Selling During Lockdown Special ן Not Another D*ckhead with a Podcast ן Series Two #4

[@noahkrivickas285]

why does Mike look like a abstract painting ?

[@donegaldan102]

I work in sales/retentions from home for a past few weeks and I think because I feel more relaxed. My conversation rate has gone up. I don't know if that's a reflection on myself or a native working environment.

[@hichamgbrm1393]

I agree with you mate! I wish you the best and by the way did your sales rates go up in the native environnement ?

[@grahamwilkinson6902]

Benjamin for the win!

[@sirguy6678]

“A rose 🌹 by any other name” - sales and marketing techniques adapts with the technology- it’s still the same results regardless of by LinkedIn, phone calls, or face to face interactions

[@callumhornigold1961]

I work with C-levels in some of the largest enterprises in the world. While I think Benjamin is a legend, the idea of just phoning them is madness and not at all pragmatic. You’d spend days trying to get to top level on the phone, whereas LinkedIn provides an instant channel to talk to them on a one-to-one basis. In short, if I needed an old school telesales guy who has the dark art mastered, I’d employ Benjamin. Other than that the other gent wins hands down. Update: I agree with Benjamin though. The term social selling is BS. It’s inbound marketing. Selling starts after your first objection.

[@i9incher]

I think it depends on the exec. I've gotten the CIO of AT&T and Enterprise into sales meetings because I sent them an email. But I've known sales reps that got high level execs because they've used partner relationships. I think phoning can work IF you have the brand recognition. Obviously a call from a fortune 500 exec is going to go through more than a call from some company nobody has ever heard of. Even then, I think Benjamin's strength comes from him acting like he already knows the prospect and that they're expecting his call so that he can get past the gate keepers.

[@garychohan4987]

@ Callum .. That's (respectfully) down to your abilities surely? If you can't call, prospect and move the call forward then yeah message them on LinkedIn like everyone else... And wait for if and when they reply. If my sales team did this they'd drown.. just my opinion

[@loft725]

And the beauty is that Benjamin has perfected the art of LinkedIn marketing. Useds a message that cold calling isn't dead. 70% of the audience go nuts over this (oh no it isn't... oh yes it is). Runs a couple of A1 videos of cold calling. Spikes in the interest of the masses, gets himself know for cold calling... doesn't have to cold call (to get business, he says himself that he does it to keep sharp)

[@Michael-4]

You need both skills and both tools. It's using the best tool for the job. SN gets you access for better than a call. Once the relationship is there move on to the phone and ftf to agree a deal. You can't do that on LI unless you are selling buttons.

[@jasonjack1564]

hahaha Ben loving the compliments 😅 I'm in New Zealand and all the F2F companies here have just tried to adapt and find products to cold call on the phones.. but like you said everyone realised theres no need for a boss if they can find a business or someone with a product or something to sell then they can do it themselves.. I'm still looking 😂

[@zaclegend132]

Yeeewwwwww!!! New Zealand!! Moved here yesterday :)

[@pettykingdomlive]

The more Daniel moves his dead, the less I believe him.

[@traderbarry9139]

hahahahahaha

[@Ben-xf7uy]

God its hard not to like Benjamin. Haha his success is well deserved

[@andyvozzamusic]

Saying which one is better, in this case, is like asking: 'Is Pizza better than burgers?' You might prefer one over the other but they are both great dishes. I think it's about individuals and using your assets at their fullest. If you are better at one instead of the other, just do the one you are better at.

[@twistedlemoen]

I might be the only one, but I can't stand The Daily Sales.

[@baldeepbirak]

Have met Dan, great tips provided. Like Benyamin's advice too. For me use a range a tools, techniques to maximise on the lead gen to completion of work.

[@ericthomas513]

I have to agree with Ben. "Social Selling" is Prospecting. However, although VERY Extremely RARE, sales can occur strictly via social media vehicles.

[@jpquinn1989]

Insightful video, they don’t differ on too much because they both know what they’re talking about. Most points they make are sensible and agreed with. They’re both clearly great salesmen. Ben is almost certainly better on the phone though I think Daniel is probably more versatile.

[@sllfox6652]

Daniel Disney used to sell Avon (vomit emoji)... The Aussie Bloke won. like if you agree..

[@alan163441]

Your content is the bollocks mate, I am learning so much from what your putting out..... opening my eyes massively

[@workinghard7013]

Salespeople hide behind the telephone?? Never in my life I ever saw any salespeople like to do sales calls by phone, they all love doing " social marketing " because they no need to face real people!

[@MikeWinnet]

Agree, majority.

[@workinghard7013]

@@MikeWinnet thanks for the reply! not gonna lie I trust benjamin in this topic, social marketing only works if you have fat pile of cash ready to burn, if u are broke, u gotta humble yourself do the dirties job which is cold call by phone

[@joeh462]

Phone selling is much more powerful than social selling. So for me I’m team Ben.

[@DagenhamGilly]

Hi guys...Iam a 30 plus sales professional, schooled on Tom Hopkins and Brian Tracey and my own skills. This is one of the best debates on You Tube. Ima with the guy with the red hat....Benny Boy....I may also buy the other guys book as selling via LinkedIn is something I wan to explore.

[@pamcc4413]

Great debate Mike! Do you have any recruitment focused Podcasts/Debates lined up for Season 2?

[@spiderben3563]

Great video, some great advice from Daniel about messages to connect. Entertaining and educational

[@justsean6199]

I rewatched the first one early morning. This ties in perfect.

[@DanielRobertspiano]

Yes good to see Benjamin back!

