Today, Kevin Bees interviews Business Mentor Kevin Paetz

Kevin Paetz is the former president and COO of a multinational financial services company. Kevin left it all behind in 2008 to pursue his own business and built a successful business consulting practice.  His Black Diamond Finance Corporation exists to “monetize genius”. Kevin has clients on three continents and is the owner of 5 companies.

Kevin lives and works on and around the planet so that one day he can be off-planet.

Kevin is an international speaker and has shared the stage with people like Kevin Harrington of Shark Tank & Motivational Speaker Les Brown.

Kevin Paetz shared a wealth of wisdom and insights - including:

• Lessons he has learned from turning around 100’s of companies
• The positive impact the small business has on the community when they succeed and grow.
• A powerful life-changing question: ‘Is It True?’  In many situations when we examine our beliefs and break down our assumptions, we discover that our assumptions are not always true.  In identifying this, we free ourselves to explore other, more positive possibilities.
• The power of shifting perspective.
• The habitual Sunday night questions that make all the difference:

 + What went well this week?
 + What am I grateful for?

 + Did I make a difference?

 + What would help me win the week ahead?

Today, Kevin Bees interviews Sales Master - Neal Tricarico.

Neal is the founder and owner of Ultimate Growth Inc

Neal has 23 years of sales leadership and began his Sales leadership career with Deepak Chopra and went on to be on the founding team that built Tony Robbins Business Mastery. As Tony’s Executive Sales Leader, Neal implemented his Selling with Intention Methodology at Tony Robbins, leading his 4 Sales Divisions to

record-breaking results.  His work focuses on increasing sales, profits, and market share through utilizing the most ethical, efficient, and effective influence, selling, and

client relationship skills.  Neal worked with The Scalable Company/Digital Marketer as its Executive Sales Leader in December 2020 where he grew sales team revenue 371%

in his first year…

Neal founded Ultimate Growth to help impact-driven companies double

their sales by teaching, building and installing proven, scalable systems

and processes.

In this highly impactful episode, Neal covers:

• How he overcame sales reluctance, and how you can do the same
• How to avoid manipulative sales techniques by becoming mission-driven.
• Why we should never ‘market’ and ‘sale’ but instead, seek to ‘educate’ and ‘serve’.
• The difference between sales management and sales leadership - and why you really need sales leaders vs sales managers
• The question that has changed his life and approach to sales, and been the source of massive growth in revenue for the companies he works with: “Is it possible to enroll others without being sales-y?”
• Why words matter… and why we want to ‘enroll’ rather than ‘sell’.
• Neal’s RAP model to help you maximize the lifetime value of your clients.
• His unique habits and rituals that allow him to serve his clients with maximum energy, every day, without losing any sense of passion

Neal also has very generously gifted a powerful case study - demonstrating how you apply this to your business today.  Get it here:  https://www.levelupsalesteam.com/
