Everybody knows the world of sales can be tough, and it’s easy to get discouraged when the rejections start piling up, and your customers stop picking up the phone. The wrong thought patterns can start to set in, and pretty soon you aren’t making your quota and are looking through job listings on your lunch break, waiting for the axe to fall. Mark Hunter’s own start in sales was inauspicious, to say the least. He was fired from his first two stints before he began to learn the lessons that he covers in A Mind for Sales. He discovered that sales can be incredibly rewarding, such as when your customers call you for advice, thanking you for improving their business, and letting you know they just referred you to colleagues. The difference is simply developing mindset and momentum habits. The good news is that you can learn how to grow a mind for sales like Hunter’s: "Today, sales is my life. It has gone way past being a job. I do not even see sales as a profession anymore; it is a lifestyle, and one I am proud to be living. I cannot imagine doing anything else."

He’s the author of 13 books on sales and motivation and recently launched the Sales Velocity academy, a learning platform with 500+ videos.

The Pete Primeau Show welcomes one of the best marketers on the planet - Owner of Trent Bedding: Trent Ranburger.

Residents of south-Central Kentucky know—and adore—Trent Ranburger through his sleep shop’s hilarious commercials, customer service and commitment to area charities. For more than a decade, they’ve watched founder and owner Trent Ranburger don costumes and take on alter egos to tout his eponymous bedding shop. Whether they star Ranburger in character or as his own enthusiastic self, the commercials are goofy, funny and, most importantly, memorable. They have made Ranburger a local celebrity and Trent Bedding a success in a crowded market that now includes upwards of 40 retailers selling beds in Warren County, population about 120,000.

A few years ago, Ranburger introduced a new character to customers: his sidekick, Lil Trent. The custom-made puppet, ostensibly a new employee at the retailer, made his rap video debut with Trent and the rest is history!
