Last year I did a presentation at FunnelHacking Live that brought in $3.2 million.
Literally, within 90 minutes… $3.2 million in our Stripe account.
As far as I know it's a world record.
But 20 years ago I did a presentation that bombed and I was literally about to quit my career as an entrepreneur altogether!
It was my first-ever live sales presentation.
I'd just seen speaker after speaker make over $50,000 with their pitches – but after I finished my pitch…
The sound guy messed up so my grand finale with motivational music totally flopped
Not a single person stood up to come get my offer at the back of the room
Just TOTAL SILENCE
It was horrible…
I ran to my hotel room and spent the next 2 days locked away watching movies and eating Haagen Daaz and coconut shrimp on room service.
I felt SO embarrassed my pitch had panned.
All I could think was 'I QUIT'!
But…
Today I'm going to tell how everything changed when I discovered a couple 'secrets'.
First, a little backstory.
My obsession with sales presentations started back in the early 2000s when I spent all my money to see an Armand Morin seminar.
After the first speaker's pitch the most amazing thing happened.
TABLE RUSH!
People were jumping over chairs and tables to get to the back of the room and pay $2,000 to get the speaker's offer.
I counted 20 then 25 then 30 people… the speaker had made over $60,000!
The same thing happened over and over again.
I have to learn this skill!
A couple years later I got my chance.
A friend asked if I wanted to speak at their event.. I was SO excited that my dream was gonna come true!
I worked for days and days on my presentation.
Now..
You may have seen my talking today and think, "Dang, Russell is super confident when he talks".
But back then…
I was super shy and awkward and I crammed my pitch into just 20 seconds at the end of my presentation.
When it totally flopped…
Quitting was all I could think of!
The thing is, I'd told my wife and my family and my friends all about how my life was going to change…
And for a long time my wife was working 2 jobs to support us.
I'd spent years and years trying to sell products online and I'd convinced everyone of my success… everyone except me!
Eventually I dragged myself to another conference and suddenly had this idea.
There are speakers who look like me, talk like me and dress like me… and they can make over $60,000 in an hour.
What if this is a learnable skill?
What if there were specific methods, techniques and tricks I could pick up from top speakers?
As soon as I had this idea everything changed for me…
And after I discovered those 'secrets'…
I did a sales pitch that closed 60% of the entire room watching the presentation.
I'm going to tell you the 'secrets' that got me there.
Look out for it in my next email!
