Scott Ingram:\r\nYou're listening to the Daily Sales Tips podcast and I'm your host, the real Scott Ingram. If you haven't yet listened to this week's tips from 1824 through 1828 and my little AI experiment, I'd highly encourage you to do so. Today I've got one final piece I wanted to share with you. If you haven't played with Google's Notebook LM you've got to try it. You can upload any content and it will do all sorts of things with it. You can create FAQs, Study Guides, Briefing Docs or just ask it questions, but one of the most impressive things are these customized audio overviews. Here's what I got after loading up this week's sales tips.<\/span><\/pre>\n
\n
AI Speaker 1:\r\nWelcome back, everybody, to another deep dive. Today we've got some really cool material to dig into about sales success.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nYeah, this is great stuff. I'm really excited to dig in here with you and see what we can pull out.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAll right, so I think to give everyone a little bit of context, we've got several different articles, we've got some research papers, some notes that you all sent in, and we're going to try to extract the gold from all of this and really give you some actionable insights to improve your sales game.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nI think that's a great approach. And what really jumps out at me from these sources is the common thread of adaptation and learning. Sales is such a dynamic field. Things change rapidly, so that ability to evolve is crucial.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAbsolutely. And speaking of adapting and learning, I wanted to jump right into Michelle Baker's concept of masterminding your path to peer powered profitability. She's really advocating for going beyond that basic networking and moving into true collaboration and growth.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nYeah, it's about taking it to that next level.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nRight.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nLike, think of a mastermind group as like your own personal board of advisors, but it's composed of your peers, people who really understand your challenges and where you want to go.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like having your own personal dream team in your corner.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And Baker found that this kind of structured support can significantly increase your chances of reaching your goals.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nMakes sense. It's like having a workout buddy.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYou're more likely to stay on track when you've got someone else pushing you and keeping you accountable.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. And there's actually some data to back that up. The American Society of Training and Development found that having an accountability partner makes you 65% more likely to achieve your goals. But get this, when you participate in regular group check ins, that number jumps to 95%.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWow. 95%. That's huge. So we're not just talking about, like a feel good thing. This is actually proven to have a real impact.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And Baker outlines three key benefits of masterminds. The first one is accelerated growth through accountability.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWhich makes perfect sense. Right. Like you said, it's easier to stay motivated when you've got that support system in place.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nImagine a sales team working on a tough campaign. They're meeting regularly, sharing their progress, offering encouragement, providing constructive feedback. That shared commitment can be the key to hitting those ambitious targets.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah, it's like having a whole team of cheerleaders and coaches all rolled into one plan. All right, so what's the second benefit that Baker highlights?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt's called diversity of insights and solutions. And it's all about tapping into the power of different perspectives. Think about it. If you're struggling with a tough negotiation or a tricky problem, a mastermind group can offer a ton of different ideas and solutions that you might never have thought of on your own.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo it's like crowdsourcing your solutions.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nMore brains working on the problem, the better.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And again, it's not just a nice idea. This is backed by research. The Journal of Applied Psychology found that diverse groups outperform homogenous ones in problem solving by almost 20%.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo the more diverse your mastermind, the better.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nOkay, so we've got accountability and diversity. What's the third benefit? Real time peer mentorship. It's like having a mini advisory board on speed dial. You get advice and feedback from people who understand your industry and your specific challenges, but you get it instantly.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nThat's huge. Because in today's fast paced business world, you need answers quickly. You can't wait weeks or months for feedback.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. And this approach has been shown to be super effective. 70% of mastermind participants report increased productivity and improved goal achievement.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, so we know the benefits are real, but how do you actually put together a mastermind group that works?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nWell, it starts with finding three to five individuals who share similar goals and aspirations. They could be colleagues, industry peers, people you've met through online communities. The key is finding people who are genuine, genuinely committed to growth, and who are willing to both give and receive support.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, so you've got your dream team assembled. What's next?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nYou need to set up a regular meeting schedule, whether it's weekly or bi weekly, and dedicate that time to discussing goals, challenges, strategies. It's about creating that structured environment to foster accountability and progress.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nBut don't forget to celebrate those wins. Acknowledging each Other's successes keeps the energy positive and keeps everyone motivated. So you've got your mastermind in place. You're crushing your goals. Now it's time to focus on closing those deals. And David Weiss has this great framework called PROTECT to help us do just that.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nYeah, Weiss designed PROTECT as, like, this comprehensive tool to guide salespeople through that whole deal management process, from qualifying leads to successfully closing. He breaks it down into seven key elements. Each one addresses a specific area where deals can go off track if you're not careful.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAll right, let's break it down. We're ready to hear about these seven elements, starting with P, which stands for problem. What's the key takeaway here?