Defining What A Guide is In Sales - Loy Day, - CEO, The Guide Culture

Summary:

Loy Day is the founder an co-CEO of The Guide Culture. A sales training and consultancy business where he teaches people from all walks of life about a framework that's helped him throughout his entire sales career. Loy started his career as a school teacher and sports coach. He went on to insurance sales where he owned a very successful insurance agency in Georgia. Lloyd built his business on tried and true fundamentals of connecting with people and being authentic in the process. He teaches that framework now to salespeople, entrepreneurs, and even parents. This episode was great. We talk about how to build value as opposed to adding it, the key reasons why people buy, and how to get doubts into the open. If mothers take Lloyd training to be better moms and husbands take it to be better husbands, you want to listen to this one!

Key Moments:

4:27 - What Loy learned about sales and inspiring others from his days as a teacher and a coach

13:18 - Why it’s so important to believe in what you’re selling and being authentic, highly spiritual, and on obligation.

About the Podcast

Sell By Being Human
We all want to be heard, seen, and understood. This podcast shares stories of how all humans sell just by being great humans.
I believe that all people want to be heard, seen, and understood. But how do we get people to hear, see, and understand us effectively? Salespeople train themselves on techniques to do this but there are people doing it well without the word sales showing up anywhere in their job title or job description. This podcast is designed to help us hone our human skills, understand subtle similarities between non-sales people and salespeople, and show how we can learn from both groups the next time we need to create change and sell by being human.

You will learn from people throughout all walks of life. Nurses, coaches, janitors, event planners, HR executives, and architects. Just to name a few. We'll contrast them with trained sales people to show similarities and differences. There's an art to human connection and sales. We all do it differently and we can all learn from our every day human interactions.

Please contact me and let me know who you see in your life selling by being human! I want to shine a light on them.
