script. You're going to read it out loud
  130. 4:19annunciating every word clearly. That's
  131. 4:21it. After you finish the entire script,
  132. 4:23you're going to have one marker. Looks
  133. 4:25like this. And then you'll cross out one
  134. 4:28of the words. And then you will read
  135. 4:30that document again with the word
  136. 4:32missing. Then when you get to the
  137. 4:35bottom, you'll go back to the top and
  138. 4:37you'll block out a second word. And then
  139. 4:38you'll read it again. And by the end of
  140. 4:41this process, you will have repeated the
  141. 4:42script as many times as there are words
  142. 4:44in the script. And guess what happens
  143. 4:46when you do that? At the end, you'll be
  144. 4:49looking at a blank page that has all
  145. 4:51blacked out words and you'll be saying
  146. 4:53the script. And so you will no longer be
  147. 4:55saying it. You will be breathing the
  148. 4:57script, which is the terminology that I
  149. 4:59use. The reason this is important is
  150. 5:01because if you are selling, the last
  151. 5:02thing you should be thinking about is
  152. 5:04what you're going to say. You should be
  153. 5:05thinking about what the prospect is
  154. 5:07saying because a lot of sales is in your
  155. 5:09ears, not from your mouth. The person
  156. 5:11who speaks the most in the sale loses.
  157. 5:14So the idea here is we want them to give
  158. 5:16us as much information for us to be on
  159. 5:18defense as much as possible, which is
  160. 5:20only possible when you actually know the
  161. 5:22damn script. And so for us at our team
  162. 5:25and for you, you have to keep script as
  163. 5:28gold. It has to be paramount. It has to
  164. 5:30be no one is above the script because
  165. 5:32people fought and died to figure out
  166. 5:34these words which we know close
  167. 5:36prospects. And if you have different
  168. 5:37people saying different things, you
  169. 5:39can't do any of this because you can't
  170. 5:40even do the basics. So it's like trying
  171. 5:42to build a skyscraper on a foundation of
  172. 5:44sand. If you can't at least pour
  173. 5:46concrete if everyone says the same
  174. 5:48words, you don't have a team. And the
  175. 5:50reality is this is 95% of sales teams.
  176. 5:52And that's why they are not world class.
  177. 5:54Now I said there were three things. So
  178. 5:56number one, you got to speak loud
  179. 5:58enough. Number two, you got to speak at
  180. 5:59the right speed. And number three, you
  181. 6:00have to articulate every word so they
  182. 6:02can understand you. All three of these
  183. 6:03around comprehension to make sure that
  184. 6:05it sounds natural. You will just always
  185. 6:07have variability in how you speak. If
  186. 6:10you are not reading something, if you
  187. 6:11read something, then you'll sound like
  188. 6:13you're reading something because you
  189. 6:14don't actually know the words you're
  190. 6:16saying and you actually have less
  191. 6:17variability in your speaking cadence.
  192. 6:19Now, what are the other two variables
  193. 6:22that change whereas these three are
  194. 6:24constant? The first is pauses.
  195. 6:28So, if I want to emphasize a point, what
  196. 6:32am I going to do?
  197. 6:34I'm going to pause.
  198. 6:37And the length of the pause will dictate
  199. 6:40whether you're just getting someone to
  200. 6:41draw attention or you're expecting a
  201. 6:43response. So, a short pause is to draw
  202. 6:46attention to a point you make. So, we
  203. 6:48have three things that we do here. We
  204. 6:49have thing number one that's very
  205. 6:51important, thing number two that's very
  206. 6:53important, and thing number three that's
  207. 6:55very important. And when we pause this
  208. 6:56way, people know that we're competent,
  209. 6:59but we're also speaking in a way that
  210. 7:01they're going to be able to pay
  211. 7:02attention and hear what we're saying.
