Are you an introvert struggling to find your place in the sales field? Did you know that by employing systems and processes perfect for you, you can be the best salesperson? That’s right, you don’t have to be like everyone else or even like to be in everyone’s presence, but having the right strategies made only for you by you, you will become great in sales.

In this episode of the Your Career Cure Podcast, Gail Tolstoi-Miller speaks with Matthew Pollard. He’s a bestselling author, rapid growth business authority, CSP designated speaker, award-winning blogger, and a podcaster. He was named Top 50 Keynote Speaker for 2020 by Top Sales World Magazine.

Forbes calls him “the real deal,” but he’s better known as “The Rapid Growth Guy.” By the age of 30, he’d been responsible for five multi-million-dollar business success stories. And fast-forward just a few years, and he’s worked with companies such as Electrolux, Oracle, and Microsoft, providing training, keynotes, and workshops from Thailand to Las Vegas.

He’s also been able to transform thousands of struggling or plateaued small businesses into momentum and growth. His bestselling book, The Introvert’s Edge, has been endorsed by Harvard, Princeton, Neil Patel, and more than 50 other global leaders.

He shares how he created systems and processes to enable him to achieve massive sales success as an introvert. Listen in to learn the importance of researching and connecting with prospects before meeting with them as an introvert to ensure you have an upper hand and possible success.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