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nWeiss really emphasizes understanding the customer's problem and digging deeper than just what they tell you on the surface. It's about quantifying the impact of the problem, not just in financial terms, but also the emotional and functional implications.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo it's really about seeing the whole picture and understanding how the problem is affecting the customer on multiple levels. Not just throwing a product at them, but becoming a true advisor who can help them solve their pain points.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. It's about building trust and establishing yourself as a valuable partner. All right, moving on to R, which stands for roles.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, why is this element so important?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nBecause you need to identify all the key players involved in the decision making process. This includes the decision makers, obviously, but also the economic buyers, the end users, any influencers, anyone who has a stake in the outcome. If you don't have a clear picture of who's involved and what their motivations are, you're going to miss some crucial steps in the sales process.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah, you might end up pitching to the wrong person or failing to address key concerns that could kill the deal. It's like trying to navigate a maze without a map.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. Next up is O, which stands for options.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, so what does VICE emphasize here?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt's about making sure your proposed solution is the best choice among all the available options, including the competition. It's not enough to just present your solution. You need to demonstrate why it's the best fit for the customer, especially compared to what else is out there.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo it's about strategic positioning. Okay, Next up is T. Threats. What are we talking about here?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nThreats are anything that could derail the deal. They could come from all sorts of places. Budget constraints, internal resistance to change, market fluctuations, you name it. The key is to identify these threats early on and have a plan to address them proactively.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nLike a good chess player, you gotta anticipate your opponent's moves. All right, we've covered Pro T. What comes next in the protect framework?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nE, which stands for executive case. This is where you build that rock solid business case to justify the change you're proposing.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, so you're not just talking about the cool features of your product. You're showing the customer how your solution will actually impact their bottom line.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. It's about connecting your solution to clear ROI and a compelling value proposition. Okay, now we move on to C for commitment.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWhat's involved in this step?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt's about securing clear commitments from everyone involved in the deal. You map out the decision making process, you outline key milestones and make sure everyone's board with the next steps, you're moving from discussion to action.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOkay, so you're basically creating that roadmap for how the deal is going to progress. And finally, T again, this time for transition. What does this last element of protect entail?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt's all about ensuring a smooth handoff from the sales team to the service team once the deal is closed. You want to make sure the customer continues to realize the value of your solution and you set the stage for a long and happy relationship.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's about thinking beyond the close and building that lasting partnership. Okay, so we've got this fantastic framework, but how do we actually put it into practice?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nWeiss suggests using a color coding system, red, yellow and green, to assess each element of protect for a specific deal. Red means there's a weakness or a lack of information, yellow means it needs more attention, and green means you're good to go.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nI like that. It's like a quick visual health check for your deal. Okay, let's shift gears for a bit and dive into Kaylee Connor's insights on self enablement and process documentation. I'm really intrigued by her concept of learning by reproducing successful processes and the role documentation plays in that.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nConnor is all about taking ownership of your learning and development. She believes documentation is key, not just for sharing knowledge with others, but also for clarifying your own thinking and refining your processes.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd she has this great story about how this approach shaped her own learning journey. Can you tell us a bit more about that?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nShe describes herself as someone who learns best by taking something that worked, figuring out exactly how it worked, and then documenting it so she can repeat it. That way she captures all the little nuances and can refine her approach over time to create a system that consistently delivers results.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like building a playbook for sales success. Okay, but what I find really interesting is that Connor emphasizes The benefits of documentation for both individuals and teams.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. For individuals, it's a way to capture knowledge, refined processes, and avoid having to reinvent the wheel every time you face a similar challenge.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like building your own personal knowledge base. For teams, documentation promotes clear communication, reduces those time consuming explanations, and helps new team members get up to speed quickly.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd then there's Connor's brilliant three times rule. If you find yourself answering the same question three times, document the answer.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's such a simple rule, but it's so effective. It helps you identify those knowledge gaps and create resources that everyone can benefit from. And I love her quote about hating the response. I don't know, I just do it. It highlights how important it is to be able to articulate your processes and share your knowledge in a way that others can understand.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. If you can't explain it, do you really understand it?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nOkay, so we've covered Masterminds, the Protect Framework, and the Power of Self Enablement. Now let's delve into Todd Capone's thought provoking analysis of sales compensation models. He asks this crucial Are we incentivizing the right behaviors?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nThat's a great question, because sometimes it feels like we're rewarding the wrong things.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nWell, Capone delves into the history of sales compensation and points out something really interesting. While business priorities have evolved like crazy over the years, compensation structures have stayed remarkably consistent.