He highlights GRA Services' rapid growth supporting utility infrastructure with a pole-setting foam product, and credits the Sandler communities' shared language for accelerating execution and decision-making.
Core takeaways from this episode: Maintain an "Abundance Mindset" with emotional discipline. Model consistent behaviors to shape culture. And use clear Up-Front Contracts to eliminate confusion and resentment.

Chapter 3: Ryan's Early Sales Roots and Mentorship
00:02:06 – 00:02:59 Ryan shares his background in professional selling and his connection with Mike through UCO's collegiate sales program. He explains how early mentorship and applying learned concepts at work led to tangible results and an enduring professional relationship.
Chapter 4: Attitude Foundations as a Sales Student
00:02:59 – 00:05:27 Ryan emphasizes embracing struggle, maintaining optimism, and staying calm and curious. He highlights asking strong questions, using disqualification when appropriate, and building momentum through repeated effort as core attitude differentiators.
Chapter 5: Behaviors that Create Opportunity
00:05:27 – 00:07:05 Consistency and follow-through become Ryan's standout behaviors, often winning opportunities others missed. He recounts showing up, honoring commitments, and leveraging initiative to access professional circles despite student constraints.
Chapter 6: Techniques that Accelerate Early Success
00:07:05 – 00:09:19 Key techniques include strong upfront contracts, reversing and negative reversing to deepen discovery, and sorting versus selling. Ryan stresses asking hard questions calmly and iterating relentlessly to internalize and scale effective methods.
Chapter 7: Attitude as a Top Individual Contributor
00:09:19 – 00:11:28 Curiosity lowers defensiveness and fosters honest conversations, contrasted with pushy selling stereotypes. He underscores the importance of "not needing the sale" to avoid "commission breath," particularly when pipeline is thin.
Chapter 8: High-Value Behaviors in Sales Execution
00:11:28 – 00:13:21 Ryan details embracing discomfort, intelligent prospecting, and a repeatable system mindset. He uses data-driven reflection to refine processes, evaluate outcomes, and adapt continuously to improve win rates.
Chapter 9: Techniques for Complex, Long Cycles
00:13:21 – 00:14:51 Professional sorting becomes critical in long enterprise cycles, building relationships far ahead of renewal or change windows. Strategic timing and positioning are essential to influence multi-year opportunities.
Chapter 10: Transition to Senior Leadership and Gray Services Overview
00:14:51 – 00:17:18 Ryan describes Gray Services' two-part foam solution for faster utility pole setting, enabling grid expansion amid rising electricity demand. He outlines the company's 1994 origins, rapid scaling, automation plans, and facility expansion.
Chapter 11: Leadership Attitude Under Pressure
00:17:18 – 00:18:59 Leadership amplifies BAT principles: actions over words, leading by example, and using action to drive emotion. Responsibility for livelihoods raises the stakes for mindset discipline and consistency.
Chapter 12: Selling Change Internally
00:18:59 – 00:21:12 Ryan discusses projecting steady, positive energy as teams feel leadership's emotions. He uses upfront contracts and curiosity to lower defensiveness, invite collaboration, and co-create change with long-tenured staff wary of disruption.
Chapter 13: Behavior Consistency Builds Trust
00:21:12 – 00:23:16 Doing what you say you'll do establishes credibility across the organization. Ryan highlights modeling small actions, like picking up trash, to signal standards and align culture amid rapid transformation.
Chapter 14: Leadership Techniques for Clarity and Accountability
00:23:16 – 00:25:58 Upfront contracts shift from sales to internal alignment, clarifying goals, timelines, and expectations to reduce confusion and resentment. Structure makes hard conversations fairer and more consistent, while reversing elicits candid input from those closest to the work.
Chapter 15: Community, Faith, and the Power of a Shared Language
00:25:58 – 00:31:08 Ryan shares how faith, patience, and unforeseen succession accelerated his leadership path. He leveraged the Sandler community for trusted expertise, enabling faster decisions and execution by "cutting through the fluff" with a common framework.
Chapter 16: Final Insights on BAT for Senior Leadership

Gregory Offner is an award-winning keynote speaker and author who focuses on helping organizations improve performance by redesigning the experience of work. Greg was a keynote speaker at the 2026 Sandler Summit, and he introduced the concept of the Encore Experience—a powerful shift in how we think about engagement, culture, and sustainable high performance.
In this conversation, we break down:
- The real driver of most employee performance problems —even when numbers look strong
- How true ownership (versus compliance) impacts long-term performance.
- Why incentives and pressure stop working over time
- Who your internal, and external, audience is; and why it matters.
- When disengagement starts, and the two questions that can stop it in its tracks.
- What leaders can do, right now, to create an "Encore Experience" for their audience.
If you're a business owner, entrepreneur, or sales leader looking to build a high-performing team that's energized, engaged, and sustainable, this episode will give you a new framework to lead by.

