    My Door 2 Door sales journey…

    EXECUTION 
    I made a game today to help me practice. I listed all the most common objections/blow-offs and several responses to each. Then it’s essentially a flash card game. A random objection comes up and I have to respond to it. The next time that same objection comes up in the same game session, I...

    EXECUTION 
    Hey thanks for the reply! Appreciate the advice. Your breakdown of the number os doors and things… I’m thinking you may have worked for the same company I am now. I dont want to put the name out there but 60 with around 15 - 20 contacts and 1 sale a day is the exact numbers they gave us.

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the reply! Haven’t read that book but am familiar with the “focus on the process not the outcome” mental framework. My current goal is just to deliver my opener at the door and get past one initial smokescreen objection. If I deliver that well then I consider that door a win...

    EXECUTION 
    Looks very interesting. I’m going to get the book and check it out. Thanks for the tip! I started knocking myself this last Monday. During the day this week and next I’m still forced to do the sales training classes that takes up most of the day. I only get about 2 hours of good door knocking...

    My Door 2 Door sales journey…

    EXECUTION 
    Long story short, my Fastlane dream is to have my own national coffee brand. I have posted about this before and that is still my number one goal. However, I have found that this is going to be a much more expensive undertaking than I had previously realized. Quite frankly, I need to make a lot...

    OpenAI is backed by Microsoft and has cos many companies wanting to invest that they end up turning people down constantly. AI is the future and OpenAI are the market leaders. They are going nowhere no matter how much money they lose in the next few years.

    Thanks for the replies! Still chugging along. I’ve found out it’s going to take a good while to get this to the point where it’s making enough money for me to live on. That said, the samples I made were EXTREMELY popular and my customer base loves the message and mission of the brand. They...

    US dock worker labor strike

    SOURCING 
    The only problem I have with this argument is that when the old obsolete technology was replaced by new technology in this case cars replacing the horse drawn carriage the new technology still needed just as many if not more people involved to produce this new technology. What happens when...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    And right now is the worst that AI will ever be. AI is getting better at a very fast rate. Just last year AI produced video was HORRIBLE. Now, a year later, the more advanced engines can produce video that is near impossible to distinguish from videos made with real people. AI is going to keep...

    US dock worker labor strike

    SOURCING 
    Oversimplification on your part. Real example: My cousin works for a production facility that has around 350 people. It was recently announced that the process technicians (eight people total), the entire quality team minus the supervisor (16 total) and all assembly technicians (~60 total)...

    Automation is going to come regardless. It simply has to many positives to the owners. Why pay employees when you can have robotics and AI do it for a fraction of the cost and safer too? Out of curiosity, do we have access to this information as far as their profits and how they have risen in...

    All businesses that essentially sell information will be extinct within a couple years. AI will be able to generate any accurate information you could want. And with eventually it will even be able to do it for you. For example: if you want to learn about digital marketing so you can run FB...

    Growing my coffee brand!

    EXECUTION 
    Mostly it’s donation and brand identity. Talking to my customers they like that they are giving money to a business that understands them and supports what they support. Think of Black Rifle Coffee. Why do their customers buy that? Same concept

    Growing my coffee brand!

    EXECUTION 
    I started a coffee company. What makes my coffee company different? It’s targets a certain group of people and donates 30% (with to goal of eventually getting it up to 50%) of profits to a cause this group of people support. I’m also a member of this group so I understand my customer base...

    Come to think of it, to add on to my idea: Date night boxes. Couples always having trouble figuring out what to do for dates. Some boxes could have all the Ingredients needed to cook and eat a meal together. Other could be movies and snacks… Board games… Everything needed for a scavenger...

    How to attract users with low purchase b2c offers (ballpark $10/mo)?

    MARKETING 
    I don’t see this working as is. Some ideas: Do game rentals. Both PlayStation and Xbox. I’m not a gamer but don’t both of those games cost like $60 each now? I’m sure lots of people would rather rent on cheaper, beat it, and get another one. You can also offer “family night boxes!” Each box...
