quick rant about stats on linked In

on so I HATE it when ppl say shit like:


"90% of sales book are a waste of time"


"95 % of salesppl do this wrong"


OH REALLY???


you read 90% of all the books? you've talked to 95% of all sales ppl????


Its just so lazy and in my mind destroys your credibility (if you have any).


Every time I see that, i just want to ignore you forever.


ok thats it.


just dont do it.

I always want to ask for the data and the studies theyโ€™re pulling these numbers from. <br><br>Somehow I think they donโ€™t exist.

They are a waste of time - if you do not know how to use them for your use case.

You can read all sorts of books, listen to all sorts of podcasts but if you do not know how to use that information on your job and life :: It's a waste of time, just words dancing around on books.

People who say "95% of sales people do it wrong" should be blocked. Simple. Good filter for us to remove folks from our lives, no?

I love statistics - I make up 69% of my own.

To quote David Lee Roth - "What I know I talk about. What I don't know, I make up". There's wisdom there.

These people are just looking for a line to grab your attention. The bigger problem is that if it didnโ€™t work people wouldnโ€™t do it, some poor bastard is paying for their dumb services right now.

Those do not even seem like stats to me. They are just numbers that are pulled out of someone's ass.

What's your reply for the prospects, who want free advice and make you do lot of documentation, which eventually results into ghosting ?
