S3 Ep 397The Day I Almost Died Changed the Way I Think About Business and Life | 397
The Day I Almost Died Changed the Way I Think About Business and LifeWhere are you right now, in your career and in your life?Are you where you thought you would be?Does your business enhance your life or detract from it?One cold winter morning ten years ago I was not focused on those three questions. I was not focused on anything. I was flat on my back, strapped to a wooden board on a gurney. I stared at the ceiling, counting the tiles that passed by as the paramedics and doctor pushed me faster and faster down a seemingly endless hallway. Everything below my shoulders was numb.My mind was making up for the lack of motion in my body. It was racing with blistering speed. I was not thinking about all the things I would not be able to do if the feeling did not return. I was thinking about my priorities. I was thinking specifically about all the family things, all the life things I had put off because I thought my work and my life could not coexist. It is amazing how your life can change in a split second.Earlier that morning I made a choice to drop off a file at a client’s office instead of meeting my wife for lunch. I could have sent a messenger with the file. I could have emailed the documents. I could have done several different things, but the client demanded I bring the file personally so he could review the work and give me immediate feedback.I walked at a brisk pace as I stepped off the curb with the rest of the pedestrians crossing with the light, in the crosswalk. I was not on my mobile phone. I was not distracted. I was thinking about crossing the street. When the Yellow Cab hit me time stood still. I could see the horror on the faces of the other pedestrians as I flew 23 feet 7 inches and hit the ground with a sickening thud. I remember hearing the commotion as a group of Good Samaritans chased down the cab driver and pulled him out of the cab. I also remember the kind woman who asked me if she could call someone as they loaded me into the ambulance. Back in the hospital my focus changed when the ceiling tiles gave way to a long metal tube into which I was carefully loaded by six hospital staffers. The only thing louder than the annoying hum of the equipment was the sound of my thoughts. Thoughts of things I had yet to do. Things I had put off. Quality time I had not spent with people in my life that really mattered. Things worked out for me after that day…in more ways than one. By the grace of God, I suffered no lasting injuries from that accident. But it served as a wake-up call. I made the decision that from that day forward my work was going to be something that enabled my life. I was going to be passionate about every aspect of my work and I was going to delegate things I did not enjoy. I was only going to accept clients who energized me and I was not going to let anyone dictate the terms under which I would operate. I would take time to do things that were important both for my clients and my family. And I would make those two previously competing forces live in harmony in my life.Timestamps:00:00 The Day I Almost Died Changed Everything - Intro00:45 Dave Lorenzo's Taxi Cab Story06:30 Is Your Business FREE or is it FAKE?

S3 Ep 3845 Essential Sales Manager Skills: How to Be a Great Manager | 384
If you want to know what makes a good sales manager, I have some tips for you in this video. Leading a sales team is all about everyone EXCEPT for you. As a leader, your job is to make everyone else on your team better, so that they can shine.So, to help you take your leadership to the next level, here are a few things you should keep in mind.If you’re doing reports on your sales team, just stop. These reports create more work for everyone and they’re often not accurate. If you want to know how your team is doing, just ask them about their results each week. Secondly, don’t waste time with meetings. Sales meetings are often not very productive. What makes a good sales manager in my experience is being able to get out of the way. So get out of the way and let your team sell, don’t take up their time with meetings.Third, be sure you’re asking your team what they need in order to be successful. If you’re leading a sales team you really need to be the person that can make their jobs easier. Whether that’s helping them out with corporate, with customers, or by marking boundaries, make sure you’re doing whatever you can to improve their sales.Fourth, pay your team on time and fight for higher commissions. If you show your dedication to the team, they will return it in full.And finally, it’s not about you. Keep that in mind the next time you get in front of your team. Let them know what you can do for them, and they will show you what they can do for you. Remember, what makes a good sales manager is often just getting out of the way.Chapters:00:00 - What makes a good sales manager?00:18 - Tips for leading a sales team00:40 - Create a Distraction Free Environment02:04 - Great Sales Managers Provide the Sales Team with a System02:40 - Steal Dave Lorenzo's Sales System03:30 - Constantly Train and Coach Your Team05:10 - Focus on Outcomes06:02 - Dave's Success Story with Focus on Outcomes08:35 - Share Best Practices09:33 - Recognize and Reward Positive Behavior

S3 Ep 364The Day The Taxi Hit Me Changed Everything: Motivational Sales Speech | 364
The Day The Taxi Hit Me Changed EverythingWhere are you right now, in your career and in your life?Are you where you thought you would be?Does your business enhance your life or detract from it?One cold winter morning ten years ago I was not focused on those three questions. I was not focused on anything. I was flat on my back, strapped to a wooden board on a gurney. I stared at the ceiling, counting the tiles that passed by as the paramedics and doctor pushed me faster and faster down a seemingly endless hallway. Everything below my shoulders was numb. My mind was making up for the lack of motion in my body. It was racing with blistering speed. I was not thinking about all the things I would not be able to do if the feeling did not return. I was thinking about my priorities. I was thinking specifically about all the family things, all the life things I had put off because I thought my work and my life could not coexist. It is amazing how your life can change in a split second.Earlier that morning I made a choice to drop off a file at a client’s office instead of meeting my wife for lunch. I could have sent a messenger with the file. I could have emailed the documents. I could have done several different things, but the client demanded I bring the file personally so he could review the work and give me immediate feedback. I walked at a brisk pace as I stepped off the curb with the rest of the pedestrians crossing with the light, in the crosswalk. I was not on my mobile phone. I was not distracted. I was thinking about crossing the street. When the Yellow Cab hit me time stood still. I could see the horror on the faces of the other pedestrians as I flew 23 feet 7 inches and hit the ground with a sickening thud. I remember hearing the commotion as a group of Good Samaritans chased down the cab driver and pulled him out of the cab. I also remember the kind woman who asked me if she could call someone as they loaded me into the ambulance. Back in the hospital my focus changed when the ceiling tiles gave way to a long metal tube into which I was carefully loaded by six hospital staffers. The only thing louder than the annoying hum of the equipment was the sound of my thoughts. Thoughts of things I had yet to do. Things I had put off. Quality time I had not spent with people in my life that really mattered. Things worked out for me after that day…in more ways than one. By the grace of God I suffered no lasting injuries from that accident. But it served as a wake-up call. I made the decision that from that day forward my work was going to be something that enabled my life. I was going to be passionate about every aspect of my work and I was going to delegate things I did not enjoy. I was only going to accept clients who energized me and I was not going to let anyone dictate the terms under which I would operate. I would take time to do things that were important both for my clients and my family. And I would make those two previously competing forces live in harmony in my life.Timestamps:00:00 Motivational Sales Speech - Intro00:45 Dave Lorenzo's Taxi Cab Story06:30 Is Your Business FREE or is it FAKE?
