How do you keep your team fired up for the daily grind of marketing when every door knocked or flyer handed out feels like a small battle?

This episode dives into the motivations that fuel ground marketing success, not just today, but for the long haul. Michael offers strategies that blend the science of internal drive with the enticing pull of external rewards, revealing why relying on only one kind of motivation just doesn’t cut it for ongoing, high-energy performance.

Discover practical ways to spark enthusiasm and resilience in your outreach teams, from turning mundane tasks into engaging challenges to celebrating even the smallest wins. The discussion breaks down how to set achievable micro-goals, link activities to deeper personal values, and reframe setbacks as stepping stones. By the end, you’ll walk away with a toolkit designed to keep your marketing engine running at full speed, without risking burnout or loss of purpose!

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • The crucial difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation (and why you need both.)
  • Proven tactics like gamification, role rotation, and celebrating progress (not just outcomes.)
  • How to reframe rejection and keep spirits high during persistent outreach.
  • The process of anchoring activities to your team’s personal sense of purpose.
