Bloopers: Lots and Lots of Mistakes
Click Here to Watch Video
As sales professionals, we are used to making mistakes – lots and lots of mistakes. Recently, Treeline has asked a few consultants to do a quick pitch to inform the public about some tools that we just rolled out, Join Our Network and DADO. We taped the consultants doing these sales pitches so that we could put them up on YouTube and spread the good word on what Treeline is trying to accomplish.
I volunteered to give the pitch a try. If you know me, I am a fairly personable guy who is not very shy. I have no problem speaking in front of people and 9 times out of 10 – I will not be a complete disaster. When the camera is on – it is a different story. This clip is to illustrate how many mistakes it takes to get something right. The answer?! – lots and lots of mistakes. The biggest mistake, however, occurred when the camera was off and I forgot to erase my outtakes…now here they are for your enjoyment. If you are feeling down about yourself, get ready to feel better – you’re welcome.

212 Degrees: The Difference Between the Rainmaker and the Average Sales Professional
http://www.212movie.com/
As a sales manager, one of your greatest responsibilities is to motivate your team. It is your job to build an enthusiastic and energetic environment that breeds an attitude of endurance, persistence and winning. Every sales manager has their own motivational tactics that they’ve used, but every once in a while it’s nice to have some type of collateral that speaks for itself.
A few months ago I showed a short movie to our team that got the blood flowing again. The movie is called 212 degrees and it is about the 1 degree that makes water boil. That one degree makes all the difference and for a community of sales professionals that one degree defines the difference between the rainmaker and the average sales professional. Please click this link to watch the video and share your thoughts.

Live from Fox 25!
Recently I did a live interview with Fox TV and wanted to share my experience. The first thing I have to say is that the team at Fox News is incredible. Every single person there is a consummate professional, very personable and, most of all, positive. Because of that team, the experience of being on live TV was awesome.
With my first experience on live TV back in January, I was unsure of what to expect and had no idea of what to anticipate. On multiple occasions, I have spoken at events in front of audiences of more than 1,000 attendees. So, I channeled my past experiences so that I felt comfortable that everything would go off without a hitch this time around.
What I have found, is that the people who I surround myself with are never short of pre-interview advice. From how I sit, to how I speak, even to how I dress (I wear a suit and tie every day) – everyone had some input for me. My advice to anyone who is subject to an influx of said advice is to listen, say ‘thank you’, and move on. The one major piece of advice that I took to heart and utilized during the interview was to just be myself. Many people will offer suggestions prior to the interview but I think the most genuine way to conduct an interview is to just be yourself. Know who you are and offer honest and genuine input that you believe in. I am a huge subscriber to Karma. What you give to this world will come back ten fold so always do the right thing. And being yourself is very ‘right.’
After the interview had ended and the lights and cameras were no longer on me – I got into my car, drove to the office and continued being me. It was a great experience and I believe in the message I delivered. Most of all, I hope my words helped some people. We, at Treeline, are neck deep with the challenges of this job market everyday and there are people out there who need to know that they are not alone. For those people, I hope that my time on TV let them know that we are all in this together.
Some people may have liked the interview and others may have not. I would love to hear your opinion now that you have seen the footage. Thoughts?
