You could be an operator, a maker and multiplier

Be better than before, than yesterday...

There are three things that you can progress through in your life:    as an operator, a maker, or a multiplier

    1.  An operator -  you follow the work rules, the job description and do what you are told;   you dare not

         venture beyond the four squares and you get your pay  8 - 5 and then you retire.  Nothing ever                     changes

    If you ever one wants to go beyond himself he must ask himself:

    1.   Does this thing challenge me?

    2.  Can this affect other mans life

    3.  Can this change the world

  2.  A maker -  an inventor, an innovator.  A participant in Genesis 1:28  Somebody who goes beyond the

       four lines.    He participates in the continuing creation.  He is out to create an impact to the world.

       He realizes the impact of his life in the community and for others

  3.  A multiplier  - Somebody who is a sower and multiplies his impact to the community and the world

       This applies to a teacher, a leader, a community worker, a company CEO, an author.  An influencer.

       His value goes beyond his own community  and locality

WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

Can you stand receiving $2K per day just standing within the 4 lines?

Strive to be the best

Be better than before, than yesterday...

Forceful and smart selling advice by Machiavelli

Forceful and smart selling advice by Machiavelli

The sales advice was probably adopted from the lines taught at Machiavellis Prin

There are 5 tactics:

The Illusion of Choice Technique (advanced closing strategy) ✔️ How to create scarcity and urgency in sales ✔️ The power of psychological triggers in marketing ✔️ Narrative control and authority positioning ✔️ The Strategic Retreat Method (reverse psychology in selling)

1. The illusion of choice

Control the choice. Do not give the customer unlimited choice

But actually the choice has been made. By employing the good

better strategy. Good is the more expensive and then presenting the

more affordable. It is often a used word: decision becomes inevitable

2. Creating scarcity:

Fear sells. It is better to be feared rather than loved

Either by telling shortage in inventory, or time frame. When there is risk or danger, a person rush to make decision We are adopting this in Temu marketing promos beginning March 16. Limited promo items, and campaigns running 4 weeks at most.

FOMO (fear of missing out)

3. Psychological triggers

Mask of authencity. Perceived authencity. Skill appears trustworth.

One who can give a good advice to build trust.

Appear to be one with them, but actually pushes own agenda

4. Narrative control of authority

Ask question vs defending. Stay on offense.

Appear to be the expert

5. Strategic withdrawal

Dont be desperate. Appear to be not needing tthe agent.

1. Now is not the best time

2. Maybe you need to have more research

Do you appear to be manipulative? But are you not selling everyday. ?

Machiavellis thought on selling

Firehose situation; hell week at MIT, how to raise P100,000 in one month - they force you to be resilient and entreprenuerial, and resourceful

Be better than before, than yesterday...

The MIT monk mentions his stint at MIT about firehose, (and or Hell Week)  Having a situation where there are so many tasks that seem to be impossible to finish.    Then you learn to delegate, collaborate, and have a system.  Otherwise you will fail.

Then at Golman Sachs, their assignment in real world (and this is for the sellers) to raise P100,000 in your personal income in one month.  That is tough if you are not resourceful and you are thinking 8-5 worker.  I am happy that when this was assigned to the latest batch of trainees, they came through.   Marketing people should be subjected to that kind of situation or given that exercise
