Sales Mogul: I think we’ve had enough

October 12, 2024

Hello, Buddy!

Something interesting happened recently.

This lady’s car went up in flames, like totally burned, but a Stanley cup inside the car somehow survived without a scratch— and there was ice in it too!

She filmed it, showed everyone on social media, and guess what? The CEO of Stanley is getting her a new car!

Now, the company’s flooded with over a thousand orders in just a few days.

Insane marketing strategy or not?

See for yourself

  1. I think we’ve had enough

  3. Turns out Snoop Dog’s announcement was an ad strategy

THE BIG IDEA

We’ve Had Enough With Fake Reviews

Ever found something you really wanted to buy but felt skeptical about getting scammed or ending up in a “what I ordered vs what I got” scenario?

So, you check the customer reviews, and they’re all super positive, filled with “I love what I got” and multiple heart emojis. So of course you pay, only to realize….

Fake reviews can be quite a disappointment. It’s frustrating when you’re eyeing something online, and the reviews seem like a bunch of love letters—then you get something totally different!

Even big names like Amazon aren’t left out.

In fact, a world report revealed that fake reviews influenced about $152 billion in spending globally! 😱

Of course, people use fake reviews to boost sales and rankings, and some sales folks think they are totally harmless.

Buuut it’s really not cool and has major consequences. Plus, it damages trust with your customers, and in the long run, it’s bad for business!

Or, what’s your take on this? Have you ever used fake reviews to make a sale?

Tell me, I can keep a secret 🤲🏾

STORY OF THE WEEK

Maybe, Don’t Talk Too Much

We all love to talk but sometimes we forget prospect meetings should be a conversation, not a presentation!

I was in a first sales meeting recently and the salesperson started by giving a presentation of who they are and what their company does.

Doesn’t sound too bad, right?

Well, fast forward 20 minutes — and the seller was still talking. When the rep finally took a breather, everyone in the room was tuned out and visibly distracted. The rep didn’t stop once to ask a question or make sure everyone was still following.