  212. 7:05That's number one in terms of the things
  213. 7:06you change. The way that we document
  214. 7:08this in the script is that I have dot
  215. 7:11dot dots to dictate that you have
  216. 7:12shorter periods and a full period for a
  217. 7:14full stop. And so when you're looking at
  218. 7:16a script, you should be able to read it
  219. 7:18the way you would read anything. If you
  220. 7:19had a dot dot dot, you'd maybe make a
  221. 7:21point, take a quick pause, and then get
  222. 7:22to the next point. If you have a period,
  223. 7:24you have a full stop. Correct? Everyone
  224. 7:26with me so far? This is how you have the
  225. 7:29first of the elements that draw
  226. 7:31attention or get someone to respond. The
  227. 7:33second is your frequency on your voice.
  228. 7:36Basically, does your voice go up or does
  229. 7:38it go down? Now, if we want to have your
  230. 7:42voice go up, what would we do in normal
  231. 7:44writing? We would put a question mark.
  232. 7:46Which means I could have a single word
  233. 7:48with a question mark behind it. I might
  234. 7:50say John. By saying that, I dictate that
  235. 7:54I am asking a question and I'm
  236. 7:57soliciting a response from the person.
  237. 7:58If I said, "John, I'm clearly not asking
  238. 8:01for a response right now." And so, it
  239. 8:04would then follow that the most
  240. 8:06important time to solicit a response
  241. 8:08from a customer would combine the two
  242. 8:10things that show the customer that it is
  243. 8:13their turn to talk back to us. So, what
  244. 8:16would that be? We would have a long
  245. 8:18pause and we'd raise our voice. aka you
  246. 8:21ask them to buy and you shut the [ __ ]
  247. 8:22up. That's how it works. So, the reason
  248. 8:26I'm saying this is because some of you
  249. 8:27train sales teams, some of you are being
  250. 8:29trained by a sales manager. And some of
  251. 8:31this language is very confusing. And it
  252. 8:33was very confusing to me as I came up as
  253. 8:35a salesperson. And as somebody who has
  254. 8:37trained many, many, many salespeople,
  255. 8:40this is the simplest structure for
  256. 8:43getting people to consistently speak in
  257. 8:45a way that gets people to buy. And so as
  258. 8:49long as you fundamentally know the
  259. 8:50script, then the volume, the speed, and
  260. 8:54your articulation should be constant.
  261. 8:56And the variety that you'll have in
  262. 8:58terms of your of your going up and down,
  263. 8:59that'll happen normally because you
  264. 9:01actually aren't reading it. The actual
  265. 9:03words that you'll dictate inside of how
  266. 9:04you'll notate it on the script so the
  267. 9:06saleserson knows what to say and how to
  268. 9:08say it will literally just be these
  269. 9:10three punctuations, a period, a dot dot
  270. 9:12dot, and a question mark. That's it.
  271. 9:16And the reason I wanted to make this
  272. 9:17video is because so many people spout so
  273. 9:20much [ __ ] and they say so many words
  274. 9:22that no one understands that they
  275. 9:24themselves have never defined. And so
  276. 9:26they're like curiosity tone and you're
  277. 9:27like how do I do that with my voice?
  278. 9:32Hey, have have ambitious tone. What what
  279. 9:36does that mean? You can only do a
  280. 9:38certain number of things with your
  281. 9:39voice. And so these changes will make
  282. 9:44sure you say the words the right way.
  283. 9:47And when you say the right words the
  284. 9:48right way, you allow the right words to
  285. 9:51do their full job the way they were
  286. 9:53intended. And by doing it this way, you
  287. 9:55will be able to duplicate the same sales
  288. 9:58process in the same people. So you can
  289. 10:00get more consistent outcomes between
  290. 10:02reps and within a rep's career. So if
  291. 10:05they go off track, you as a salesperson
  292. 10:07or as a sales manager can look at their
  293. 10:10can listen to their calls or listen to
  294. 10:12their call their you their sales
  295. 10:13recordings and say, "Okay, this is the
  296. 10:16language I can use to describe the
  297. 10:19changes they need to make in order to
  298. 10:21improve their conversions. Hey, you're
  299. 10:23not speaking loudly enough." Which might
  300. 10:26translate in somebody say, "Hey, have
  301. 10:27more confidence." It's like, what does
  302. 10:28that mean? Speak louder. Okay, cool. you
  303. 10:32might be speaking too fast, which they
  304. 10:34might say, "Hey, you sound nervous."
