  • How to Get Ready for a New Year
    How to Get Ready for a New Year

    This episode of the 60 Second Sales Show is all about how to get for a New Year.

    If you want to make sure you are on track to make the upcoming year your best, this is the show for you.

    Listen now and follow along with the transcript below.
    How to Get Ready for a New Year
    Dave Lorenzo:

    Hey everyone, welcome to another edition of the 60 Second Sales Show. I'm your host, Dave Lorenzo. With us as always we have Nancy Pop. Hey Nancy, how are you?

    Nancy Pop:      I'm good, how are you doing?

    Dave Lorenzo: I'm doing great. Are you ready for 2017? Are you ready to go?

    Nancy Pop:      I am so pumped and ready.

    Dave Lorenzo:

    Ah! Well, as we record this, there are just 20 days left, a little bit more maybe 21 days left in 2016. You're listening to this now we've got two weeks left. You probably got less than five or six work days left to get ready for 2017. We're going to help you do that today. I will tell you that I am the perfect guys to cover this topic and here's why.

    Earlier this year, we had the threat of a hurricane where I live in Miami. All my relatives came over my house. In fact, my wife's family came over so we had 12 people, I think actually 13 people, and two dogs in my house for two days because this thing took forever to get anywhere close to us. Thankfully, it was a near miss because the storm had a 140 mile an hour winds. It was a little over 92, 93 miles off of the coast of Florida. One twist or turn and we could have had a category, I think it was four, storm hit us which would have been huge. It would have been catastrophic.

    I tell you this because my home was the place to be. We were all shuttered, we were boarded up, we were completely prepared, and when my wife's uncle said to me, "Man! How long did it take you to get ready for this?" I said to him, "Ten years." The reason I said 10 years is because I've lived in Florida for 10 years and every year, I go through on June 1, which is the beginning of hurricane season, I go through and I check all my hurricane supplies. I check the batteries. In fact, I replace the batteries in, we have six lanterns we use. Every bedroom has its own light when there's no power. We have ways to, not only cook, but we had bottled water enough for two weeks for 13 people, so I had a huge amount of bottled water on hand. I'm just a very prepared person.

    In fact, today, one of the things I did when I first purchased my car is we, here at my house, we have a fleet of cars. The two cars that my family uses and oftentimes, we will have the two cars that my sister-in-law and her oldest daughter use and my mother-in-law's car and I'd take care of the maintenance on all of them, and one of the things I realized was that I hadn't checked the jack and the tire changing equipment in my car or my wife's car in the last two years. I haven't checked in since we bought the car.

    I went out and I did that. I actually put everything together, I pulled the wheel on each car just to make sure I knew how to do it because I don't want to have to learn how to do something in a pinch. I don't want to have to learn to do it in an emergency. That's how prepared I am. In our cars, we have fire extinguishers. In my home, on each floor, I have a fire extinguisher. In my garage, I have a fire extinguisher. I am prepared.

    You as a business owner or a business leader, or a sales professional, need to be prepared at all times as well. When you walk in front of a client and a client asks you a question, that's the not the first time you've ever heard that question. I went out of my driveway, jacked up my cars, put together all the ... one of the cars in particular you got to crank down the spare tire. It's under, it's a big SUV, it's under the car.

  • How To Sell In A Regulated Environment
    How to Sell In a Regulated Environment

    Do you sell a product or service under strict scrutiny by the government?

    Are you looking to make progress in the healthcare, medical or dental industry?

    Isn't it frustrating working with a long sales cycle?

    Selling in a regulated environment is a challenge but it doesn't have to be.

    On this episode of the 60 Second Sales Show we speak with Leila Chang the CEO of Florida Dental Benefits.  Leila helps us cut through the red tape and close the deal in a highly regulated industry.

    Dave Lorenzo:                       Hi there, Workplace Warriors. I'm Dave Lorenzo. You've only got 60 seconds to make a first impression and I've got half that time to convince you to come with me to the place to be. It's the place you know that will make your wallet grow. It is the 60 Second Sale Show. Welcome, everyone, to the 60 Second Sale Show. I'm your host, Dave Lorenzo, and today we've got something really special for you. Today, we have an inside look at how to sell in a regulated industry. I know many of you out there are concerned because we've been helping you develop relationships. We've been helping you build and grow your book of business, and you're focused on developing relationships, but you tell me, I hear all the time, I get emails, I get phone calls, I get text messages, I get shout-outs on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, "Dave, look. This is all great and I have great relationships with my buyers but I'm in a regulated industry. I have no choice. I have to answer an RFP. What do I do?"

    I heard you and we're answering that today. I have the best expert on the planet or at least the best expert I could find to answer this for you, my good friend Leila Chang. She's the CEO of Florida Dental Benefits. She's out there right now, her staff ... She's out there pounding the pavement. Her staff, her sales team, they're out there pounding the pavement every day looking to help the toothless population of Florida and she's going to teach us how to sell in a regulated industry. At least, she's going to give us some insight. She's going to give us a window into how you can break through if you have to follow an RFP process or if you're in a competitive industry or if you're in an industry that is ridiculously overregulated, this is the show for you. Now, I don't want you to tune out if you're not in a regulated industry because we've got all sorts of great stuff for you today. We're going to talk about the experience you provide to your clients. We're going to talk about that right now, but before I get into that, I'd be remiss if I didn't welcome in my partner in crime, the person who makes all this happen, the wonderful, the talented producer of this show, Nancy Pop. Hello Nancy, how are you today?

    Nancy Pop:                          Hello, Dave. I am just not getting out of bed from Thanksgiving. How about you?

    Dave Lorenzo:                       You know, it's funny. I'm sure there are a lot of people out there who are ... They're gonna listen to this show probably seven days from now or even into the future, and they're gonna be like, "Thanksgiving? What are you talking about? It's sunny, I'm at the beach, I'm listening to this podcast," and that's fine, but as we're recording this show today, it's one week from Thanksgiving, seven full days. It'll be seven full days tomorrow. I didn't really have the tryptophan coma this year. I did fry the turkey. If you listen to last week's show, we had my friend, Enrique Fernandez on the show last week and in addition to being an expert on developing systems, he also gave us some thoughts on how to fry a turkey. His insight was really, really good. I used a couple of his tips when I fried my own turkey on Thanksgiving. I think it came out pretty well. I'm gonna do another one next week. We have another group of people.
