Episode 3
LinkedIn will have you believe sales has been reinvented every other week, new frameworks, AI hacks, hustle porn at 4 a.m. But here’s the truth: sales hasn’t changed.
In this episode, I cut through the noise and share why the basics still win. You’ll hear:
- Why flashy tactics and shortcuts don’t close deals
- The “boring” fundamentals that actually move the needle
- How trust beats tricks
- Why the hardest part of sales isn’t the pitch, it’s the unsexy, consistent work
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by the noise, this is your reminder: block it out, stick to the fundamentals, and execute relentlessly.
