Michael Stone, VP Sales, Wpromote
#1 ranked Inc500 Search Marketing Firm:
Working with Aaron Ross has been nothing short of
amazing
His methods produced a profitable and scalable new stream
of predictable revenue.
We saw at least 40+% new business growth.
Deal size is still growing.
Were getting in the door with big brands like Overstock,
AT&T, IBM, etc. people that would have never come to us.
The best part is, we had a blast while doing it!

Unique Genius Attracts Results
1. What is your purpose that is bigger thanyou?
If your company is on the cover of BusinessWeek
for changing ____, what did you do?
2. Do you only say it or do you LIVE it?
Salesforce.com No software
Zappos: Provide the best customer service

Forget About What You Do
Customers care less about what you do thanthe results you create We are the leading application platform for widget
integration on the social graphblah blah
My example: I am a sales & management consultant vs.

leaders turn their employees into Mini-CEOs

Homework
When someone asks What do you do?, pretendthey asked How do you help customers?
What is your Ideal Customer Profile?
Talk to your customers & ask them:
What difference have you made to them?
Why did they do business with you?
Why do they continue to do business with you?
Why would they refer others to you?

3 Keys To Making Contact
1. Train salespeople to be business peoplewho can sell, not sales people
Use role-playing
2. Keep initial emails/vmails short & relevant Make it about giving them value, not about you
If they pick up: Did I catch you at a bad time?
3. Propose a specific time to talk Wrong: Reach out when you have time
Right: Are you free Thursday at 9a PST?
