Don't do this through WhatsApp


The podcast? Recorded online.
The sale? Done via email.
Prospecting? Through social media.

Dating? On Tinder.

Saying no? Through WhatsApp.

Firing someone? On a piece of paper.

The meeting? On videoconference.

The reasons for a raise? In a Power Point.

Persistence? Better not, just in case it annoys someone.
​
Something very similar was explained a few days ago by the great Monge Malo, the best sales coach in Spanish language this week.

​

And he is so right.
​
​

You spend your life doing whatever it takes to avoid conflict, risk, expense, or loss…
​
​

Weak. Gallina.

​

Go, call, show up, and slam your fist on the table.

​
The sale, the raise, the agreement, the job done, are in the conflict.

In facing it, accepting that it’s an essential part of a fulfilling life.

​

Seek out the conflict, don’t avoid it.
No one ever won a war by hiding in the trenches. Worse yet, they ended up dying just the same.

​

Since you’re going to be rejected anyway, since they’ll get annoyed and even insult you no matter what, at least do what you need to do to make it happen.

Every December, projects enter a strange parallel universe. And this week everything explodes. Budgets are frozen. Teams disappear. And every email ends with “before the Christmas break, please.” If you have been in “a Change approved before the Christmas break”. “A package submitted before…”. Etc. You’re in the trap. I did it once… Years ago. A change to be “approved” before the end of the year. So we rushed. Design team, commercial, legal, operations, the construction… everyone. Sleepless...

As many of you, I’m flying now. Holidays. Family. “Relax”… if a three years-old allow you to do so. Before I used my more than 20 hours of flight time to catch up with movies or read that book I definitely wanted to have read before arriving to destination. Now, I have to sync my sleep with the little one and get into the loop of all Disney Cars movies and Bluey shows. Still I have time to think of my next project. My next investment. And not just real estate, but also education and training....

It’s a superpower. But people are not interested in the others’ point of view. Just in theirs. We are egocentric by nature. So listening it’s a superpower. I let the agent to do the talking. My side, just questions and nodding. Disclosures? None… well… there was some flooding… Price expectations? This property in 2021 would be selling by… Yes, but what are the owners expectations today. Well… in January, they received an offer by X and was rejected, now… I’m not sure what they owners will...
