IN THIS MASTER CLASS VIDEO TRAINING, you will find A LOT of value!  It's PACKED with tactical methods to become a better leader and sales professional.  First up, it’s important to define what a leader is.  A leader, especially in a post-Covid world, is someone who has a clear vision and is able to rally her or his community to achieve that goal.   The greatest job of a leader, whether that leader is a parent, a CEO, or a counselor–is to find a way to build self esteem without crossing into delusion.    That means, in a business setting, it’s important to remember that you work for your employees, they don’t work for you. Your job is to build your team, provide value, and give them space to grow while holding them accountable.   With that out of the way, there are so many leaders and managers who want to be better. Sure, they want to accomplish their own desires but they want to accomplish them in a way that helps them sleep at night.    No one is trying to ru

One of my community members recently wrote to me and said that he was glad that there are people like me that are talking about this very issue. It ties in well with what’s wrong with a lot of people. And that’s lots of people are not in the here and now. They’re not present and can’t see what’s in front of them because of the distractions around them. Emotional intelligence helps you get grounded and focused on what’s going on right here right now because we have this one life to live. You talk a lot about the different social media channels especially linked in and how it’s so popular and how TickTock is so popular with the kids. Listening to why kids like the service is basically saying they love the stories because the stories are in the here and now. Many adults dismiss these kids but if you pay attention these kids are telling us what is coming and if my 13-year-old becomes 18 years old in five years I would’ve built myself an unbelievable business very well done ZARIR! --- Send in a voice message: h

No one is trying to run a dictatorship (I actually fled one, so I’m especially mindful of the feelings and needs of my employees) but so many leaders are confused. They don’t know how to build a business and meet their goals without be

Today I have the first ever tip for you on the new podcast format called daily zee, and I’ve already screwed it up because this is technically tip #1, but we’re going to call it tip #2 just so the numbering works out, but that’s just fine because today’s tip is about learning, and the best way to truly learn is to do things, and when you do things you’re going to screw up every now and then. That’s part of the learning process. So here’s your tip: You have to own your own development. Sales is a really unique environment in that, when you improve, the upside to your business is tremendous in perpetuity. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/zarirmerwanji/message

DAILY ZEE EP 001 Welcome to the Daily Zee Sales & Leadership Podcast. My name is Zarir Merwanji and I’ll be your host. In this short introductory episode I’d like to share with you how this show came about and what you can expect, at least based on the initial vision. As the host of the Coffee with zee and ZARIR merwanji audio experience Podcast where I only interview quota carrying individual contributors who are either #1 or at least in the top 1% of their sales organizations I go deep. The average interview on that show is typically between 75 and 90 minutes long. The feedback has been amazing, but it takes some pretty serious commitment to get through each of those episodes, and rarely is it possible to do that in a single session. I wanted to solve for that and make some of the nuggets of knowledge from that show, more accessible. Initially I thought a very short, daily show that features clips and quotes from those interviews would be just the thing, but quickly my vision started to gro

There will be times when “no” really means there’s no sale to be made. It’s just part of selling. As a sales champion, it’s important to recognize a true “non-selling” situation as early as possible during interactions with others. That’s so you don’t waste their time or yours attempting to move forward in the sales process. On those occasions when the “no” you hear is truly a final one, you still have a sale to make. This new sale is to win the opportunity to stay in touch with these folks. Their circumstances or needs may change in the future. Your goal, now that you’ve connected with them, is to stay top of mind if and when they need your particular product. Here's a copy of the script for you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/zarirmerwanji/message

There are massive opportunities on LinkedIn right now. It’s available for everyone but especially for those in B2B – here’s why I think it’s probably the most important marketing channel in 2019: LinkedIn started as a site for people looking to get a job or to fill a job. People used it for posting resumes, connecting with people they already knew, and finding jobs through people they knew. Then, things started to change. People started reaching out to make connections with people they didn’t know. It became a way to meet new people. Now, LinkedIn is a content platform. This huge shift from one-to-one interactions to content publishing is pretty new for the platform. And the organic reach is incredible right now. The best way to grow on LinkedIn by 1) engaging with people and 2) publishing more content. #askzarir #zarirmerwanji --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/zarirmerwanji/message

When you’re new to sales, it will take some effort to get your career rolling. I compare this to the amount of thrust that’s required to get an airplane off the ground. It takes a lot, but once you reach  a certain level, staying aloft gets easier. To make your career launch a little smoother, start by letting everyone you already know about your new position. They may or may not be qualified to own your product, but they are likely to know someone who is qualified. It never hurts to ask others to keep you in mind when the subject of whatever you’re selling comes up. Share with them the training you’ve taken and knowledge you’ve gained about your product so they’ll realize you’re working on becoming an expert on your product and industry. Here’s a sample introductory letter I’ve taught past students to use. It’s just as effective when delivered via email or verbally.

Parenting, Sales & Leadership Talk With Top Sales Professionals | Interview With The Dan Street Experience In the past year or so, as I’ve been exploring the topic of effective parenting in more detail, I’m noticing that my POVs on the topic are ideas I don’t see others talk about. The truth is, many people are parenting their kids from a place of insecurity, and treating their kids like “products” instead of actually doing what’s best for them. But before I get into it, I want to clarify that I don’t want to tell other people how to raise their children. I don’t have the context. Raising kids is super personal, and I don’t want to give blanket advice. I’m just sharing my opinions and perspectives as someone who was raised by two incredible parents.

If I said one of the hardest things about making your dream, or your small business, or your blog, or whatever, happen was just doing it, would you believe me? Because the truth is, that is the hardest part. And ironically, that is the one big thing standing in your way. Just executing. Nobody can argue with execution. Once you’re getting shit done, you’re on your way. But taking that first step can be terrifying. I get it. I really do. Fear of failure can take over. And lots of us have this fear. But the real question you should be asking yourself is: who are you afraid to fail in front of? Your mom? Best friend? A sibling? A mentor? That is what holds people back. That their choice won’t be accepted by someone they admire or look up to. You might think you’re doing so well because you have a nice, solid life and your loved ones accept it and support it. And maybe you’ve achieved your dream and that’s amazing. But you can’t give a shit about what other people think of you. Yes, not even your parents. If you
