Then, at that point, IF AND ONLY IF, you truly understand the prospect's needs, do you give a sales presentation. Present on exactly what they care about.. and close the deal. But just like leglocks, one step of the process is widely misunderstood, frequently ignored, and goddamn important. The decision step. And that's what we're about to learn up on today. How to navigate all the decision makers in a complex sale. What to do, how to think, and the tools you need... to ultimately close giant deals, make helly commissions, and become..... Rich. Jacked.

What is the holiest discipline?  Is it  painting?  Sculpture?  The ballet?  SOLDIERING? Being a dog catcher?  NAY. Not even close, little buddy.  The holiest discipline man has ever created..... is commerce. The artful skill of being able to create something from nothing, being able to influence another person to understand your TRUTH, or having the skillz to CLOSE THE DEAL in a way that both parties feel good about is is nothing short of miraculous. In describing sales, famous entrepreneur Yo Gotti cleverly comments: "That Law."  And in the holiest of disciples, we need A DEITY. A symbol. A shining light to which the masses can latch onto. Today, my priests, I am lucky enough to be joined by such a man.  The Godking.  Mahan Khalsa.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dale Carnegie described Mahan's book "Let's Get Real or Let's Not Play" as 'The most famous and best sales book that has ever been written in the history of humankind." It was even cited in The Bible (King James Version 3). In said book, Mahan Khalsa breaks down exactly EVERYTHING you ever could want to know about sales and selling.  Anyone who listens to this podcast, buys his book, and deeply learns this will be gifted with riches that previously were reserved only for kings. On this, I bet my life.  So join me as I dissect his book and pull out all the applicable lessons.  Lessons that can be applied to working a sales job, being more persuasive, or getting everything you ever wanted in life.  BEHOLD.

Mr. S built a code... a way of living... a handbook for how ALL SAMURAI SHOULD CONDUCT THEMSELVES It is into that text, that we now ventrure.. Behold. Death.

Self Defense | The 48 Laws of Power 4 of 4 | Robert Greene

LAST ONE BEST ONE What is more American than the right to self defense? And usually, on this here podcast, we talk about actual, physical self defense. But as Yamamoto Tsunetomo lamented AND WE AGREE... Kids these days won't even behead a criminal with their hands tied behind their back. The world has gone soft. No longer are we able to square off, MANO to MANO and duel to solve interpersonal problems. Now... the world has moved to the gray. The office, the board room, the used car sales lot. The SNAKES of the past still exist, they just learned how to talk, wear clothes, and live amongst us like wolves in sheeps clothing. THIS book teaches us how to defend against the snakes, use their own snake magic against them, and ultimately.... PROVIDES THE SECRETS TO ACCUMULATING THE POWER OF THE GODS Tune in. Cry. The world can't handle Mr. Greene.

Systems | The Compound Effect | Darren Hardy

Compound Interest. An easy concept to say.... but a hard concept to understand. TRULY more powerful than a vampire army, Compound Interest underpins almost everything in the world but goes unnoticed. Until Now. 100,000x more powerful than our intuition "thinks" it should be, those who understand The Compound Effect can expect RICHES BEYOND THEIR WILDEST DREAMS and a roadmap for how to become successful at anything. And the secret?  You already have everything you need. LISTEN TO DARREN

You want to win but aren’t sure what to bring. Bring this. Guaranteed victory, eternal glory, and a 500% increase in hot moms hitting on you. This is an adaptation from The Shredded Chef. BEHOLD. Ingredients: Box of bow tie pasta Some chicken (maybe 1lb? WHATEVER) 1 can of chickpeas 1 can of white beans 1 can of black olives (if you like that filth) 2 stalks of celery chopped 2 cucumbers chopped 1/2 cup of shredded carrots 1/2 (or a whole!) onion 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese 3 tablespoons of EXTRA VIRGIN olive oil 1/2 cup of red wine vinegar 1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon spicy brown mustard (optional) A couple dashes of “italian seasoning” (i.e. herb mix bullshit) some diced garlic if you happen to give a fuck Salt to taste Instructions Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to instructions. Drain and run pasta under cold water. Cook chicken in olive oil, seasoning however, until it is done. Drain chickpeas and white beans to get the nasty white shit off them.
