Episode 23: John Martinez: Everyone can learn Sales

Click Here To Listen/Download

If you have the willingness and drive to learn... you can learn how to SELL! Especially if your coach is John Martinez. John has personally renovated, revamped and revitalized the sales of over 250 companies. His Training Platform: REI Sales Academy, holds master classes 4 times per year. So if you've struggled to buy as many houses as you'd like, at the prices you need them at, I invite you to apply to his program at: https://midwestrev.com/sales-training/ John posted this last week: "I think the only reason I've been able to find success in sales is because I always felt like a failure. I never felt good enough. From being extremely embarrassed about my speech impediment (that I had through the 5th grade), to sucking at baseball, football, track AND basketball in high school, and my failure to stick with any one job for more than 6 months until I was in my mid-20s... ...I never felt "good enough". It led to heavy drug use at 15 years old... and I mean heavy... 7 days per week, at school, home and work... pushing my body to its limits. It led to a depression that followed me until I was about 30. That horrible feeling of being nothing special drove me to hop on a plane, at 17, literally the day after graduation, to join the Marines in San Diego, against the wishes of my father who served in the Marine Corps through Vietnam, and is haunted to this day from the experience. That deep desire to to become something led to 5 years in the gym....pushing myself to grow from a 135 pound weakling to a lean and mean 200 pounds. That chase, that need, that yearning to be admired, respected, and taken seriously pushed me to study hard, work harder than anyone I've ever known, and eventually become a master at sales... over a period of 20 years. Today, I still feel like I have a lot of room to grow. So I still constantly try to hone my sales skills by selling with the teams I train all over the country... by reading, watching and consuming everything I can about how people make decisions... from the perspectives of biology, psychology, behavioral economics and the other social sciences, neuroscience and neuro-economics and systems thinking.

And, I've found something to be proud of. I can undoubtedly say, with 100% confidence and certainty, that I can teach anybody with a will to learn, the ability to sell effectively with ease. I can confidently confess that there is no one else on the planet better equipped to train real estate investors and acquisition agents how to buy houses, direct-from-seller, at deep discounts. That's not something I say without proof or a solid track record to back it up. That's not something I share without a sense of humility and gratefulness." John Martinez can help you take you, your sales team and your business to the next level. Book you must read: Spin Selling, by Neil Rackham Words of Wisdom (and another book you should read): Screw it, Just Do it, by Richard Branson Where to find John: https://midwestrev.com Thank you to John for his service and exceptional sale training. Thank you to you for listening!

Beka Shea: Engineering Success in Real Estate

Click Here To Listen/Download

Beka is a wonder woman power house of intelligence and drive. She is SOOO Awesome that we scrapped our original Intro! Beka is going to introduce herself: I'm the youngest of 4 daughters and I grew up in rural Pennsylvania. Being the favorite child has given me an overabundance of confidence, which I use to my advantage quite often. (My sisters will kill me for saying that, but only because it's true. :)). I've always been an exuberantly tenacious person, setting stretch goals and moving on to the next one. Looking back at my life I find certain experiences really stand out, so let's walk down that memory lane. I spent my junior year of high school as a congressional Page, working and living in DC running errands for Congress. It was a truly amazing experience and I'm sad the program doesn't exist anymore. (But the fiscally conservative side of me totally gets it.) I went to WPI for mechanical engineering on an ROTC scholarship, where I met my husband and some of my amazing best friends. When I graduated I became a US Naval Officer. My dream was to be a pilot, but unfortunately my eyes disagreed; instead I served on an Aircraft Carrier. It was a great consolation prize, and even though it was incredibly tough at times, I will treasure it. After about 4 years in the Navy, I got a job as an engineer working in the energy arena, helping to build a power plant to support aircraft carriers stationed in Japan. (There's a theme here.) I felt way out of my league and also incredibly excited to be a part of something so massively cool. I worked with that company for 7 years, and again was fortunate to be around some seriously amazing people. When my 3rd daughter was born, I decided to spend less time traveling and more time at home. We bought our first rehab, which was a hoarder house that we essentially gutted, and I was hooked. Making ugly things pretty is my favorite. The first year I flipped 3 houses, the second year I flipped 6, and then I moved up to one a month and started building out a team to support that. This year we're on track to do 20+ flips and a few wholesales, as well as venturing into the rental arena. Words of wisdom: "One foot in front of the other. You can achieve success that way. Incremental Success." "No new Thoughts!!!" "Do the basics well." Where to find Beka: [email protected] and look her up on Facebook! Thank You!
