What Makes an ALPHA Salesperson?

I love the Bravado part of the War Room! I see it constantly as EVERY person in this place feels they're the ALPHA in the pack. But based on industry standards that say 20% of the salesforce accounts for 80% of all sales........that means 80% of you are dismal failures or mediocre at best.


So, what makes the ALPHA the ALPHA? I say it's being able to discern when you're really closing the deal. Could be in the boardroom, could be at the urinal while pissing with your client or when they call you back to find out what your question was in regards to the VM you left them. In any event........I love hearing from the masses!

Being an Alpha is too much work. still closing deals as a Beta or Gamma takes way less effort and gets the same results

How many laughs you get with a meme you crafted at a meme generator site. Only metric that matters.ย

It's the end of the sales cycle (Oct 31) and a prospect is *this* close โ€“ do you EVER mention that as a way to urge the sale along?