Chapter 1: Opening and Theme: The "Encore Experience"
00:00:02 – 00:02:22 Dave Matson frames the podcast's focus on the Success Triangle—attitude, behavior, and technique—then Jim Marshall introduces guest Greg Offner and the premise: performance problems are often experience problems. Greg is positioned as a keynote expert on engagement, ownership, and results, and Jim asks him to define the "encore experience."
Chapter 2: Defining the Encore Experience
00:02:22 – 00:03:42 Greg explains an encore experience as any interaction that leaves people eager to repeat it, like shouting "one more song" at a concert. He argues workplaces should intentionally create encore experiences daily for customers, colleagues, communities, and oneself.
Chapter 3: Engagement Crisis and Opportunity
00:03:42 – 00:05:12 Greg cites long-standing data showing roughly 70% of workers are disengaged, with a subset actively disengaged. He positions encore experiences as both a remedy for struggling cultures and a multiplier for organizations already doing well.
Chapter 4: Creation, Agency, and Meaning at Work
00:05:12 – 00:07:41 Using a story about his daughter and sidewalk chalk, Greg illustrates the innate human joy of being the cause. He argues work should be reframed from obligation to opportunity—especially in sales, where relationships and experiences can be intentionally designed for "encore" reactions.
Chapter 5: Turning Events into Culture
00:07:41 – 00:10:56 Greg outlines a simple, repeatable playbook: meet the audience where they are, add something uniquely yours (or invite their unique contribution), then reflect and refine. He emphasizes consistent application over one-off events and highlights post-call reviews as a natural reflection mechanism.
Chapter 6: Performance Is Interaction: Audience, Not Monologue
00:10:56 – 00:13:58 Greg reframes daily work as performance and every counterpart as an audience member, noting sales should be a dialogue. He introduces the three audience archetypes—keepers, leapers, and sleepers—explaining their motivations in both business and his dueling piano bar experience.
Chapter 7: Sleepers as Trapped Value
00:13:58 – 00:15:14 Sleepers arrived with expectations but disengaged when they felt the experience wouldn't deliver. Greg argues they represent the greatest hidden opportunity and that organizations should provoke strong opinions—positive or negative—rather than indifference.
Chapter 8: High Performers, Voice, and Retention Risk
00:15:14 – 00:19:31 Greg cautions that voicing improvement ideas is a sign of engagement, not insubordination. Ignoring such input drives talent away. He distinguishes leapers and keepers as likely high performers and warns that overreliance on money fails to address root motivations.
Chapter 9: Rock Stars vs. Rock Solids
00:19:31 – 00:21:18 Within keepers, Greg differentiates recognition-seeking rock stars from steady, lifestyle-focused rock solids. Pushing rock solids into rock star trajectories can trigger disengagement; leaders must align motivators to individual preferences.
Chapter 10: Recognition That's Relevant and Unique
00:21:18 – 00:26:58 Greg stresses making recognition meaningful and individualized rather than generic swag. He shares examples: lunches with the boss feeling special to staff, and a server's unique tactic to transform a family meal—illustrating how small, personal touches create loyalty.
Chapter 11: Where Encore Breaks Down in Sales
00:26:58 – 00:29:18 Under pressure, teams default to transactions over experiences. Greg argues that the path to the second sale begins at the first signature, and short-term quota focus erodes value. Designing the sales journey as an enjoyable experience sustains renewals and referrals.
Chapter 12: Small Acts, Big Impact
00:29:18 – 00:36:13 Greg urges leaders to spotlight everyday actions that become meaningful moments, sharing stories of a CEO personally covering an employee's life-saving prescription and a pet food company sending flowers and refunds when a customer's pet dies. Simple, empathetic policies create encore loyalty.
Chapter 13: A Simple Framework to Start Tomorrow
00:36:13 – 00:43:38 Greg advises cataloging everyday interactions and prioritizing low-lift, high-ROI moments internally and externally. He introduces the "request slip" concept from piano bars—ideas need skin in the game—and describes an internal "Shark Tank" process that turns suggestions into actionable requests with executive sponsorship.
Chapter 14: Stop Using Title as Trophy; Start Removing Obstacles
00:43:38 – 00:46:41 Leaders should stop treating titles as rewards and start using them to clear roadblocks. Greg shares his early missteps as a sales manager and emphasizes enabling employees, welcoming ideas from newcomers, and converting suggestions into co-owned requests.
Chapter 15: Results Through Experience, Not Just Accountability
00:46:41 – 00:50:34 Jim summarizes the challenge to traditional performance thinking. Greg clarifies he values results but insists sustainable success depends on how and why results are achieved—shifting from transactions to transformational experiences that drive long-term loyalty.
Chapter 16: Calibrating Ownership to Archetypes
00:50:34 – 00:51:54 Greg cautions against forcing ownership on rock solids who don't want it and reframes sleepers as undecided keepers or leapers. Leaders should help sleepers decide—either by enabling a leap or creating conditions to thrive in place.
Chapter 17: Resources and Close
00:51:54 – end Greg offers an archetype "playlist" resource summarizing keepers, leapers, and sleepers with practical do's and don'ts, and invites contact via his website and social media. The episode closes with acknowledgments and copyright information.
This episode of the How to Succeed Podcast features long-time Sandler Trainer, Sean Coyle interviewing retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Joseph "Doc" Morgan about aligning Sandler's attitudes, behaviors, and techniques with the military's ends, ways, and means. Morgan emphasizes prioritizing will over skill, arguing that attitude and disciplined behaviors enable techniques to be learned through deliberate practice, "reps and sets", and realistic simulations. Joe shares a recruiting command case where a clear, emotionally resonant mission and targeted "bird-dog" prospecting transformed his Air Force Recruiting Squadron from near-bottom to top-ranked nationally.
The discussion stresses planning, readiness, and having resources prepped ("go bag" mindset), plus the importance of emotional commitment to goals, accountability partners, and consistent execution. Morgan closes with the "challenge coin" and a "wolf-pack" ethos to illustrate trust, shared standards, and long-term professional bonds that drive performance.
Chapter 1: Framing Success: Sandler's Triangle and Military Parallels
00:00:02 – 00:04:20 Sandler's Executive Chairman, David Mattson sets the stage with Sandler's success triangle—attitudes, behaviors, and techniques—before host Sean introduces Lt. Col. (Ret.) Joseph "Doc" Morgan. They tee up a discussion connecting Sandler's framework with the military's ends, ways, and means, hinting at friendly debate and practical crossover.
Chapter 2: Will vs. Skill: Hiring, Leading, and Learning
00:04:20 – 00:07:43 Joe equates attitudes/behaviors to will and techniques to skill, emphasizing that will is far harder to teach than skill. He shares leadership lessons from deployments and the private sector: consistent reps, realistic practice, and feedback-driven improvement are the true foundations of adaptability.
Chapter 3: Ends, Ways, Means: A Strategic Lens
00:07:43 – 00:11:34 They map Sandler to strategy: ends as objectives, ways as methods, and means as resources—including people. Joe stresses feasibility and alignment, mentoring others to balance ambition with effort, and spotting risk when high goals aren't matched by planned behaviors and resources.
Chapter 4: Mission Clarity Drives Performance
00:11:34 – 00:16:57 Joe recounts transforming a low-ranked Air Force recruiting squadron by setting a compelling end state: "be bird dogs," not farmers, and source the talent the nation needed. With a clear, higher-purpose mission and tailored incentives, the squadron rose to top rankings nationally.
Chapter 5: Ideal Profiles and Emotional Buy-In
00:16:57 – 00:20:29 Sean links mission clarity to sales by defining ideal client profiles and focusing effort where success likelihood is higher. Joe explains adapting targets by territory demographics, aligning incentives, and reinforcing that emotional connection to purpose sustains consistent, high-value prospecting.
Chapter 6: Reps and Sets: Practice Like It's Real
00:20:29 – 00:23:59 Drawing on weapons school and special operations, Joe explains that realism and repetition build reflexes and excellence. The same principle applies to sales and life: role-plays, simulations, and deliberate practice—done often and with rigor—raise performance under pressure.
Chapter 7: Preparedness: Plan, Stage Resources, Execute
00:23:59 – 00:28:27 They distill readiness into practical habits: plan tomorrow today, stage a "go bag," and know top targets and call objectives. Joe reinforces that plans are thinking tools to prepare for deviations; commitment matters because meaningful objectives require sacrifice and risk.
Chapter 8: Commitment, Accountability, and Consistency
00:28:27 – 00:30:33 The conversation turns to conviction versus aspiration, noting how quickly resolutions fail without behavior change. Joe recommends accountability partners or "wingmen" to bolster consistency, while reminding that the deepest commitment must ultimately be to oneself.
Chapter 9: The Wolf Pack: Tradition, Trust, and Team
00:30:33 – 00:33:19 Sean triggers a challenge coin moment, and Joe explains the tradition as a symbol of mutual commitment and readiness. The squadron motto—strength of the pack and the wolf—underscores lasting professional bonds, instant trust, and collective performance.
Chapter 10: Close and Credits
00:33:19 – end Sean thanks Joe and the audience, noting how the coin forged new connections. The episode closes with credits and a pointer to Sandler services and resources.