  305. 10:36You're speaking too fast. Just say that.
  306. 10:38Stop sounding nervous is not helpful.
  307. 10:41Speak at a slower cadence is helpful.
  308. 10:44And so, I would say that from a tactical
  309. 10:45perspective, as someone who's trained a
  310. 10:47lot of salespeople, the third element I
  311. 10:48said about enunciating the words, fully
  312. 10:51pronounce each word will automatically
  313. 10:54slow someone down who talks too fast
  314. 10:56when they are nervous. And the point
  315. 10:59that this is most crucial is in the
  316. 11:02close. The close is where you need to
  317. 11:04manage your tone the most. And that's
  318. 11:06typically where people have the highest
  319. 11:07emotions, have the highest adrenaline.
  320. 11:09Their cortisol is spiking because
  321. 11:11they're, you know, their hearts start
  322. 11:12fluttering because they're like, I hope
  323. 11:13I hope they buy. I hope they buy. I hope
  324. 11:15I didn't mess anything up. And then
  325. 11:16also, if someone says no in response,
  326. 11:18that's when the objection handling comes
  327. 11:19in. And if you talk too fast, it can
  328. 11:23come off aggressive, right? You talk too
  329. 11:25loud and fast, it sounds aggressive.
  330. 11:27town too slow. You sound well, you sound
  331. 11:29slow. I'll just put it that way. All
  332. 11:30right. And so, functionally, big picture
  333. 11:33here, the reason the close has the most
  334. 11:35pauses and has the one question that
  335. 11:38matters is because we want to make sure
  336. 11:40that they're paying the most attention
  337. 11:42when we're asking them to buy. That's
  338. 11:44the point. Now, if you look back at the
  339. 11:46pitch that I just did in August for the
  340. 11:49book, you'll notice if you look at the
  341. 11:51entire 2hour plus thing, where is the
  342. 11:55longest pause?
  343. 11:58When I ask people to make a decision, to
  344. 12:00make a purchase, that's where also
  345. 12:03there's tons of research that supports
  346. 12:04this. There's three big meta analysis. I
  347. 12:06don't remember where they are from.
  348. 12:07Colombia is one of them. where they
  349. 12:08showed that people who wait up to eight
  350. 12:11seconds after asking someone to buy
  351. 12:13closed 30%
  352. 12:15more sales. Now, the reason that I think
  353. 12:18this is very important for anybody who
  354. 12:19who sells anyone is that you have to
  355. 12:23give people time to process, right? Like
  356. 12:25if you ask a question, they have to have
  357. 12:27some time to make that decision. So, not
  358. 12:29trying to fill the space and allowing
  359. 12:31them the room to then respond increases
  360. 12:34the likely they close. Many people will
  361. 12:36fill the space that you create because
  362. 12:39they get nervous or feel awkward in
  363. 12:41situations where no one is talking. If
  364. 12:43you had to pick between you talking and
  365. 12:44them talking, which one do you think
  366. 12:46sells them better?
  367. 12:48Them talking. Why? Because people
  368. 12:50believe what they say. They very believe
  369. 12:52very little of what you say. And so the
  370. 12:54reason that selling is about asking
  371. 12:56questions to get someone to sell
  372. 12:58themselves is because the questions lead
  373. 13:01them to respond. and their response is
  374. 13:03it's what sell them on why they should
  375. 13:05buy your thing. This is the point when
  376. 13:08you're in the objection handling parts.
