My name is Taylor Armstrong and I went from $50 in my bank account and struggling for groceries to closing 150 deals in a year and cracking the code on why sales reps fail. I teach you to avoid the mistakes I made and bringing the top solar dogs, the industry to let you in on the secrets of generating more leads, falling up like a pro and closing more deals. What is a Solarpreneur you might ask a Solarpreneur is a new breed of solar pro that is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve mastery and you are about to become one. Boom. What's going on Taylor. I'm strong hereSpeaker 2 (00:44):To help you your life easier as a solar sales professional, and close more deals, generate more referrals, and hopefully have a much better time in the solar industry. So today's episode is what to do if you hate knocking, or if you're struggling to get out there and knock. And a quick prep is for that. The reason I am doing this episode is because I'll be blunt. I have struggled to knock as many hours as I want and need to lately. And I think it's a deeper issue. There gets to a point where you need to go and just identify your why, why are you out there? Go seven levels deep. So that's something that I'm going to do. And that's the first thing I would invite you to do. If you are struggling to get out there and knock doors, you're struggling with the motivation, figure out why you're even doing this.Speaker 2 (01:38):Why do you want to make, you know, six, seven figures, whatever your goal is this year, go write it down and go seven layers deep. If you haven't listened to the episode, um, I think it was a couple months back, but it was uh, about how to increase your confidence in sales. Actually, one of our more downloaded episodes, go listen to it though, because I talk about an exercise. It's great for this to just going seven levels, deep on your why and figuring out why you're really motivated to do the things that you're telling yourself you want to do. That's the first step. But before we get into the rest of the tips with that, I wanted to thank our loyal listeners. We've had a lot of great reviews, a lot of people sharing. So I want to think all those that have hopped on and shared the podcast.Speaker 2 (02:33):So wanted to just give those people a shout out and pull up a couple of reviews that people have been leaving lately. So we got to Ruff Munios. He says Taylor does an exceptional job of bringing in people that are experienced and high-performers to help elevate others. Someone looking into solar, like myself, listening and studying these interviews brings me confidence on the jump. Thank you. Thank you, Rafael. I assume you haven't made the jump over to solar yet, so hopefully you do it soon. Um, we got, uh, uh, I'm not going to try to say this, uh, username. You're cute. Okay. I'll try to say it. CUPE we're you WQ, uh, letters on there, but he says, I like how Taylor is constantly working to help the door to door space. I love how freely he gives out pro tips and shares his years of experience.Speaker 2 (03:32):Great interviews with top guests. Love it. And then he gives me five fire emojis. You just made my day QP we're you WQ thank you so much. And let's do one more for fun. We got a T pep says podcasts helped me out a lot here in Pennsylvania.