This episode promises a remarkable journey into the next era of sales excellence, where strategic foresight and data-driven decision-making take center stage.
Chapter 1: Introduction and Guest Setup
00:00:02 – 00:01:16 Dave Mattson introduces the How to Succeed podcast and frames the focus on attitudes, behaviors, and techniques. He welcomes guest Seth Marrs, Sandler's Chief Strategy Officer, and teases a discussion on where "the puck is going" in tech and AI for sales and leadership.
Chapter 2: The Innovative Revenue Leader Podcast Overview
00:01:16 – 00:02:11 Seth explains his podcast format: deep-dives on a single topic across multiple episodes, featuring varied expert perspectives and a research-driven synthesis. The goal is to provide practical tools and insights leaders can apply to grow revenue.
Chapter 3: Actionable Depth vs. High-Level Concepts
00:02:11 – 00:02:59 Dave highlights the gap between conceptual podcasts and actionable takeaways. Seth confirms they publish companion reports, citing one on five AI-driven capacity levers to ensure listeners leave with concrete steps.
Chapter 4: The AI Hype Cycle and Vendor-Driven Chaos
00:02:59 – 00:04:56 They discuss the rapid acceleration of technology and AI since 2020 and a vendor-fueled market pushing "AI" everywhere. Executive pressure to "do AI" leads to misaligned investments, often neglecting foundational needs like data hygiene.
Chapter 5: Why AI Initiatives Fail and What Works
00:04:56 – 00:06:08 Referencing studies with high AI failure rates, Seth argues success comes from mapping and improving specific processes with AI, not buying tools to fix problems. Proven change still follows process-first, tool-second discipline.
Chapter 6: Pressure, Waste, and Upcoming Market Correction
00:06:08 – 00:08:41 Dave notes external pressure to adopt AI creates fear of being left behind. Both anticipate a near-term shift toward smarter, ROI-focused adoption, driven by CFO scrutiny and repeatable success stories clarifying where AI truly adds value.
Chapter 7: Overlapping Tools and the "Can It Do It vs. Is It Good?" Test
00:08:41 – 00:10:24 They unpack redundancy in tech stacks (e.g., multiple tools that "write emails"). The real question is output quality and contextual relevance, echoing prior dynamics like using LinkedIn for accuracy and ZoomInfo for phone numbers.
Chapter 8: Education Gap and Overpromising Vendors
00:10:24 – 00:11:18 Most practitioners don't understand nuanced tool differences, exacerbated by vendors claiming universal AI capability. This fuels confusion and misaligned purchasing.
Chapter 9: Where the Puck Is Going: Data, Infrastructure, and Enablement
00:11:18 – 00:12:49 AI performance will only improve; organizations investing in data and infrastructure will compound gains. Seth predicts a transformation in enablement and training through conversation intelligence and role-play powered by GenAI.
Chapter 10: From Training Events to Continuous, Visible Reinforcement
00:12:49 – 00:14:24 Enablement evolves from one-off training to ongoing assessment across calls and emails, with clear visibility into who applies the methodology and the outcomes. Leaders gain unprecedented insight to reinforce and optimize.
Chapter 11: Science Over Art in Sales Performance
00:14:24 – 00:16:28 Dave likens the shift to medicine and pro sports: from art to data-driven science with MRIs and video review. Sales can now diagnose reality over self-reported optimism, though increased transparency may feel threatening to some.
Chapter 12: Tools Elevate but Don't Replace Excellence
00:16:28 – 00:19:30 Seth asserts technology equips practitioners but doesn't eliminate the performance spectrum. Blindly following AI produces average results; top performers synthesize AI with judgment, adapting to context shifts like those during COVID.
Chapter 13: Empowering High Performers and Institutionalizing Wins
00:19:30 – 00:21:28 AI can surface winning patterns from "rogue" top sellers and scale them across teams. Digital playbooks can capture best moments across individuals, but most organizations still fail to build and maintain them.
Chapter 14: Culture, Curiosity, and Leveling the Field
00:21:28 – 00:22:55 Resistance stems from human nature and legacy structures that reward tenure over curiosity. The new environment favors sellers committed to craft, learning, and experimentation, expanding their opportunities.
Chapter 15: Manager Adoption and the Coaching Opportunity
00:22:55 – 00:24:36 Historically, reps learned from call libraries more than managers used them. Pressure is mounting on managers to leverage these tools, shifting from generic call quotas to event-driven, targeted coaching triggers.
Chapter 16: Span of Control and Precision Coaching
00:24:36 – 00:25:59 AI-driven diagnostics will increase managers' span of control by automating detection of coachable moments. Time shifts from ride-alongs and full-call reviews to focused intervention on specific gaps tied to deal impact.
Chapter 17: Practical Playbook for Sales Leaders
00:25:59 – 00:27:39 Leaders should adopt tech for pinpoint coaching, grounded in recorded calls and captured emails. This enables loss mitigation via timely intervention, delivering more performance with less wasted managerial time.
Chapter 18: Rethinking CRO Metrics and Forecasting
00:27:39 – 00:29:47 For CROs and owners, the mandate is a new set of leading indicators sourced from conversation and engagement data. Forecasts should become byproducts of actual selling activity rather than self-reported, error-prone rollups.
Chapter 19: From Guesswork to Evidence-Based Operations
00:29:47 – 00:32:20 Leaders gain the ability to make forward-looking decisions from real interactions, not hedged numbers. Reclaiming time spent on forecasting and discovering bespoke conversational indicators creates durable competitive advantages.
Chapter 20: Closing Guidance: Start Small, Solve One Problem
00:32:20 – end Seth advises choosing a single, well-defined problem, mapping it to a solvable action with a tool, and executing. Mastery and confidence build through iterative wins, avoiding the trap of broad, unfocused AI implementations. Dave closes by recapping takeaways and promoting Seth's podcast.
Podcast Summary This episode of the How To Succeed Podcast features watch entrepreneur Alan Tsao of the Tsao Baltimore Watch Company, tracing his journey from childhood fascination to launching a successful watch brand. After an initial manufacturing failure and losing early partners, Alan persisted, refined designs, leveraged mentorship, and achieved a breakout 2017 Kickstarter that far surpassed its goal via low-cost, gamified marketing.
Tsao built trust with global manufacturers through in-person visits, grew through proactive behaviors and strategic partnerships (National Bohemian, McCormick Old Bay Seasoning, the Baltimore Ravens, the Baltimore Orioles, and the University of Maryland Athletic Dept.), and is developing notable projects like a Francis Scott Key Memorial Bridge watch - using actual bridge steel - with profits donated to victims' families after the fatal bridge disaster in March, 2024.

