Ben has a truly unbelievable and colorful background and history!
He is an unbelievable salesperson first of all. He has worked with some of the most renowned leaders, such as Zig Ziglar, and executives within NASA and built multi-million dollar businesses from the ground up!
I asked Ben, what does he do that has made him so very successful especially in his sales career? His response was thoughtful, simple and to the point. “I just did my job.”
He actually gave me a few really good points on being highly successful.
- Work ethic. Do your job to the best of your ability.
- Continue learning. Learn the product, learn the scripts, and get to work.
- Listening and communication are critical to every aspect of success – regardless of the area, and regardless of the business.
Ben shared two statements that will stick with me for a long time. First, I asked him, If he could offer advice to someone else coming up in business and leadership – what would you tell them?
“Get serious sooner.” ~ Ben Gay III
Meaning the sooner you get real about what it is that you are doing, the sooner you will be successful and make good money at it. I also asked Ben, “With so many different things that you are involved in – what are you MOST passionate about? What fires you up?” He offered me this amazing statement.
“I want to turn the lights on for others… because I had others turn the lights on for me.
You see, a purpose-driven successful life is about helping others, leaving people better than when you started, being truly impactful and lifting others up.
I am telling you… you need to watch this whole episode. It’s well worth it, Ben shares a wealth of knowledge and wisdom.
