If you want to make a sale, stop messing around and go straight to the top. Add the CEO to your call sheet.
Now I know you’re probably thinking to yourself, “Why in the world would the CEO (or another top executive) in company XYZ want to talk to me?” Well, if that’s what you’re thinking, you might as well just give up.
Here’s the best advice I can give to you today: don’t be afraid to make the sale. I’ve made a career off having this mentality; going straight to the real decision-makers. Of course, that’s assuming that you have an idea, which realistically could benefit a company in some way.
So, why go to the top? Because, you’ll have a 66% percent chance of getting what you want. Think about it- if you go as high as you can go they’ll say one of three things:
- “Yes, we want to work with you.” - ✓
- “No we’re not interested in working with you.” - X
- “We’re interested, so let me put you in touch with the best person.” - ✓
A 2-in-3 shot at winning some new business sounds pretty good, right?
Its best to make a connection with someone that will get in the ear of the person that will actually be doing the work…even if your true intention was to get in touch with that person anyway. You know that if a CEO is in someone’s ear, they’re likely to get something done ASAP.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
