If you think sales is about slick pitches and perfect scripts, think again.

I've met a lot of sales professionals in my career, but few bring the heart, humility, and wisdom that Drew Norton does. In this episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast, Drew joins me to talk about what it really means to lead with authenticity and sell with purpose. He's passionate about helping people realize that sales isn't just a job. It's a mindset.

Drew Norton, known as The Everyday Sales Leader, is a dynamic self-development coach, sales consultant, and co-host of The Everyday Leader Podcast. With a background spanning sales, hiring, recruiting, leadership, and training across diverse industries, he's a seasoned expert in cultivating individual and organizational success. His career journey encompasses a proven track record in sales, and he's passionate about translating his wealth of knowledge into actionable insights, empowering others to achieve their career aspirations in sales and leadership.

Drew is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served a mission in the Utah Ogden Mission. Originally from southeastern Arizona, Drew cherishes the values of small-town life. He and his wife have been married for nearly 13 years and are blessed with four children. A sports enthusiast, he cheers on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Utah Jazz, and Denver Broncos. His love for the outdoors extends to hunting and side-by-side riding. A private pilot, Drew also enjoys the freedom of flight.

From the outside, Drew looks like a high-performing sales professional (and he is), but what makes him special is how deeply he connects the dots between selling, serving, and living with purpose. He's led multimillion-dollar sales teams, trained professionals across industries, and now helps business owners, entrepreneurs, and leaders discover how sales can transform every part of their lives, from how they lead at work to how they communicate at home.

Going deeper, he shares the story of a near-death experience with his six-month-old son, and how that terrifying moment taught him lessons that go far beyond business.

If you've ever said, "I'm not in sales," this episode is your wake-up call. Because the truth is… we're all in sales. Why? Watch till the end!