Chapter 3: From Childhood Fascination to Passion Project
00:01:15 – 00:03:35 Alan traces his love of watches to a gift at age ten and explains his obsession with mechanical movements. As his career advanced, he built a 35–40 watch collection before deciding, with a nudge from his wife, to start designing his own watches.
Chapter 4: Early Missteps and Losing Initial Partners
00:03:35 – 00:07:03 While working in property management, Alan looped in executives as early partners and sourced a manufacturer via a quick Google search. The first prototypes were low quality, scaring off his partners; he refunded them and bootstrapped forward, seeking advice from other microbrands to refine designs and supply chain.
Chapter 5: Attitude—Learning From Failure and Pushing Forward
00:07:03 – 00:11:23 Prompted by Sandler's "attitude" lens, Alan reframes failure as learning rather than stopping. He emphasizes determination, confidence, and never giving up, aligning with the concept of "failing forward" to refine processes.
Chapter 6: Breakthrough Kickstarter and Lean Marketing
00:11:23 – 00:14:58 After vastly improved prototypes, Alan launched a 2017 Kickstarter with a $45,000 goal, surpassing it in three hours and finishing at ~$115,000. He attributes traction to a $500–$800 gamified referral campaign that generated ~2,000 emails and ~25% conversion.
Chapter 7: Global Sourcing and Trust-Building
00:15:13 – 00:17:57 Between 2017 and 2022, Alan traveled to Hong Kong and Switzerland to meet manufacturers. In-person relationships built trust, improved terms, and elevated product quality, strengthening credibility and operational know-how.
Chapter 8: Going Full-Time, Investor Catalyst, and Hypergrowth
00:18:38 – 00:23:03 Weighing life choices post-Covid, Alan met an investor through a retail event who first commissioned 250 custom watches, then offered capital. After due diligence and valuation work, Alan accepted the deal, resigned, and the company grew 150–200% the following year.
Chapter 9: Behavior—Showing Up Leads to Opportunity
00:23:03 – 00:23:53 Chris highlights the behavioral discipline of attending events and hustling while employed. Proactive behaviors, not chance, drove encounter-based breakthroughs and subsequent growth.
Chapter 10: Strategic Partnerships—Natty Boh, Old Bay, Orioles, Ravens
00:23:53 – 00:27:47 Alan details collaborations beginning with National Bohemian via Instagram outreach and a fortuitous family contact leading to McCormick/Old Bay. Successive momentum earned projects with the Ravens and an official licensing partnership with the Orioles to cement local brand identity.
Chapter 11: The Key Bridge Watch—Local Manufacturing and Giving Back
00:27:47 – 00:30:33 Tsao Baltimore is producing a watch using actual steel from the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge, with 85% of components made in Maryland. All profits support victims' families, while the project advances local manufacturing R&D.
Chapter 12: Expanding into Education and Sports Memorabilia
00:30:21 – 00:34:27 As official timepiece of University of Maryland Athletics, Alan plans "class watch" programs for schools as an alternative to rings. He previews an Orioles initiative using player-worn jerseys as mystery watch dials with signed player cards, enabling community trading events.
Chapter 13: Proudest Moments—First Sale and Family Validation
00:34:27 – 00:36:48 Alan recalls the emotional impact of the first full-price online sale. A second defining moment came when his young son said, "I'm proud of you, daddy," affirming the deeper family purpose behind the business.
Chapter 14: Capabilities and Services at the New Workshop
00:36:48 – 00:37:24 The new facility houses certified watchmakers capable of servicing luxury brands, acting as a U.S. repair hub for jewelers and independent watch companies.
Chapter 15: Advice to Aspiring Entrepreneurs
00:37:24 – end Drawing on his teaching at the University of Baltimore, Alan urges aspiring founders to start, learn by doing, and iterate through trial and error. He stresses overcoming comfort zones, accepting risk, and avoiding regret by taking the first step.
Podcast Summary This episode of the How to Succeed Podcast features NFL Hall of Famer Rondé Barber discussing how preparation, consistency, adaptability, and humble leadership fueled his 16-year career, 215 consecutive starts, and post-football success in broadcasting and business.
Rondé emphasizes daily incremental improvement, rigorous study translating to business "film prep," evolving the nickel corner role through responsibility and versatility, and the impact of mentors and coaches like Tony Dungy on building calm, steady, plan-driven teams.
Join us as we learn key takeaways for sales and business leaders including, preparing deeply to create confidence, maintaining disciplined routines for consistency, and adapting to change to reinvent roles and achieve lasting results.
Chapter 1: Opening and Guest Introduction
00:00:02 – 00:01:59 Dave Mattson, Executive Chairman of Sandler introduces the How to Succeed podcast's success triangle—Attitude, Behavior, and Technique—and frames the episode's theme: translating elite athletic performance to business. Jim Marshall presents guest Rondé Barber, highlighting his NFL legacy, leadership roles, and focus on preparation, consistency, adaptability, and professionalism.
Chapter 2: Early Struggles and the Mindset Shift
00:01:59 – 00:05:41 Barber recounts a rocky NFL start, playing only one game his rookie season, and the doubt that fueled his drive. He connects lessons from redshirting in college and overcoming setbacks to a career-long mentality of outworking everyone and relentlessly improving.
Chapter 3: Availability, Durability, and Discipline
00:05:41 – 00:08:38 Discussing his 215 consecutive starts, Barber cites "availability" as a critical ability, playing through pain, smart recovery modalities, and some luck in avoiding major injuries. He underscores the discipline to maintain routines and the motivation to never let someone else take his job.
Chapter 4: Building Performance Routines and Incremental Gains
00:08:38 – 00:11:00 Barber outlines a philosophy that you are either getting better or worse each day. He describes daily incremental improvement—refining techniques, studying opponents, and analyzing himself—as a transferable approach for business professionals and even his daughters' pursuits.
Chapter 5: Preparation = Opportunity
00:11:00 – 00:13:49 Barber explains how preparation creates the appearance of effortlessness, framing success as preparation married to opportunity. He applies this to broadcasting and event leadership: anticipate scenarios, study past outcomes, plan for contingencies, and be ready to execute.

