The “Cheat Code” To Business (The Secret To Selling To Anyone From Years Of Teaching)

Most business owners fail for one simple reason. They can't explain what they do. They have a killer product, but they lose the customer in the first thirty seconds. I spent ten years as a school teacher before I realized that teaching is actually the ultimate cheat code to business. It's the mother of all skills. If you can teach, you can sell anything.

You need to share why you're the best person to learn this from so that they're committed to the process. I did this as well at the start of this episode. I shared my education and my experience and that I actually taught five days a week, five classes a day, every single day for a decade. Why are you equipped to talk about what you talk about? What's your unique angle? What's your unique experience that no one else can share? Make a note of that in your mind.