  377. 13:10So, a little bit later, I'll give you
  378. 13:11one more pro tip which is outside of the
  379. 13:13scope of this video, but I think you'll
  380. 13:15still like it, which is I have spent a
  381. 13:18long time creating, you know, scripting
  382. 13:20out overcomes for, you know, time. Hey,
  383. 13:22I don't have time for this or hey, it's
  384. 13:23the wrong time in my life or I got to
  385. 13:26talk to my spouse. I need a decision
  386. 13:27maker. give me give me a little bit of
  387. 13:29time which is a different thing which a
  388. 13:31stall this is really expensive which
  389. 13:33almost no one ever says they just come
  390. 13:34up with other excuses because this is
  391. 13:36really expensive is rare now they might
  392. 13:37say it's out of my budget or you know I
  393. 13:39can't afford this right now blah blah
  394. 13:40blah so there's all these different
  395. 13:41things that I would try and script to
  396. 13:43overcome these particular issues and I
  397. 13:45will share something with you that was a
  398. 13:46huge aha moment the salespeople who
  399. 13:49close the most sales are the sales
  400. 13:51people who ask the most times now in
  401. 13:54hearing this the immediate response from
  402. 13:56a simpleton or a mundane person might
  403. 13:59then say, "Oh, well that means that
  404. 14:01you're asking me to be a really annoying
  405. 14:03salesperson." No. Why would that be?
  406. 14:06Because the opposite effect of this is
  407. 14:09that people get annoyed when you ask a
  408. 14:11lot of times. So, it's a balancing act
  409. 14:13between I have to ask as many times as I
  410. 14:15can without pissing off the prospect,
  411. 14:18which then becomes the skill. The reason
  412. 14:21that I believe all of these overcomes
  413. 14:23exist is literally just to give you an
  414. 14:25excuse to ask again. And so if someone
  415. 14:29says I have this issue and you say if we
  416. 14:31resolved it in this way would that work?
  417. 14:32They might say yes to say want to buy.
  418. 14:34And so when we do that, it gives a
  419. 14:37reasonable reason for you to make the
  420. 14:38ask again, which then translated for me
  421. 14:42over time to, oh, so I don't even think
  422. 14:44the response to what they're saying,
  423. 14:46assuming it's not a true logistical
  424. 14:48concern of like I can't make that date
  425. 14:50or whatever. So like I I have five
  426. 14:53family members and you're trying to sell
  427. 14:54me a two-seater and I need the whole
  428. 14:55like if it's not a logistical concern,
  429. 14:57all the things match their preferences,
  430. 14:59but then they're just saying decision
  431. 15:00maker, time, money, etc. around the
  432. 15:02issue. We can just memorize seven closes
  433. 15:06that anyone can learn that are universal
  434. 15:09closes. And so I'll give you an example
  435. 15:12of one of them, which is whatever reason
  436. 15:14they say, you would just take that
  437. 15:16reason and say, well, I think I think
  438. 15:19maybe that's the the very reason you
  439. 15:20should do it. So I don't have time right
  440. 15:22now to do XYZ. It's like, well, I think
  441. 15:24the fact that you don't have time is
  442. 15:25probably the reason you need this more
  443. 15:26than anyone else. I don't have money
  444. 15:28right now. I think the fact that you
  445. 15:29don't have money is probably why you
  446. 15:30need to do this more than anyone else.
  447. 15:31Because if it's a consumer product, I
  448. 15:33would say then it means you're going to
  449. 15:33care more than anyone else because
  450. 15:35you're going to be so invested in it. If
  451. 15:36it's a B2B product, I would say the
  452. 15:38reason that you need to do this more
  453. 15:40than anyone else because you don't have
  454. 15:41the money is because this is exactly
  455. 15:42what this B2B thing is supposed to help
  456. 15:43you with. You don't have enough
  457. 15:44customers. Our SEO is going to help you.
  458. 15:45You don't have the the right pricing and
  459. 15:47packaging, which is what we're going to
  460. 15:48help you with, right? Like the problem
  461. 15:49that you're solving to not buy is the
  462. 15:53problem that we solve through you
  463. 15:55buying.
  464. 15:56And so that is one of the seven
  465. 15:58universal closes. And so the idea is
  466. 16:00instead of trying to get really cute
  467. 16:03with, oh, I want to overcome this thing.
  468. 16:05I'm going to I'm going to say this and
  469. 16:06then say that say, you're never going to
  470. 16:08sell someone by being right ever. It's
  471. 16:11kind of like winning an argument. No one
  472. 16:12wins an argument. They will just feel
  473. 16:14bad and hate you, which you don't want.
  474. 16:15People don't buy from people they hate.
