**The Value of Being Part of a Team: My Personal Journey from Little League to SalesStar** From Little League baseball to high school football, and from my time as a Plank Owner on the USS Comstock (LSD 45) to my current role at SalesStar, being part of a team has shaped who I am. In Little League, I was placed in the outfield so stronger players could cover for me. In high school, I was a starter on both offense and defense, where my strengths helped propel the team. But it was in the Navy, on the USS Comstock, that I truly understood the power of teamwork. Our ship's motto, "Teamwork, Drive, Courage," wasn't just words—it was a way of life. We worked as a cohesive unit, with complete belief in each other's abilities, our team's capabilities, and our overarching mission. I've also experienced the other side of the coin in business teams plagued by dysfunction, where members were only interested in themselves, and competing objectives led to minimal success. I thought my Navy experience was the pinnacle of teamwork until I joined SalesStar. SalesStar rivals my Navy experience and could share the USS Comstock motto of "Teamwork, Drive, Courage." Our core values include: 👉 **Better Never Stops**: Every day, we choose a growth mindset, learning from yesterday and striving to be better today. 👉 **Be a Product of the Product**: We live and breathe what we teach, being avid learners and walking the talk. 👉 **Team First**: We support each other, collaborate, and pay it forward, knowing that our clients benefit when we work together. 👉 **Creating Raving Fans**: We under-promise and over-deliver, aiming to be remarkable and going above and beyond. 👉 **Do it for the Right Reasons**: We have the integrity to do what's right for our clients and the SalesStar family, owning an abundance mindset and putting our clients' needs first. At SalesStar, we get to help customers grow their sales by growing their people. We help people achieve their goals, families take vacations, and put their children through college. We help people buy their first homes, invest in their retirements, give back to their communities, and have peace of mind and quality of life. Being part of a truly cohesive team is invaluable.

**Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs: My Journey** Hey LinkedIn fam! 🌟 I want to share a bit about my journey and how I've tackled self-limiting beliefs head-on. Professionally, I transitioned from a heavy transactional sales process to mastering the Miller Heiman Strategic Selling process. It wasn't easy—stepping out of my comfort zone felt daunting. But embracing this strategic approach transformed my sales career, boosting my confidence and success. 💼📈 Personally, I conquered my fear of public speaking by volunteering to speak to large groups. Each opportunity made me stronger, and now I genuinely enjoy it. 🎤👏 Remember, growth happens when we push ourselves into uncomfortable situations. What’s one way you’ve challenged yourself recently?

🚀 **Transforming Sales with Consultative Selling** 🚀 Are you ready to transform your sales team’s performance? I’m thrilled to share this insightful article from SalesStar on the power of consultative selling: https://lnkd.in/eVxuNnFY When I worked with a historically transactional sales team ranked 30th in the country, we faced significant challenges. By shifting our approach to consultative selling and fostering a growth mindset, we tackled the "money weakness" holding us back. The results were phenomenal. In just 12 months, our average monthly recurring revenue per sale increased by 63%, and the following year we catapulted from 30th to 3rd in the country. This experience underscored the immense power of consultative selling. By genuinely understanding and addressing client's needs, we not only boosted our sales but also built stronger, more trustful relationships with our clients which created referrals.

🌟 **My Sales "Why" Journey & Unlocking Greatness** 🌟 About 14 years ago, during an earlier stage of my career, Simon Sinek's "Start with Why" enlightened me and caused me to tweak my approach to sales. It allowed me to find and embrace the passion for helping people uncover meaning and fulfillment on their journey towards success. Our "Why" is what allows us to connect with others and experience authentic relationships. I help sales professionals to find their Why which adds energy and inspiration. One in particular was the experience of a colleague who discovered their "Why" and turned it into helping other people/their clients. In fact, their confidence sky-rocketed and they became a top performer. We create a ripple effect of greatness by helping other find their "Why". What's your "Why"?

Stick to the Script? Not Always! Sales Training is Momentary - Sales Coaching is Transformational! Check out this hilarious cartoon courtesy of PhoneBurner! 😂 A sales call script is only as good as the person who writes it and the person who reads it. It’s never enough to simply download a script template from the internet and immediately hand it off to your team. Take time to think through your script. Gather insights from your reps about the sales cycle and what they've learned from moving deals through it. Come up with creative and engaging ways your reps can handle objections. Remember, a script is a guide, not a rulebook. Adapt and conquer! #SalesCoaching #SalesTransformation #SalesSuccess #SalesHumor #StickToTheScript #SalesStar
