Most of this video you are describing a large part of what mindfulness mediation entails. Detachment from outcome, starting again and again, focusing on this moment and letting in joy. Super cool to see those parallels
53k cold calls is a lot and it just shows the amount of work and dedication you've put in the past few years. Agree with lesson 1 too because we can't dictate how the world will treat us, it's just up to us how we'll adapt and adjust. Great video, Trent!
I'm trying to get into software sales...been a hands on guy for a while and iv been watching you to get my foot in the door. I hope to change my life with your videos
@@N8TheGreat1028 Stop thinking and just do the work. That's the only advice that matters. Throw yourself into the eye of the storm and show up everyday. Don't quit
After applying to jobs try to figure out who are the recruiters and hiring managers hiring for the job then reach out to them and tell them ur interested in chatting about the job. Its how I got 7 interviews and 2 job offers in SaaS sales with no sales experience.
bro!!!! the advice and the points in this video is literally the highest level of advice!!! like life, sales, mindset all in one. it is elite. thank you.
Look at what you did Trent! One year ago, you didn't felt like it, still went ahead and your thoughts, what you said in the video is like a small pebble you threw into the worldwide pond of sales people and it still has that ripple effect. I am starting a new career in SaaS sales and you gave me huge motivation. Thank you for that! Actually I had seen your other videos, but never clicked on them, but this one made me subscribe and follow you. Well done!!!!
1. Be a hunter. (go to the wild hunt prey and feed my family) 2. The less you think the better hunter you become. 3. Pick the weapon up and focus and shoot. (Press and Dial) 4. Time is important, 24hrs a day, 12hrs day, 12hrs night. Hunt prey at the right time or else you'll become prey to be hunted. Value the time you have, right now. 5. Have fun. You don't have to hunt big deer everyday, sometimes just a small rabbit for dinner. My words are used as a hunter's mindset, not mean it.
I start my BDR position next Wednesday after leaving my job of 7 years. You're videos have been very informative and inspiring. I'm nervous but determined to succeed!
Dialing when you don't feel like it or when you feel self-conscious is hard, but TFW you book that meeting regardless makes it all worth it! I didn't feel like dialing much at all this week and WFH all week because my depression has been particularly rough, but I still hit the phones and booked my meetings as usual - and the dopamine from success at work took away a lot of the "edge" of my depression. Thanks sharing these nuggets of knowledge 💕🤗.
Channel your energy from inward focused to outward focused. Rather than thinking about what you don’t have, consider what can you offer to others. It will sustain your motivation
Thank you for the content Trent. I’ve just started my role as an SDR and it’s been a little bit of a struggle to start my sales career. Everything you said here was completely relatable and you’re completely right. Time to hunt
Your view of loving the process tells me that you’ve either read “Atomic Habits” and have taken it to heart, or you should really read it if only to solidify your view on “the process”. Great video, love the content. I know your no longer in tech sales but keep up the great work! Good luck on your next business venture.
Can I add something here? One of the things I learned from cold calling is to always check the lead's information first before initiating the call. Especially if the lead generation happened a long time ago or bought list to expedite lead gen. In most cases, the person and phone number no longer match. It's best to use a reverse phone number lookup first to ensure you're calling the right person. It will allow you to verify their contact and find the correct contact info in case it happened to be incorrect.
Good Morning from Portugal 🌞🇵🇹 I really liked this video and it was very helpful. I would like to highlight the fact that this was the 1st video that I watched from you and your attitude is amazing. You owned a new follower. Have a great 2023🙌! I will be aware 👀 Thank you for sharing your knowledge and soft skills 🧠
Jabra is the best in the industry for headsets and call performance lol love it man. I've done nearly the same amount of calls in real estate and there's no game to win you if don't play. I love videos like this.
Point 2 and Point 5 is the most accurate for Telemarketers. i am currently a Telemarketer for a resort, and since we are selling holiday packages, people are tend to be more open with us than say a Telemarketer who sells more rigid products, since people tends to be more open to fun packages such as holiday and resort packages. But again, it doesn't mean we arent having a hard time, we also got rejected quite a few, but i agree, less thinking and just have fun is the key to just be a good Telemarketer
Great video started a sales role 6 months ago getting by with emails alone but my manager has been on my ass about picking up my call game I understand why for sure.
Damn I just found your channel to and really love it. Especially this type of video's and live cold calling videos. Cold calling really feels intimidating to me but your videos put in into perspective. 53k cold calls Holy smokes
Thanks so much for your videos, Trent. I learn a lot from them. 2 questions: 1 - Do you always email prospects before calling them? 2 - English isn't my first language and when I call companies most of the time I can't understand the person's name. What would you recommend in those cases? Thanks brother.
Hey Trent. I like your videos and have watched quite a few of them. I have 10 years of experience in sports and entertainment sales (live event tickets) but at a very high level and prestige enterprise accounts along with an MBA. I am still having trouble with any tech companies give me a serious look minus a couple of BDR entry level positions. Any advice on pivoting given my experience and educational pedigree without having to start completely over in a role for 0-1 year exp?
hey trent I am a first year university student and I am wondering if I can go directly from being a software engineer -> sales engineer -> account executive instead of going the SDR route? I am thinking of majoring in computer science so I can go with this route instead and skip the SDR part... would you recommend this as a better pathway or should I go straight into a pure sales roles when I graduate and not bother getting the comp sci degree anymore? Honestly starting to realise I may be more fit for sales than software engineering haha
Not only do I personally feel more connected to the prospect when hand dialing but I feel my connection rates are higher than when I’m using a dialer, a dialer can also get messy sometimes. Cool to know I can relate with a like minded individual! Keep at it 💯
I can manufacture edible oil at really very cheap price here in india. And can export it as well to ur country. Is their any way I can be successful in this FMCG Business in your country?? Plz tell!!

It's honestly sad to see how hypnotized you've been by the corporate system. Having a number of sales calls done for someone shouldn't be the "fun fact" you present about yourself. You obviously have the skillset needed to create your own business and be very successful, but you need to break out of the chains of fear that corporate had placed upon you. Being successful on your own isn't as hard as corporate makes it seem to be, especially for someone with your skillset. Go out there and do your own thing, break out of the chains of corporate.
Good video. I just did not like that ”you are most beautiful people” it feels like there is then people who are not so beautiful. People look different to people. I can think somebody is good looking, and other person thinks bad looking.
How do you get paid in tech sales, is there base salary and then commission added? I’m 17 i’m working in Wall street as a sales rep for a Finance company but i really like tech sales

Lesson 2: the less you the think the better. Been using this lesson, works every time.
It’s important to going in more confident
But it’s important to do your research and think about you to convince them booking an appointment no?
@@mirza7532 no. it’s hard enough to get people to even answer. Most don’t. Hit the dialers. “Research” is the procrastinators battle cry

The hardest thing about cold calls is clicking dial, and doing it when you don’t feel like it.
Boooyahhhhjhhhh $$$$
That’s what it’s all about

Do you do much research before you call Trent? Feel like research can sometimes psych me out haha
it def does, which is why I don't do the research
Why don’t you or didn’t you use a dialer? I don’t use one as well, I was just curious as to why? Do you use one now?