  475. 16:17And so the idea is how can we just
  476. 16:19reframe and then ask again and that's
  477. 16:21it. And I would say from my experience
  478. 16:23and from looking at the sales data we
  479. 16:24have, you're only, and as much as people
  480. 16:26love to obsess about objection handling,
  481. 16:28myself included earlier in my career,
  482. 16:30you're really only going to pick up 20
  483. 16:32maybe 30% of your sales after the no.
  484. 16:35The vast majority of the selling happens
  485. 16:37prior to the ask. And so that's two
  486. 16:40components. One is everything prior to
  487. 16:41them having the conversation with you.
  488. 16:43All of that has a larger influence on
  489. 16:44selling than the conversation you have.
  490. 16:46Now, from the beginning of the
  491. 16:48conversation to the close, those things
  492. 16:50absolutely do matter. And typically
  493. 16:53you'll lose them in discovery. I would
  494. 16:55say of the places where most people mess
  495. 16:57up the sale, it's going to be discovery.
  496. 16:59Most people understand the pitch pretty
  497. 17:00well. Closing is fundamentally like if
  498. 17:02they say no, then you have objection
  499. 17:03handling. The intro is very short. You
  500. 17:06should know that like you can breathe
  501. 17:07it. Of course, breathing the scrub. But
  502. 17:08the discovery, the disco is where most
  503. 17:10people mess up. I'll give you a little
  504. 17:12pro tip on discovery and then I will
  505. 17:13wrap this little tonality guide which is
  506. 17:16fundamentally what discovery entails is
  507. 17:19that we're trying to match their
  508. 17:21problems to our potential products and
  509. 17:24solutions. That's all we're doing. And
  510. 17:26so we ask them questions like so what
  511. 17:28have you done so far to solve this
  512. 17:29problem? You know how long have you been
  513. 17:31struggling with this XYZ? Right? We try
  514. 17:33to ask them questions so that they can
  515. 17:35say I have this problem. That's the
  516. 17:36whole point. Now, what happens when you
  517. 17:39have somebody who's either not very
  518. 17:40communicative or somebody who's not that
  519. 17:42warm is they're going to give you
  520. 17:43one-word answers. They're going to give
  521. 17:44you empty empty things that don't give
  522. 17:46you enough ammo, enough meat to then
  523. 17:48match what they're saying to something
  524. 17:50that you sell. The way that you overcome
  525. 17:52that is something that I call pulling
  526. 17:54teeth, which is you say, "Can you give
  527. 17:55me an example of that?" And the
  528. 17:58beautiful thing is that you can continue
  529. 17:59to repeat that basically over and over
  530. 18:01again. So, they say, "Well, you know,
  531. 18:03business isn't growing." And you're
  532. 18:04like, "Can you give me an example?"
  533. 18:06They're like, "Well, I mean, you know,
  534. 18:09this year is the same as last year."
  535. 18:10You're like, "Okay, can you can you give
  536. 18:12me a a specific example of like what's
  537. 18:14different between this year and last
  538. 18:15year?" They're like, "Well, nothing's
  539. 18:16different to do this year and last
  540. 18:17year." You're like, "Okay, so breaking
  541. 18:19down just like specifics here." So, I'll
  542. 18:23alternate between specifics and example,
  543. 18:24and you just bounce back and forth
  544. 18:25between those things until eventually
  545. 18:27they say, "You know what? I I have the
  546. 18:29same amount of leads as I did last
  547. 18:30year." Okay? And here's the point where
  548. 18:33discovery turns valuable. You say once
  549. 18:35you've got that meaty thing, you have to
  550. 18:38recap or chunk up which is says okay so
  551. 18:41you're not getting leads on a consistent
  552. 18:43basis. Is that right? Yes. So it sounds
  553. 18:46like it sounds like we draw this
  554. 18:48inference. It sounds like you have a
  555. 18:50marketing issue. Is that fair to say?
  556. 18:52Great. What else do you think is holding
  557. 18:54back your growth? And so we continue
  558. 18:56this cycle and then they and we say
  559. 18:57great. Can you be more specific? Can you
  560. 18:59give me an example? Can you be specific?