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo there's this disconnect between what we're trying to achieve as businesses and how we're rewarding our salespeople.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And Capone uses this great example to illustrate his point. He compares two salespeople, one who consistently sells at list price and another who prioritizes closing large deals, even if it means offering huge discounts.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo the classic closer versus the relationship builder.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. And the thing is, in many traditional compensation models, the discounter, the one who closes those big deals even at a lower price, often ends up getting rewarded more.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWhich makes no sense if the company is focused on profitable growth.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. It might look good on paper in the short term, but if those sales aren't profitable, it's not a sustainable strategy.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo how do we fix this? How do we ensure that our compensation models are actually driving the behaviors we want?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nCapon suggests shifting the focus away from purely revenue based metrics and towards metrics that reflect profitability.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo things like profit margin, customer lifetime value, recurring revenue.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. We need to incentivize behaviors that contribute to long term sustainable growth. It's not just about closing deals, it's about Closing profitable deals that build lasting value.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt all comes back to value. Okay, ready for our last deep dive of this part?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nBring it on.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nLet's step into the world of AI and explore Scott Ingram's fascinating experiment with AI generated audio for his daily sales tips podcast.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nThis experiment gives us a glimpse into the incredible advancements in AI, particularly in voice cloning technology. It's a perfect example of how AI is popping up in places we never expected. And it raises some interesting questions about the future of content creation.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah, it's mind blowing how realistic this technology has become. Just a year and a half ago, the results were nowhere near as good as they are now.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd Ingram highlighted three key lessons from his experiment. First, continuous experimentation is essential to keep up with the insane pace of AI development. What seems impossible today could be commonplace tomorrow.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYou snooze, you lose, right? Especially in the tech world. What's the second lesson?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nProviding AI models with relevant data and context is crucial for getting the best possible output. The more information you give the AI, the better it's going to perform. It's not just about having access to the technology, it's about knowing how to use it effectively.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nSo it's like you're training the AI to do what you want.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAdaptability and a willingness to embrace new technologies are critical for success in this rapidly changing world. If you resist change, you're going to get left behind.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's all about having that growth mindset, being open to new possibilities. He's constantly learning and adapting. And Ingram's experiment is a perfect example of that.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. He didn't shy away from something new and potentially scary. He embraced it and explored its potential.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd that's the mindset we all need to have if we want to succeed in the age of AI.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nYou know, it's amazing how each of these experts are approaching sales from different angles, but they all seem to be saying the same thing. This need to constantly evolve and adapt.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah, it's like we're all trying to catch the same wave, but the wave keeps changing direction.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And that's why I think Kayleigh Connor's insights on self enablement are so valuable. It's not about waiting for someone to give you the answers. It's about taking ownership of your own development.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nShe's all about being proactive, isn't she?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nOh, absolutely, yeah. Documenting processes, building those knowledge libraries, creating resources. It's like she's constantly building this, this incredible encyclopedia of sales success.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd her three times rule. It's just genius. If you have to answer the same Question three times, you write down the answer. It's so simple, yet so effective.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt really is. It forces you to think about what you're doing and how you're doing it. Plus it saves everyone a ton of time in the long run.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd it creates this culture of knowledge sharing which is so important in today's world. Thinking back to Baker's masterminds, I bet documentation would be a game changer for those groups.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAbsolutely. Imagine a mastermind group where everyone is proactively documenting their wins, their struggles, the lessons they've learned. It would be like this incredible treasure, treasure trove of best practices and insights.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt would take the concept of collective intelligence to a whole new level. Okay, let's circle back to David Weiss's PROTECT framework for a second. How can we use this to improve collaboration within a sales team?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nOne way is to use it as a shared language for talking about deals. Like imagine a team using PROTECT to analyze a deal and figure out where the potential roadblocks are. It gives everyone a common understanding and makes the conversations much more focused.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like having a checklist for success. Okay. And I love Weiss's color coding system. Red, yellow, green. It's such a simple visual way to track progress.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. You can instantly see where you need to focus your attention. And when you combine that shared understanding with Connor's focus on knowledge sharing, you create this, this incredible synergy within the team.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like a one, two punch for sales success. Okay, let's bring Todd Capone back into the mix. How do we make sure our compensation models are actually driving the behaviors that lead to profit?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nThat's the million dollar question, isn't it? Capone's research shows how traditional commission based models can actually incentivize the wrong things. They can reward discounting and prioritize volume.