A personal anecdote underscores the lasting impact of genuine passion and excellence, while Stanley Marcus's wisdom about sales is quoted to reinforce the value of client relationships. The chapter concludes with advice on maintaining peak performance through non-negotiable daily disciplines and the importance of being a time miser to eliminate frivolity and focus on meaningful interactions and tasks.
(43:33) Inner Conviction for Sales Success
This chapter challenges us to rethink our approach to success by focusing on the mindset and conviction we bring to our daily lives. Instead of searching for external tactics, Krish Dhanam encourages us to recognize that true success lies within us and is influenced by our thoughts and actions. It's a reminder that while tactical strategies are important, the foundation of success is built on our internal mindset and how we engage with our goals. As we reflect on this, the chapter leaves us with the powerful insight that success is as much about our internal perspective as it is about external actions. Until next time, keep this mindset in focus for good selling.

We discuss the importance of viewing technology as a tool or teammate rather than a replacement for human interaction, emphasizing that technology should support and not replace the critical relationship-building aspect of sales. We highlight the potential pitfalls of over-reliance on technology, such as hiding behind it or using it as a crutch, which can lead to issues like sending inaccurate information. Emphasizing a growth mindset, we urge embracing new technological advancements and making the best use of the tools available, even if they aren't our first choice.

This chapter explores the crucial intersection of behavior and technique when adopting new technology, especially in sales. We emphasize the importance of understanding and utilizing tools like CRM systems and voice intelligence to their full potential to drive change and efficiency. A month of regular use typically suffices to get comfortable with new tech, but ongoing engagement and self-reflection are essential. For instance, using call recording technology not only aids in note-taking but also enhances self-assessment by allowing sales reps to review and refine their communication strategies.

This chapter features a conversation with Phil Putnam, author of "Desired Based Leadership," where we explore his unique approach to driving top performance by aligning personal desires with workplace goals. Phil shares his early experiences learning about communication and relationship-building from his mother, which influenced his leadership style. He emphasizes the importance of understanding and prioritizing the personal aspirations of team members to foster motivation and performance. Rather than focusing solely on the company’s success, Phil argues that leaders should support employees in achieving their personal life goals through their work. This approach not only enhances motivation but also reduces friction, creating a win-win scenario for both the employee and the organization. We also touch on why this method is not more widely adopted, despite its evident benefits.
(05:46) Motivating Performance Through Personal Goals
This chapter explores the disconnect between company-imposed goals and personal motivation, emphasizing the importance of aligning personal aspirations with professional objectives to drive employee engagement. We discuss how many organizations fail to make this connection, often due to generational differences in leadership, where older generations value loyalty to a company over individual desires. This misalignment can hinder employee motivation, especially in a remote work environment where interactions are more transactional. By highlighting the need for a shift in perspective, we address how understanding and incorporating personal goals into company culture can enhance productivity and satisfaction. Additionally, we touch on how remote work might influence this dynamic by potentially reducing the human element in daily interactions.
(11:15) Overcoming Leadership Resistance
This chapter explores the challenges and resistance faced by organizations when attempting to implement change, particularly in leadership and sales environments. We examine the complex dynamics between senior leadership and their responsibilities, acknowledging the pressures they face while emphasizing the need for servant leadership.

