Following in his father's footsteps, Marshall Wilkinson has been a part of the high stakes world of real estate construction and development in one of the toughest markets in the world his whole life.

He is known for his skills in sales, negotiation, and closing.

Marshall, who made a name for himself in construction and development in New York City, has completed more than $2 billion worth of contracts with Hazen and Sawyer. He took his company to a 9-figure valuation. He is currently the vice president of Nautilus Consulting and chief operating officer of Eldor Contracting and Eldor Electric.

He wears many hats: contractor, investor, real estate developer, construction consultant, crypto enthusiast, as well as sales and negotiation coach.

Marshall is also the co-host of Risk On, a daily live show about investing and the markets. Listeners can tune in daily at 4:05 p.m. EST on the Cheddar Network, YouTube, or iHeartRadio.

This Harvard University graduate has been featured on Yahoo! Finance and Business Insider, among others.

Marshall's success may be prolific, but his advice to people who want to succeed in business is quite simple. There are two things a sales professional should not do: disrespect other people and lie.

"When you disrespect a guy and he catches you lying to him, it's over for you," Marshall said when he dropped by the RUNGPG Podcast recently to share his expertise in the art of closing deals and so much more.

His success in business--various fields of business at that--never involved disrespecting people and lying. Instead, it's about figuring out the best path to a successful negotiation.

"I've codified it. I've broken down the process, sequence of operations in an effort to replicate negotiations so I can have the success that is required in our business. I forced myself to figure out what is the best path, sequence of strategies to tie together in order to have successful negotiations," Marshall also said.

"If I do one good deal, it's not enough. Every deal I do has got to be good."