[@WHITEBOARDSTRATEGIES]

My two-penneth.... Like you guys, I also work for myself, and so I can do lots of creative posting on LinkedIn. However... People that work for corporates aren't typically allowed to 'create content' at will, and so if they do post every day (as is commonly recommended), it is usually a re-post of some content from the marketing department (typically, not very engaging or meaningful). Still, this is a good debate to be had. More please...

[@bobbymcm4768]

This channel is class. Have you thought about getting Oliver Cookson on? (founder of myprotein) just saw on his linked in that hes launching a podcast next month.

[@petescott]

This interview/battle deserves far more views, but if the title was marketing during lockdown it would likely have 2390432094329043280,93403924390,9340932 views. Why? Because sales means doing the work and marketing (the vast majority believe) is a funnel where leads and make 1 million per month is residual income.

[@craiggallagher8397]

Loved this guys

[@redDavy1965]

Hey. Thanks for your great content. Note, your link to the Shaf Rasul KZbin channel in your description is broken.

[@MikeWinnet]

Cheers Andy

[@itsbrianfogg]

Why is Mike's head upside down?

[@DagenhamGilly]

Selling is the Easy work and little pay and Hardest work with the greatest pay.....Tom Hopkins.

[@robindhawksworth]

Nice conversation....

[@volkan.demircan]

Great content! Thank you, Mike.

[@theclassificationguru]

Loved this, great video, entertaining AND educational....

[@MrT79shakeshake]

Not sure about the 'Mujahideen Winnet' Look. Benjamin is on point as always despite recording on a potato and using an etchascetch.

[@treasurerose6732]

Loved this Podcast, both have interesting perspectives and angles to cultivate sales and awarensss

[@tilosobelman3114]

social selling = longer sales process?

[@BenRangel]

If a book was called "social prospecting" people wouldn't get it. "social selling" is much more clear. Isn't sales/selling effectively an umbrella term for all things salesmen do - even if prospecting and selling are different steps in the process

[@InspireMeSports]

Love what you are doing mike, and cool to see it is someone local to me 👍

[@andygreen2073]

This is the most one-sided debate ever

[@mikeormond7883]

Loving the beard mike

[@robertbuxton3018]

You can choose to not go on linkedin - you can't not have a phone.

[@granddoll]

Hi, Please make a video of future jobs after the virus or skills to learn for the future.

[@philmckay9973]

jeremy was awesome in Yes Man

[@cryptomavic1]

Mike trying to pull off drake hahahahahahaha

[@RustOnWheels]

[ Video ] Mike: “Is the cold phone dead?” [ Advertisement kicks in ] Kevin David: “Drop shipping is dead!” Best cut to an ad ever, even if it’s an ad by a scamming fake guru.

[@kaliban2747]

Mike, have you got a Bo Selecta filter on or is that beard real?

[@MikeWinnet]

I've swapped bum chin comments for beard comments 😂

[@marktovey273]

What does Benjamin's cap say? Make something great again...

[@MikeWinnet]

Sales

[@engma2006]

Make Salesmen Great Again

[@itsjustlikethatbro]

This fella mike looks like he’s got a snapchat filter on his face haha

[@jarradtj214]

Mike you need to do another video on Samuel Leeds, this guy has gotten out of control

[@jarradtj214]

Michael M Because quite clearly, everyone can not see it as he’s still out there lying and ripping people off more than ever. There’s a huge number of people who are about to take legal action against him, the situation needs a lot more exposure than it currently has because people still don’t know his true back story and are getting themselves into dangerous debt through cunning manipulation and lies .The more you research the guy the more crazy it gets.

[@gdnygma490]

Mike Ross

[@tarot-karma-online]

Mike Winnet now partnering with his local mosquee? Trying to gain more trust & interact on a visual basis with most part of London ? Just asking ...

[@smckinnonkitchens4820]

Do you need a beard to sell? Asking for a friend 🧔🏻

[@shakhster8382]

I have no doubt that both could give some correct sales advice. The LinkedIn chap Is a fraud. His body language and tone of voice give away that he is acting out. In my experience great (and successful) sales people don’t go into training in the same way billionaires don’t do ‘how to’ courses.

[@DB86563]

Mike looks like Drake?

[@happydayssunny7830]

I think Mike looks like a virtual cartoon 😂👍 luv ur podcast and have saved a fortune from watching u Sir thank u 👍

[@thedr00]

This is not an either/or discussion, use both. To be prospecting on linkedin is not mutually exclusive of cold calling. You go where your prospects are. If some respond over phone, call em, if some prefer social messaging, do it. The "argument" is just clickbait IMO.

[@Michael-4]

That's the worst beard I've ever seen, but it does hide the chin.

[@gamersaroundtheworldunite3362]

Michael nah mate it’s his brother Abdul Hal - winnet

[@JRBA2906]

Daniel comes across poorly here imo. Reactions and responses are too defensive, face like he's smelled the worst deuce known to man. No offence but you look and sound like you have such a chip on your shoulder dude. Benjamin speaks assured and relaxed about his argument. For more info sign up to my 'how to argue' seminar. 1 spot left.

[@GongMasterFlash]

Benjamin is not a great social media guru, remember when he had a meltdown and started comparing some salespeople to the Iranians that had recently shot down a commercial flight?

[@harvuk7729]

3 minutes in and this daniel guy already seems like a greasy salesman. Don't trust him right of the bat so lets see what happends and see if my opinion changes by the end :)

[@harvuk7729]

after watching it all he wasnt as bad as i first thought :)

[@harvuk7729]

@Michael M first impressions count for a lot

[@lew6433]

first! ✌️
