What if scaling your business wasn’t about chasing the next “big idea” but about applying math, discipline, and strategy to your sales process? In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary welcomes Doug C. Brown, CEO of CEO Sales Strategies and a renowned expert who has built over 35 businesses and generated more than $900 million in sales.  Doug has served as President of Sales and Training for Tony Robbins and Chet Holmes, boosting close rates by 143% and driving a 4,150% increase in product sales. He now helps entrepreneurs and business leaders implement predictable, math-based systems to dramatically increase revenue and profits.  The conversation delves into why identifying your ideal buyer matters more than closing skills, how overlooked follow-up can lead to millions in lost revenue, and why anchoring your business in truthful numbers is non-negotiable. 5 Key Takeaways → Sales growth isn’t magic—it’s applying math to the right metrics. → The biggest mistake owners make is not identifying their ideal buyer. → Speed to follow-up can double conversion rates—sometimes within minutes. → Long-term success comes from relationship capital, not one-off transactions. → Anchoring goals to truthful numbers and measuring the right metrics prevents costly blind spots. Quote from Doug “Sales isn’t math, but sales revenue growth is how you apply math to the right metrics.” Ready to strengthen your sales strategy and grow your wealth?
