On a personal front, I had a rough week with a family health emergency at home and didn't really have the space to do anything else. I still had my full-time job and I was trying my best to complete my tasks while processing and attending to the situation. I wasn't in any position to attend any of our group calls either. After a week now, things seem to be looking up! My family member is feeling much better and things seem to be slowly getting back to normal. I'm so relieved about it and also so happy to have the time and mental energy to get back on track. Can't wait to get back to doing more mocks this week :)

Here’s my calendly if you’re interested. https://calendly.com/laurieabs

Less than 1 month in Maddie's program and managed to land a high ticket offer!! I wouldn't have been in this position if I hadn't joined this program and met the people I've met in this program!! Shoutout to @Matt Menton for the continuous guidance and patience he has on our coaching call. I think I blow up his notification with questions and call reviews every day🫣!! And @Madison DeCoste @Dylan Asena for all the valuable advice you guys have thrown my way!! And most importantly, everyone that helped me along the way, running mocks with me, helping me prep for interviews, etc. Being surrounded by an atmosphere of people with so much drive and discipline is such a game changer!!! Let's keep crushing it!!

Building a sales skill is challenging if you aren't plugging into the environment, every day. Since joining the community, I haven't been able to be present in the live calls. I saw myself slipping as I struggled to make to make time. Since I've quit management and started my new position, I'm FINALLY able to at least be present for some of the calls! Ya'll - you have no idea how happy this has been making me! Challenges and obstacles will come your way on this journey. Give yourself grace, and then stand right back up! What struggles have you overcome, lately?

Covered the fundamentals and also how to succeed + how to fail. For example being lazy, not taking action, not having any goals, and not wanting to improve my skill will guarantee staying stagnant with no progress. On a call, It's important to: - Set a frame right from the start and not let the lead walk all over on me - Have a mindset that I'm there to help not just collect money - Speak less, listen more - Build some rapport in the beginning (small talk - not too much though) I also learned what the most common objections are + if objections come, It usually means I screwed up earlier in the sales process, most likely in the discovery/qualification part - because I didn't find their pain points. Overall, this was an awesome section, covered all the important and basic things to know about sales and setting! :D