This chapter explores the financial implications of employee attrition and retention strategies. We break down the staggering costs of replacing individual contributors, highlighting that replacing a $150,000 employee can cost up to $225,000. In contrast, providing a 10% raise to retain high performers costs significantly less, making it a financially sound strategy. We also address the common practice of promoting top-performing salespeople into leadership roles without considering their interest or aptitude for management. This has become an entrenched habit, influenced by a historical lack of focus on developing genuine leadership skills and the pressures of sales leadership roles. Finally, we discuss the tendency of sales leaders to revert to their comfort zones, focusing on processes and strategies when under pressure, rather than investing in their people as key business assets.
(31:18) Leadership Mindsets and Behaviors for Success
This chapter explores the essential components of success, emphasizing the importance of mindset, behavior, and technique. We examine how a leader's understanding of their team's motivations can drive performance, stressing that individuals are often more motivated by personal goals than company success. The conversation highlights a significant gap in hiring practices, noting that companies often fail to assess whether a role aligns with a candidate's personal aspirations. This oversight can lead to suboptimal performance. Additionally, we discuss the parallels between sales techniques and effective hiring, suggesting that sales leaders, with their skills in discovery and value-based selling, are well-equipped to enhance hiring processes by focusing on the candidate's goals and motivations.
(44:17) Discovering Employee Motivations for Success
This chapter explores the dynamics of embracing differing perspectives in a business environment to foster innovation and improvement. We begin with an anecdote about the value of integrating a 'mismatcher' into decision-making processes, highlighting how leveraging opposing viewpoints can enhance the quality of new ideas and initiatives. This approach transforms potential resistance into a valuable asset. Additionally, we discuss the critical importance of distinguishing between obstruction and constructive disruption, ensuring that differing opinions serve to improve rather than hinder progress. We also emphasize the necessity of understanding employees' personal goals and aligning them with organizational objectives to unlock their highest performance. This involves discovering what employees truly desire and assessing whether the company can meet those needs, thereby creating a mutually beneficial relationship. The chapter concludes with insights into maintaining ongoing alignment with employees' evolving goals to sustain their engagement and motivation over time.

(00:00) Improving Time Management for Sales Managers
This chapter focuses on the intricacies of time management for sales managers, with insights from Dan Stout, a world-class performance consultant and trainer at Sandler. We explore the common struggles with multitasking, debunking the myth that it is always beneficial. Dan emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between cognitive tasks that require focused attention and routine tasks that can be managed simultaneously. We also touch on the significance of proactive planning to avoid the pitfalls of reactive behavior, which often results in a chaotic day. By incorporating structured time blocks and avoiding learned helplessness among team members, sales leaders can enhance productivity and create a more respectful and effective work environment.
(08:39) Prioritizing Vital Functions for Sales Managers
This chapter explores the importance of focus and prioritization in leadership and productivity. We discuss how successful leaders manage their time by identifying three or fewer vital functions to concentrate on daily, rather than trying to accomplish everything at once. By categorizing tasks with color coding, such as green for income-generating activities, leaders can quickly assess their productivity and ensure they are spending the majority of their time on crucial tasks. We emphasize the difference between being intentional with priorities and simply reacting to daily demands, highlighting the tendency for some to focus on easy tasks instead of the essential ones. We also touch on the DISC personality model to understand how different personality types can influence time management and delegation skills.
(15:23) Leadership Strategies for Time Management
This chapter explores the intricate relationship between time management and personality types using the DISC model. With 19 years of coaching experience, I reflect on how different personality traits influence our time management challenges and strategies. For Dominants (D), the challenge lies in prioritization and delegation to prevent overloading themselves. Influencers (I) often struggle with saying no due to their people-pleasing nature. Steady personalities (S) procrastinate to maintain peace, while Conscientious types (C) are hindered by the need for perfection. I suggest practical tips, like encouraging Cs to start projects and perfect them along the way, much like a sailboat adjusting its course. Additionally, I address the role of leaders in modeling effective time management for their teams, emphasizing the importance of being a credible example for others to seek advice. If a leader is not perceived as efficient, team members may not be inclined to seek guidance, highlighting the necessity for leaders to continuously work on their time management skills.
(23:49) Mastering Sales Time Management
This chapter focuses on effective time management for sales leaders by introducing the Sandler concept known as the "cookbook."

By reverse engineering necessary actions, such as face-to-face meetings and outbound calls, and focusing on consistent effort, sales leaders can create a predictable path to success. The discussion highlights how this structured approach not only guides salespeople in balancing time between growing existing accounts and seeking new opportunities but also helps them avoid the pitfalls of procrastination, akin to a runner's dilemma when bad weather disrupts their training schedule.

He explains how the book was born during the COVID-19 pandemic when he realized the need to make the powerful lessons from the course accessible to a wider audience. We explore the transition from focusing solely on product knowledge to emphasizing effective communication, especially in high-stakes roles like senior account management. One key concept Matt introduces is reflective listening, which goes beyond the traditional notion of listening by actively engaging with the speaker and providing feedback to ensure a mutual understanding. This approach not only clarifies communication but also encourages further dialogue, paving the way for a more collaborative relationship with clients.
(10:42) Building Trust in Sales Communication
This chapter explores the crucial role of reflection and trust in effective sales communication.

By acknowledging and addressing problems openly, we not only defuse potential negativity but also build trust with customers. We emphasize the importance of bringing issues to the table proactively, fostering a shared journey with customers where intentions and progress are transparently communicated. Trust becomes the cornerstone of this relationship, especially during the discovery phase of sales, which is pivotal in either nurturing or damaging the customer relationship.

Drawing parallels to a doctor's responsibility, we highlight the seller's role in addressing customer needs through learned communication skills. The chapter also introduces actionable behaviors, such as employing the high school speech model of telling, reinforcing, and recapping key points, which enhances clarity and direction in meetings, especially in corporate environments. This approach not only facilitates effective internal communication but also ensures alignment and purpose throughout any sales interaction.

We also discuss practicing reflective listening in low-risk environments like conversations with family and friends, particularly with children, to hone the skill. Additionally, there's an engaging comparison to personal relationships, where the urge to "fix" is contrasted with the need to simply listen.

In this episode, we discuss buying a franchise with Josh Dubois. Most people consider business ownership to replace income or build generational wealth. Franchising fast-tracks starting a business by providing systems and resources. Josh recommends exploring options over 1-2 months without pressure to decide.

This lifestyle change inspired Josh to pursue business ownership before becoming a franchise broker to help others without promoting any specific franchise.

In this episode, we sit down with Duane Cerny, the author of Dead People’s Things, to discuss the sales lessons from selling vintage furniture and clothing. Dwayne explains how he decided to switch career paths from a lawyer to a business selling mid-century modern furniture when he was around the age of 30.
He had been doing other businesses that had been successful, and he remembered fondly his childhood spent in his mother's basement, surrounded by furniture from the 1950s. He was able to live on just $1,000 a month and put any money he made back into the business. 32 years later, he owns the largest multi-dealer antique store in Chicago.

