I ghostwrite for the Executive Chairman of a $20B media company, one of the youngest female VC's in U.S. history, and Tony Robbins’ ex right-hand man with 37 years of sales experience. And here are the top 3 lessons they’ve taught me about how to find success in your career: 1. Proximity is power. You can only grow so far in isolation. Every one of them has gotten to where they are because of who they’ve been around—advisors, mentors, investors, and peers who are already playing at a higher level. → If you're not being challenged by your circle, it's time to expand it. → Go where the people you want to be like hang out, events, masterminds, Slack groups, industry dinners. 2. You have to tell people what you want. This was one of the biggest patterns I noticed across all three clients: they don’t wait to be “discovered.” They ask, clearly and confidently. Here’s what that looks like in action for professionals: → Want to speak at conferences? Start telling people you're available to speak. Add it to your LinkedIn bio. Include it in your intro when networking. → Want to move into leadership? Tell your manager directly: “I want to be considered for management opportunities. What would that path look like?” → Want to change industries or roles? Start posting content about your transition. Let your network know what you’re looking for. Most people will never help you if they don’t know how. We're often scared to come off as pushy, but professionals at the top don’t see it that way. They’re just clear communicators. And clarity creates opportunities. 3. One person can change your life. One person can introduce you to an investor, hire you, feature you in a press piece, invite you to speak on a stage, or recommend you for a game-changing opportunity. But they can’t help you if they don’t know who you are—or what you do. That’s why I believe personal branding is the single most underrated career tool out there. You can be the smartest person in the room. But if no one knows your name, you’ll be overlooked. Success doesn’t just go to the best. It goes to the most visible. And the ones who ask for what they want.

If you think your pitch deck is the thing closing the deal, this video will probably make you uncomfortable in a good way. In this breakdown, Matt Easton exposes the biggest mistake salespeople make when presenting their products, services, and solutions: pitching too early and turning interested prospects off before the conversation even starts. You’ll learn why leading with slides kills momentum, how to slow the conversation down without losing authority, and the smarter way to present your pitch so prospects actually lean in instead of checking out. #salestraining #pitchdeck #salestips #b2bsales

You don’t get a better offer because you’re ready to sell. You get it because your agency still has momentum. Buyers want growth stories they can scale, not rescue missions. The strongest exits happen mid-climb. Build leverage before you need it. That’s when you control the story and the price. #AgencyGrowth #MergersAndAcquisitions #AgencyValuation #BusinessExit #Entrepreneurship

8-17-25/here’s a content breakdown for each of the 9 books you listed, with the “Why” (core reason to read) framed in plain business/sales/communication logic: ⸻ 1. Never Split the Difference — Chris Voss Why: Learn FBI-level negotiation tactics (mirroring, tactical empathy, calibrated questions) to win deals without giving away value. Perfect if you’re in sales, real estate, startups, or daily life negotiations. ⸻ 2. Customer Persuasion — Chloë Thomas Why: Step-by-step framework for turning cold prospects into loyal customers. Especially valuable for e-commerce, marketing funnels, and online entrepreneurs looking to structure customer journeys. ⸻ 3. To Sell is Human — Daniel Pink Why: Everyone is in sales, even if you’re not in “sales.” Pink reframes persuasion as a human skill—useful for pitching, leadership, or even parenting. Great mindset shift for non-salespeople. ⸻ 4. Pre-Suasion — Robert Cialdini Why: Teaches the “before the pitch” moment—how to frame and prime attention so people are already leaning toward “yes” before you even ask. Complements Influence. ⸻ 5. How to Win Friends & Influence People — Dale Carnegie Why: Timeless social skills. Teaches listening, validation, and rapport—still the foundation of persuasion 90 years later. Essential if you deal with people at all. ⸻ 6. Emotional Intelligence for Sales Success — Colleen Stanley Why: Sales isn’t just scripts and logic; it’s reading emotions, handling rejection, and staying calm under pressure. EQ helps you close complex, high-stakes deals. ⸻ 7. Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion — Robert Cialdini Why: The bible of persuasion. The 6 principles (reciprocity, scarcity, authority, consistency, liking, social proof) are the backbone of all marketing, sales, and persuasion playbooks. ⸻ 8. Agile Selling — Jill Konrath Why: In fast-moving industries, product knowledge changes overnight. This book shows you how to learn fast and adapt fast—critical for SaaS, startups, or disruptive markets. ⸻ 9. The Art and Business of Online Writing — Nicolas Cole Why: Writing = leverage. Cole shows how to build authority, attract leads, and monetize by consistently publishing online. A playbook for LinkedIn, Twitter/X, blogs, or newsletters. ⸻ 🔑 Are you missing any must-reads? If your focus is sales + persuasion + modern distribution, I’d add: • Spin Selling — Neil Rackham (classic enterprise sales framework) • The Challenger Sale — Dixon & Adamson (how to teach and reframe customer thinking) • Made to Stick — Chip & Dan Heath (why some ideas spread and others die) • Building a StoryBrand — Donald Miller (storytelling framework for marketing/sales copy) ⸻ 👉 Would you like me to make this into a 1-page visual bookshelf infographic (like “9 Must-Read Books on Sales & Persuasion” with short “Why” notes under each cover)? It would look clean for sharing on LinkedIn or as a teaching slide.

“Alessio, I sell my $10.000 value product at $699, and it’s still not selling” ☠️ “Why do you sell it so cheap?” “I just want to make sure it sells” …and here we are, having this conversation 😉 As someone who made my clients over $10million launching online courses, I’ve had this conversation more than I can count. Let me tell you what’s happening… Reality check: People are creating million-dollar businesses left, right and center these days. Some do it by selling a $100k product to 100 people, and some do it by selling a $10 product to 100.000 people. But here are a few less-obvious reasons why I absolutely love selling high price products, and I hope it will make you reconsider… 1. The people: If you’re selling a 10k product, you’re keeping yourself in a company of high-achievers. There’s no other way about it. 🤷‍♀️They’re successful, and they want to level up. I will never get tired of that energy, and that level of conversation. 2. The space to serve: One of the biggest apprehensions from people who want to sell low price products is that they want to serve the community. What they don’t realise is that selling a high-price product means that you have so much more time and freedom to come up with community driven solutions, or even give a few services completely free. Fill your cup first, it’s the only way to serve others. 3. The (personal) growth: We learn faster in challenging environments. Selling a $10k product is really terrifying at first. And I am convinced that it elevates our skill and makes us commit to delivering a top-notch service or product. It keeps us accountable, which means that everybody wins. The thing is - the customer can see you are grasping for air when you sell a 10k product at a fraction of the price.  And nobody wants to learn from desperate people. (There, I said it) So, you tell me - did I convince you to raise your pricing? 😉
