From Hustle to Leadership: The Evolution of a Difference Maker

Cold Calling Isn’t Dead—And Neither Is Grit

Listen in as we dive in for an epic episode down with Danny Eller, a true Difference Maker, who has played a pivotal role in driving massive growth at Populist Cleaning Co. With a relentless work ethic and a deep commitment to his craft, Danny has helped elevate the company’s sales strategy, expand its reach, and solidify its reputation in the industry.

From knocking on doors at eight years old to navigating high-stakes B2B sales today, Danny shares the raw truth about what separates top performers from the rest—grit, consistency, and the courage to put yourself out there.

This conversation dives deep into the power of cold calling in today’s world—why it works, why most people fear it, and how mastering the skill can open doors (literally and figuratively). Danny and Jason unpack the mindset shifts that turn rejection into opportunity, how to refine your approach, and why slowing down and listening is the real game-changer in business and life.

Beyond sales, Danny gets personal about fatherhood, leadership, and the lessons that shape us. He opens up about the challenges of balancing work and family, the struggles of raising children with unique needs, and how faith and perseverance fuel his journey.

Through it all, Danny has proven that the right approach to sales isn’t about luck—it’s about resilience, relationships, and playing the long game. His efforts have been instrumental in Populist Cleaning Co.’s continued success, proving that sales isn’t just about transactions—it’s about trust.

If you’ve ever questioned whether cold calling is dead—or whether you have what it takes to push through adversity—this episode will hit home. Tune in for a raw, real, and energizing conversation that reminds us: the hardest work reaps the biggest rewards.