A good salesperson is more like a coach, and their goal is to help the client discover what their needs are and whether the product is a good fit for them.

An Essay from our founder, David H. Sandler:
Thank You, Prospects
FOR every turndown, which made me stronger even though at the time I thought it was the end of my career.
FOR every backout which left me disappointed and discouraged…and a special apology for all the 4-letter words that went through my mind at the time.
FOR not showing up for a Monday morning appointment that had been confirmed, and one which I was worried about all weekend…you taught me how to relax and enjoy my family…seven days a week.
FOR every “I want to think it over”… until I became angry enough to learn how to deal with a stall which had no substance except in my own mind.
FOR every other stall and objection I have never been able to find in any sales training manual…which made me a better salesperson by forcing me to use my creativity in order to find a response.
FOR teaching me that money is a conceptual thing and not a technical thing, and that you only had as much money as I was strong enough to ask for…even though it had no relationship to what you really would have spent for what I was selling.
FOR every ignored voicemail, text, DM, and email…which taught me how to bring value and earn your attention.
FOR every conversation I had with my family where I had to defend the business of selling which eventually even convinced me that selling was a worthwhile, legitimate profession…in spite of what you were telling me and anyone who would listen.
…AND a final thank you, for putting up with my ineptness, my fears, my worries, my self-doubt, my introversion, and all the other self-limitations I placed upon myself, which only by practicing on you, could I have learned to overcome to become the professional I am today.

Kyle Jepson and Mike Montague, instructors in this new course, talk about why salespeople fail to connect in prospecting calls and how you can bring more relevance and credibility to your sales conversations.

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to properly introduce yourself and your company in a way that drives engaging sales conversations.

Reading Other People in Sales: How to Influence, Persuade, and Close Deals
Sales are all about relationships. To be successful, you need to be able to build trust and rapport with your potential customers. And one of the best ways to do that is by reading other people.
When you're in a sales situation, reading about other people can help you understand their needs and desires. It can also help you influence and persuade them to buy what you're selling. And finally, it can help you close the deal and get the sale.
Greg Orth is a long-time Sandler trainer from Lancaster, Pennsylvania and he will help us understand why reading other people can help you close more deals!

- D-style (Dominance)
- I-style (Influence)
- S-style (Steadiness)
- C-style (Correctness)

The Next Evolution of Sales
Inspired by the transformation that we’ve all seen firsthand in the sales industry over the last few years – from the disruptions of virtual selling and remote work to innovative companies and technologies bringing new alignment between buyers and sellers - Sandler is excited to announce our commitment to further champion the next evolution of sales.
Throughout our 50-year history, Sandler pioneered the concepts of discovery-based, consultative selling, reinforcement training, and a holistic view of personal and professional success in sales and leadership. It has always been a part of our journey to empower professionals to master the craft of selling, with the ultimate goal of changing the entire sales profession for the better.
It is with that vision that we are rebranding our company to better align with the expectations of modern buyer and seller, serve our clients with cutting-edge learning technologies and methodologies, and continue our evolution as an organization offering more than “training.”
Along with our new look and name, we seek to re-establish the core elements that we believe elevate the Sandler experience above our competition and drive results for our clients, our partners, and our learners. Core elements include:
- Connection with the Modern Buyer: A buyer-focused discovery process to create more engaging experiences for buyers and sellers.
- Customizable Learner Journeys: Personalized for individual’s strengths and goals.
- Collaborative Coaching: Modernized delivery with a blend of experiential learning, gamification, and flexible pacing.
- Ongoing Reinforcement: Continuous guidance for new professional and life stages.
- Technology-Enabled Solutions: Adaptive content and techniques for evolving technologies.
- Personal Transformation: Lasting behavior and change to succeed in and outside of the sales profession.
Our mission is to provide ongoing guidance and resources to enable anyone in a revenue-generating or leadership role to reach new levels of success. As a coaching organization to sales professionals around the globe, we know that our journey is never done. We respect our history and continue to learn from it.
We hope that you will join us in taking the next steps forward in the evolution of the sales profession, in the elevation of your career, and ultimately, excel in your professional and personal life.
Mike Montague interviews Kevin Roth on How to Succeed at Finding Your Niche. Find Kevin at: https://kevinroth.org/ Kevin Roth began to play the dulcimer in 1972 at the old age of thirteen, and at sixteen recorded his first album for Folkways / Smithsonian Folkways Records, which immediately launched him into international fame. Between 1974 and 1984 Roth recorded ten albums with this label, establishing himself as a prominent folk singer and dulcimer player. In 1984, Roth performed the theme to the PBS-TV children’s show Shining Time Station, which brought him to another new and much larger market. His friendship and collaboration in 2006 with Noel Paul Stookey, of the legendary folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary, further cemented Roth in American folk history. His career took him to concert and symphony stages around the world, to festivals, radio, television shows, and two appearances at the White House.
As his career grew, Roth became professionally and financially successful, winning numerous awards and partnering with prominent companies such as Sony, National Geographic, PBS, Random House, and Time Warner. Then came a sudden diagnosis of Melanoma, and it changed his life. He had a choice to accept a death sentence or to live. He chose life. Through adapting and combining techniques from his music and performance practice with others that he researched, he found a simple and powerful method to change how he lived. Roth discovered how to not just survive but to become truly happy and thrive.
Roth now guides individuals and groups in the discovery of what really matters to them, how to accomplish their goals, and how handling stress is an essential factor in a healthy life.

Mike Montague interviews Pete Oliver on How to Succeed at Making the Climb to Sales Leadership. Pete is an award-winning Sandler training from Boston, now in Hawaii and also Texas! He is author of the new Sandler book, Making the Climb: From Salesperson to Sales Manager and Beyond!
Making the Climb by Peter Oliver is the antidote to the “sink or swim” approach that sabotages too many aspiring sales professionals. Most emerging sales managers receive little or no training before taking on the job. That is a huge mistake. The climb from individual contributor to manager is worth planning and preparing for, because this role is not only among the toughest on the organizational chart, but it is also the one that offers the most upside (and downside), both personally and for the organization.

