What Do You Do for a Living? Timeless Sales Strategies from The Closers Pt 2 with Denise Griffitts and Ben Gay III

Today, Ben and I are opening The Closers Pt 2 to page 157 and diving into the chapter titled “What Do You Do for a Living?”

Now, this isn’t just about job titles or polished pitches—it’s about getting crystal clear on the real value you bring to the table.

We’re drawing on wisdom from some of the greats: Elmer Wheeler, who famously said, “Find a need and fill it.” Zig Ziglar, who reminded us that “You can have everything in life you want if you’ll just help enough other people get what they want.” And Fred Herman, who nailed it with “People don’t buy drills—they buy holes.”

See a pattern? 

Great salespeople don’t push products—they solve problems. And whether you’re just getting started in sales or you’ve been at it for decades, this conversation will help you rethink how you present your value—so it resonates, builds trust, and drives results.

So if you’ve ever struggled to answer that simple question—“What do you do?”—this episode is for you.
