I actually find his content useful. You can really plug and play his formulas to fit your own product

I've learned that the War Room hates anybody who posts on LinkedIn

I think it's difficult to have "fresh" content all the time. I bought his badass growth guide and I don't regret it. He has great ideas, great tips in general.

I agree. I also have the guide and have no regrets. But it does get annoying when you see the same posts getting regurgitated every other month.

I am pretty sure he also has to post as often as he does because of the way Linkedin algorithms work. For people like him, he has to post very often to stay relevant in people's feeds. I like his ideas, so I don't mind it

He's great - a lot of his stuff is from his own experience, but also combined with GAP selling, with Chris Voss-isms, etc.

At least he has the heart for putting himself out there day after day to drive his business while 48% of bravado judges him... jfc

Yeah. Unless you're selling lemonade or dirt. All he does is regurgitate Chris Voss' Never Split The Difference book.

He recycles the same posts every other month about how some landscaper upsold him using a sales technique that a rock garden would be better than mulching because it will cost less in the long run even though the upfront cost is more. Idk, just read the Chris Voss book and you can learn everything that comes from Josh Braun

I was starting to notice the same thing. He also always bring up the bike shop story thing a lot “ditch the pitch, poke the bear” 🙄

I like his stuff, but yeah his LI posts are repetitive. I think he uses analogies like because we've all been the b2c buyer and he's trying to get us to be more mindful of the prospect. Just my 2 cents

I use some of the stuff he posts about - mirroring, "would you be opposed", etc. 

But I wish he would post more B2B stuff than the "here's an example of a cold email for someone who doesn't want to scratch their car with their washing mitt".

I find his stuff pretty useful actually. Although $54 for a deck of cards is a tough ask.

I actually called him out for this and he unconnected with me. I think he bastardises a Chris Voss’ content and puts it into his own, terrible, made up stories. 

he also said he was never a top performer and was always middle of the pack and said that those people aren’t celebrated enough. While not everyone can be a top performer, buying the content of a middle of the pack performer doesn’t seem overly smart. 

With all that being said, I know a couple of people who have bought his programs and liked them. I just don’t like him personally

Wish I could edit to add that in. Figured most salespeople have come across his stuff once or twice on LI

I may have seen him in passing but not nearly as much as some other sales influencers.

I like his 10 000 posts about how to handle rejections though

He does talk some sense (every influencer does) but after going through all of his posts you will find a pattern. 

I guess that's what irritates us about influencers. 

Same shit, over and over again.

He is properly rated. He’s a LinkedIn influencer but he has some stuff I like and other stuff that is just kind of “eh”

He's not overrated. Have you bought his course? thoughts on it?

Recycling LI posts is totally cool and a recommend strategy for A/B testing.

I have not, part of the reason why I was asking for input was because I was looking at his course. What are your thoughts on it?

Depends on what youre looking to improve on: If cold calling, cold emailing and all outbound then id highly redommend it. Are you focused on that or doing demos?

Focused on what you listed there, I’m gonna see if I can get the company to buy it for the SDR team before I whip out my card
