I can share the 10 War Room commandments if you want:

1. Thou shalt log into the War Room every single day

2. Thou shalt not use the War Room to scam or defraud others

3. Thou shalt not post any spam or irrelevant content

4. Thou shalt strive to appear on Leaderboard as soon often as possible

5. Thou shalt read all academy articles. Twice.

6. Thou shalt not post any information that could reveal a user's identity

7. Thou shalt not farm commission points

8. Thou shalt use the search bar often

9. Thou shalt create quality content, frequently

10. Thou shalt support all savages who make the War Room the best place for salespeople that's ever existed

This should be pinned somewhere.

No stone tablets. Those get lost or broken.

Always kill with kindness.

If you are having problems with someone, never be the one who complains unless there is a business rationale. If you get into a he said/she said situation, itโ€™ll be a losing battle. Always have nothing bad to say and that you are shocked about the info. That person becomes the problem. You get isolated and whenever something comes up in the future, you are covered.

Sure. One of my first jobs had a guy that would verbally harass people, and be an overall dick. One day, I just got fed up and filed a complaint. Apparently, he said only nice and glowing things about me. So, when things were closed out, it made me seem like a crazy person. I was pissed, but I dropped it. Later, at an outting, he just laid into me one-on-one. Gave me shit, and told me that anything that happens and gets escalated will be my fault. Kind of messed up, but you have to leave traps for people like that.

Google an excel interview test for some bigger company and google how to do everything. It's what I did when I was unemployed and was very helpful and helps me in my everyday use of the system.

If you are awesome at excel, pick some other software and do the same.

You are less important to people than you think. You also matter more to people than you think.

Lead from a place of honesty to any and all potential partners in business and life.

Everything else will fall into place.

AEโ€™s - hereโ€™s a very client-centred way to gather information about โ€˜WHENโ€™ a decision needs to be made. Doing it this way will help you shorten sales cycles and build trust. Keep in mind - not every question I ask in this example is a perfect fit for every buyer, but should give you a good place
