Building a Dope Sales Team (Without Spending A Dime)
What's up, everyone! This is Ryan C. Greene and welcome back to another inspiring episode of Ryan C. Greene's BORN TO BE DOPE podcast. Today’s episode is all about flipping preconceived notions on their heads and finding unconventional paths to success. Our guest, Che Brown, shared some incredible insights on how to build a dope sales team without spending a dime. Let’s dive into some key takeaways that can transform your entrepreneurial journey and set you on the path to dopeness!
Embrace Sales, Even if You Hate It
Che Brown openly shared how he went from despising sales to realizing their indispensable value. For many, salespeople come off as "slimy, slicky, fast-talking" types, but Che discovered that sales are fundamentally about solving problems and bringing in revenue. Understanding this key distinction can change your outlook and open up new pathways to success. Through sales, you not only solve market problems but also ensure money keeps coming in the door, making it a crucial element for any business.
Digital Sales Team: A Game Changer
There are two types of individuals who can really benefit from building a digital sales team:
1. Those who are still growing and need sales infrastructure to bring in qualified leads.
2. Those who are successful and ready to scale but need a team to automate and reach more people for greater impact.
If you're serious about scaling your business and impacting humanity through automation, then building a digital sales team is non-negotiable.
Everyone is in Sales
One of the most eye-opening moments of the episode was Che’s assertion that everyone, in some way, is in sales. Whether you’re a preacher, teacher, or even a parent, you’re always selling your ideas, values, and identity. Once you realize this, you can harness those skills intentionally to drive success in your entrepreneurial ventures.
Collaboration Over Competition
You know what I'm all about—impact and collaboration. Che Brown highlighted the significance of working together rather than competing. He believes in giving 70% in collaborations and expecting only 30% back, focusing on the bigger picture of impacting humanity. If you're not collaborating, you’re missing out on mutual growth opportunities that can propel your success.
The Power of the Mamba Mentality
Inspired by Kobe Bryant's unparalleled work ethic and belief in himself, Che talked about the "Mamba Mentality." This mindset teaches us that there is always "next," and you are never truly finished. Kobe’s story wasn't just about high-scoring games; it was about consistent, disciplined work. Adopting this mentality can drive you to push past limits and achieve greatness.
Five Components of a Seven-Figure Sales Team
Although we only briefly touched on them, Che mentioned the five components of a seven-figure sales team: sales rep, sales affiliate, sales ambassador, sales partner, and sales manager. Each role plays a critical part in a successful sales team, and we’ll dive deeper into these in future episodes. Stay tuned for more on this revolutionary system!
