Next Level University

In this episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros sit down and talk with International Business Speaker and Author Phil M Jones about business, sales, and what it is precisely about. Phil shares his nuggets of wisdom for people already in sales and those who’re looking to dabble in it. Tune in and take notes as he also gives out his advice on becoming the best salesperson you can be and succeed in the field.

Phil M Jones thinks and acts differently. His precise insights around communication added to a proven personal pedigree of peak performance and a richness of real-world experience mean that Phil is the kind of thought-leader whose counsel is sought by other thought-leaders.

He believes with a passion that the answer to increased success, in every area of life, is to ask better questions, focus on QUALITY of conversation as well as quantity, and that quite often, the difference between you, and all the others, is knowing exactly what to say, when to say it, and how to make more of your conversations count.

“If you know what you want but don’t know what you want to do, realize that you can’t get what you want without shifting what you do.” - Alan Lazaros

In setting and achieving goals, some are just “eyes-on-the-prize” type of people, some make pit-stops along the way to their finish lines, and some just seem a little too off their tracks. In this episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about changing your mind about the future you set out for yourself. They also discuss the importance of clarity and finding your whys to figure out what you want to do. Setting a different goal from what you started with is okay; what matters is you know what to do to achieve it.

In this week’s Motivation Monday hosts, Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about the importance of following through, especially when it’s hard. We all have days when we plan what we want or need to do a day or two ahead. We get pumped up thinking that we actually organized our life. But when that day comes, we’re unable to proceed as planned. Whether it’s something you planned to do for someone or yourself, even more so if it’s for yourself, it’s a must to follow through. Keep in mind; it’s not always about doing something because you want to; it’s about doing what MUST be done. Who knows, it might become something you’ll thank yourself for doing down the line.

“The antidote to impulsiveness is forethought.” - Nir Eyal.

With all the technological advancement that surrounds us today, it is nearly impossible not to get distracted. And while these technologies make working from home possible, we quickly get distracted because of them. The news, games, and even the means to connect with people are all in the palm of your hands. In this episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros are joined by best-selling author Nir Eyal. They talk about what distraction is, why people get easily distracted, and how to control and avoid it. Nir is such a wealth of information so make sure you stay tuned.

Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business. Nir previously taught as a Lecturer in Marketing at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford. Nir co-founded and sold two tech companies since 2003 and was dubbed by The M.I.T. Technology Review as, “The Prophet of Habit-Forming Technology.” Bloomberg Businessweek wrote, “Nir Eyal is the habits guy. Want to understand how to get app users to come back again and again? Then Eyal is your man.” He is the author of two bestselling books, Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products and Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life.

In today’s episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about why they were able to get multiple referrals from just one client. This is again driving the point of consistency which they’ve been talking about for the past few episodes. If you promise and consistently over-deliver, it will change the trajectory of your business. Let this also remind you that you should also overdeliver on yourself, so make the right personal and professional investments.
