What does my sales process look like? Do you need more leads? Stop asking the dumb questions.
Wouldn't it be better if you opened with, "Hey Steve, I've spoken to a hundred people just like you in your same position, and some of the challenges I've heard people are this, this and this. Do any of these resonate with you?" take it further, "These are some of the solutions people have come to in order to try to solve some of those challenges."
Suddenly you are someone of interest to that prospect. This is only a taste of what is covered in this episode. Tune in to hear all the ideas and solutions.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills

Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t.