  561. 19:00Can you give me another example? You
  562. 19:02keep doing that until you have two to
  563. 19:03three key points that you have chunked
  564. 19:06up. And what do we do when we chunk up
  565. 19:07to, oh, it sounds like you have a
  566. 19:08marketing problem. Oh, you have a
  567. 19:10packaging problem. We're going to chunk
  568. 19:11up to the things that we sell. And so
  569. 19:14then when we transition, we say, hey,
  570. 19:16real quick before I dive in, it sounds
  571. 19:18like you said you have inconsistent lead
  572. 19:20flows. You have a mark some marketing
  573. 19:21issues we got to deal with. We need more
  574. 19:22reliability there. You're not making as
  575. 19:24much profit as you want per sale. So it
  576. 19:26sounds like we have some pricing and
  577. 19:27packaging issues. Is that fair? They
  578. 19:28say, "Right." Okay. So, if we solve this
  579. 19:30marketing and and pricing and package
  580. 19:32issue, do you think it would help grow
  581. 19:33the business? They say yes. Then we've
  582. 19:36they've already accepted the sale. Now,
  583. 19:38we say, "Great. Now that you've already
  584. 19:40agreed that whatever I'm about to sell
  585. 19:41you, you've already would help you grow.
  586. 19:43Can I tell you about our thing cuz I
  587. 19:45think I think it' help you out given
  588. 19:46what you just told me." They'll say yes.
  589. 19:48Then you say, "Hey, I'm going to match
  590. 19:51the problem you just had, which was so
  591. 19:54that for that marketing issue because
  592. 19:55you're getting inconsistent lead flow.
  593. 19:57Do you think it would help if you sat
  594. 19:59down and talked to one of our marketing
  595. 20:00directors who did this thing and cured
  596. 20:02cancer and was the best marketer in the
  597. 20:03world and did $106 million for this book
  598. 20:05launch? Do you think you'd be able to
  599. 20:06help you grow your $1 million business?
  600. 20:08Yeah, I think that would actually that
  601. 20:10probably help me out. Great. Problem one
  602. 20:12solved. Second issue, but we can't
  603. 20:15really do the marketing unless we have
  604. 20:17proper pricing so we can increase the
  605. 20:18gross margin of the business so we can
  606. 20:19propel the machine. Is that right?
  607. 20:21Great. So, if we were to have you meet
  608. 20:23with our pricing and patching expert,
  609. 20:24who only meets with home services
  610. 20:26businesses like yours and has done this
  611. 20:28for 6 years and has helped over 2,000
  612. 20:30businesses, do you think they'd be able
  613. 20:31to help you with your pricing and
  614. 20:32packing issue? They'll say, "Yeah, I
  615. 20:35think so." You say, "Great. Then I think
  616. 20:37you'd be a great fit. Ready to rock and
  617. 20:39roll?
  618. 20:41That's it." Now, at that point, if you
  619. 20:43have a quote pitch, then you'd say,
  620. 20:44"Hey, the three ways we're going to do
  621. 20:46it is this, this, this." that's going to
  622. 20:48help you, you know, create or resolve
  623. 20:49your constraint or resolve your, you
  624. 20:51know, your your overweightness, whatever
  625. 20:53it is. And then you make the invitation
  626. 20:54and then you shut up. That's it. And so,
  627. 20:58fundamentally, the reason that you are
  628. 20:59not making as much money as you want is
  629. 21:01because you're either saying the wrong
  630. 21:02words or you're saying them the wrong
  631. 21:04way. And if you use the tone guide that
  632. 21:06I just outlined, you'll have the three
  633. 21:08constants, which is you speak loud
  634. 21:09enough, you speak at the right speed,
  635. 21:11and you annunciate every word so they
  636. 21:12can understand you. And then the two
  637. 21:14things that will only be variable in
  638. 21:16your script will be when you pause and
  639. 21:18when you raise your voice. That's it.
  640. 21:20The rest is hullaloo and mythology. And
  641. 21:24this is what creates consistent sales.
  642. 21:26Thank you. My name's Ashi. I'll be all
  643. 21:28week.
