Emotions Drive Most Purchases
Customers buy a different car or truck because they want to, not because they need to. The more excited they are when they’re on the lot, the more likely they are to buy. (Think about it – when people are cautious, aren’t we all less likely to buy?) Their positive emotions come from the sights, …

Will You Sell More?
The ‘choice’ most salespeople ignore. Success, and more success, is dependent on a person’s motivation, desire, determination, and the self-discipline they apply to make it happen.

Gaining Knowledge vs. Developing Skills
I decided to play golf a few years ago, so I bought clubs and videos on everything from driving to putting. Then I watched every video on what I needed to do to become a good golfer. Quick question – how many skills did I develop watching those videos? Right – Zero. All I got …

Winning Attitudes
Albert Einstein did terrible at arithmetic, Winston Churchill got lousy grades in English, and both ended up being two of the greatest men in history.

Peer Pressure Kills Sales & Careers
It doesn’t take much more than a ‘duh’ degree to know that if you don’t do what it takes to succeed – you won’t. But so many people reading this who want to improve and know they can, don’t. Most don’t even try, because they’re afraid of the ‘resistance fighters’ or of what some of …
Angst Creates Objections & Costs You Sales
Angst … “A feeling of deep anxiety.” 8 out of every 10 customers you talk to today will buy. More important, 6 of the 8 specifically left home to buy a car today and from your dealership (that’s why they stopped at your dealership instead of the one next door). They came to buy, but …