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOver profitability, which can end up hurting the company in the long run.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nRight. It's like a sugar rush. It feels good at first, but then you crash. So what's the solution?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWell, I think we need to start by rethinking our metrics. Instead of just focusing on revenue, we need to look at things like profit margin, customer lifetime value, recurring revenue.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nWe need to reward behaviors that contribute to long term sustainable growth. It's not just about closing any deal. It's about closing profitable deals that build lasting value.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt all comes back to value. Okay, let's jump into the future for a minute and talk about the implications of Scott Ingram's AI experiment. His AI generated audio was pretty mind blowing, wasn't it, it was.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt really makes you think about where technology is headed and how it's going to impact the world of sales. It's like we're on the verge of something big.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt is, it's like AI is knocking on the door and we need to decide whether to let it in or not.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd I think the answer is to let it in. Cautiously and strategically. AI has the potential to transform so many aspects of sales, from lead generation, to personalization, to even closing deals.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWell, we need to be smart about it. We need to make sure we're using AI ethically and responsibly.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAbsolutely. It's about finding that balance between human ingenuity and technological innovation. It's not about replacing humans, it's about empowering them.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd it's about. About being prepared for a future where the lines between the physical world and the digital world are becoming increasingly blurred. Ingram's experiment is a perfect example of that.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt is. It shows us that what seemed impossible just a few years ago is now becoming reality. We need to be adaptable, open to new ideas, and willing to experiment.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWe can't be afraid of the future. We need to embrace it. Okay, so before we wrap up this part, I want to leave you with a thought provoking question. If you could use AI to enhance one aspect of your sales process, what would it be and why? Think about that for a bit. We'll be back in part three to explore some practical applications of these insights and share some final takeaways to help you master your sales success.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nOkay, so we've covered a ton of ground in this deep dive. We've talked about masterminds, frameworks, AI. Um, it's clear that the sales world is constantly changing. Right?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah. It's like you gotta be moving all the time just to stay in the same place.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And I think what's really cool is how all these different insights from these different experts, they all kind of point to this bigger picture of what it takes to be successful in sales today.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nLike they each have a piece of the puzzle, right?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And when you put all the pieces together, you get this, this image of the modern salesperson. It's someone who's not just a closer anymore. It's a crusted advisor, a consultant, a lifelong learner.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nYeah. Someone who's always adapting and evolving right alongside the industry. Right. It's not enough to just know your product anymore. You got to understand the customer's needs on a deeper level and you got.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nTo be able to back up your intuition with data and strategy.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's about building those long term relationships, those win win partnerships where everyone benefits.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd that requires a certain mindset. You got to be comfortable with change, you got to be open to new technologies, and you got to be committed to lifelong learning.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's about being proactive, seeking out opportunities to grow and learn, never settling for the status quo.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd that's where Kaylee Connor's insights on self enablement are so powerful. It's about taking control of your own.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nDevelopment, building that muscle, documenting your wins and losses, building your own knowledge base. It's like becoming your own personal sales guru.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. And then when you combine that self enablement with the power of masterminds like Baker was talking about, you create this incredible force multiplier.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nIt's like surrounding yourself with people who are just as hungry for knowledge and growth as you are.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. People who will challenge you and support you and hold you accountable. And of course, we can't forget about the impact of technology. Scott Ingram's experiment with AI generated audio was a real eye opener, wasn't it?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOh, yeah. It shows just how quickly things are moving in the AI world.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nAnd AI has the potential to revolutionize so many aspects of sales. But we gotta be careful, right?\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nOh, absolutely. We need to make sure we're using AI ethically and responsibly.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nIt's not about replacing humans. It's about empowering them. It's about finding that sweet spot where human ingenuity and technological innovation meet.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAnd that's a really important point because at the end of the day, it's still about people. It's about building relationships, connecting with customers, solving problems.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nExactly. Technology can help us do all of those things more effectively, but it can't replace the human touch.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nAll right, so as we wrap up this deep dive, I want to leave you all with one final thought. We've talked about a lot of different things today. Masterminds, frameworks, AI. But I think there's one more ingredient that's absolutely essential for success in sales. Yeah. And that's passion.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nPassion for your product, passion for your customers, passion for the art of selling.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nWhen you have that passion, it fuels everything you do. It drives you to learn and grow. It helps you overcome challenges, and it inspires you to reach new heights.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 2:\r\nSo as you go out there and conquer the world of sales, remember to hold on to that passion. Let it be your guide.\r\n\r\nAI Speaker 1:\r\nNever stop learning. Never stop growing. And never, never, ever lose that fire in your belly. Thanks for joining us on this deep dive.