This is a special bonus episode, a look back at this year’s Sandler Summit and one of our opening keynotes by Andy McCredie. He is a Sandler trainer from the UK and did a killer hour-long talk on closing the sale. The full talk is available in Sandler Online. Here are some quick tips on How to Succeed at Closing more Sales.
For many salespeople, closing is the hardest part of the sales process. It can create fear and discomfort and be the source of major frustration. Sales leaders aspire to have strong closers who return to the office with deals, not promises. Salespeople want to be confident closers, but even the best can fail and are often left confused as to why they didn't close a deal.
This session is a closing masterclass - a blueprint for the process, skillset, and mindset for closing more quickly, easily, profitably and consistently.

Amy Woodall, Sandler trainer from Indianapolis and host of our online course for Dealing with Difficult People and Situations, shares her thoughts about how to handle challenging situations in business.
As a business professional, you undoubtedly have experienced several difficult situations similar to the following:
- “Where is my shipment?! I need it now!”
- “What’s wrong with you people? You never get it right!”
- “This is the last straw. I’m through doing business here.”
- “Can’t you break the rules for me this one time? I’m a good customer here!”
No matter what your position is in the organization, you will have to deal with angry, upset or difficult people at some point. It’s part of the job, but many people find it to be a stressful part of their day, which can lead to burnout unless there is an established, step-by-step process in place. Managers have difficult conversations with employees, salespeople have difficult negotiations, and other frontline positions deal with difficult customers and demands regularly.
This new online self-study course from Sandler will look at difficult people and situations. What makes them difficult? Why do we often feel uncomfortable with these situations? How do we avoid getting into these situations? How can we use proven Sandler techniques to institute a step-by-step process to resolve conflict without escalating it? And, how can we fix both the problem and the upset customer while still maintaining our own confidence and self-esteem?
This course includes dozens of resources and four main lessons:
- Understanding Yourself and Keeping Your Composure
- Understanding Others and What Makes Them Difficult
- Preventing Difficult Situations
- Dealing with Difficult People & Situations
These communication and success principles come from our Strategic Customer Care training program delivered by Sandler trainers in over 275 locations around the world.

A concise and structured approach to third-party sales management that blends many of the tools and the rigor of Sandler Training with specific guidance for channel managers.

Regardless of what it’s called, this model presents both special challenges and special opportunities. Whether you are an early-stage venture or a small vendor of products, intellectual property, or services looking to build your footprint quickly and reliably; whether you already have a channel process in place and you want to improve or revitalise it, or you are aiming to create your first channel program from scratch; whether you are working with a group of independent agents or you are looking to build a franchise operation from the ground up—this book has been written with you in mind.

What if Sandler Training wasn’t about sales, management or customer service? What if it wasn’t even about communication skills or learning how to succeed? What would it be about?
Could it be about changing or even saving lives?
At Sandler, we talk a lot about finding and fixing pain. Sometimes pain is physical and real, and sometimes is emotional or even imagined. But what we know for sure is that PAIN is a very strong motivating force, and most people will do anything to relieve it.
That’s why we learn questioning strategies like the Pain Funnel, a proven set of questions designed to help people realize and deal with their pain. Most of the time in sales, we uncover surface problems or business reasons, but sometimes it is personal and emotional. And that is when it is real pain.
We recommend you memorize the Pain Funnel questions because the right questions might save your life or someone else’s… This is a true story from one of our clients.
“I got a text message yesterday from my children’s mother saying she was going to end her life. I called her immediately, and she answered in tears stating that she had lost her children, lost her love, and was done with life.
My initial response without forethought was to fall back on my sales training, I asked “What do you mean, tell me more about that, please.” She responded saying her life was over. I asked, “What you mean and how long has it been that you have been feeling this way?”
She told me that ever since she had left me and the children, she had been addicted to prescription narcotics and in an abusive relationship. By this time, I am in my vehicle racing to her home. I asked her, “Since this realization, what has she tried to do to get help or leave?”
She responded saying she had tried to stop using and tried to leave her lover many times. I told her clearly this has failed to work, and she agreed. I asked her what it has cost her?
She then told me that this has cost her, her family, children, and life… With a lump in my throat I asked her what she was feeling coming to this realization.
By this time, I had arrived at her house and was going to find her. I found a beaten woman who was in the process of ending her life. At this point, I pulled my wallet out and showed her a picture of my beautiful 6-year-old son and my amazing 13-year-old daughter… and asked her, “Are you going to give up on them? And are you done fighting?”
At that point she dropped what she had in her hands and allowed me to call for help. Less than 24 hours later, she is on a plane to Colorado to a treatment center for addiction and spiritual healing.
The skills you teach far surpass sales… You teach how to meet people where they are and to get the root of issues and pain. I thank you, I fully believe without the questioning skills you have instilled in me, I would not have had the clarity to get through to her and my children’s mother may not be here.”
We hope you never need them for this reason, but we will leave you with one question. How good are your questioning skills?

Likewise, Sandler Training will bring Ziglar Inc. more into the corporate arena by allowing the company to offer specific Sandler courses to Ziglar clientele.
Years of mutual respect and admiration for each other’s successes has led to this alliance. “We realize and appreciate the impact Sandler’s had on the corporate world,” says Tom Ziglar. “So we want this alliance to help bring the Ziglar message into the corporate world.”
A driving force for these companies to align began with the idea that millennials are often unsure of what career path they want to go down. Ziglar’s motivational content mixed together with Sandler’s sales training techniques ensures a millennial’s success. “Our combined offerings create a powerful learning path for millennials as well as all levels and generations throughout an organization,” says David Mattson, President and CEO of Sandler Training.
The proven and timeless principles of David H. Sandler and Zig Ziglar continue to drive success for companies and individuals, and both Sandler and Ziglar have demonstrated the ability to transfer those proven and timeless principles into today’s ever-changing and evolving business landscape.
“I love that the biggest name in sales joins the biggest name in motivation,” Ziglar emphasizes. “The corporate world needs what Ziglar has and Sandler is the world leader in helping corporations achieve their revenue goals, which enhances our offerings.”
Sandler Training is known in the industry for its techniques and skills with sales training while Ziglar Inc. is recognized specifically for the attitude portion of effective leadership training. Mattson states, “if you can meld those two together, it’s just a winning combination.”
