Six months from now, you're still stuck in the same cycle, still chasing, still patching the hole, still wondering why everyone around you is winning while you're running in place. Pause. Now you imagine. Imagine something different. What happens if your pipeline is clean, your team is aligned, you're finally scaling without the chaos? That's not a dream. That's what happens when you move.

And if they don't respond, let them sit in it. Sometimes silence, as hard as it is, It is the close in itself. So let me give you a real story about this. I had a client. Brilliant. I mean, a brilliant offer. Great results. But they refused to invest in their back-end systems. They said it wasn't the right, they always used to say it wasn't the right time.

Fast forward six months, they started to get burnout. They got behind. They got frustrated. They came back and they said, well, Kayvon, we should have done this when we first spoke. And to their credit, they did get on board. But three months later, they had their biggest quarter ever. But you know what they told me? It wasn't the pitch that convinced me.

It was when you made me see not changing what it's costing me. So they said it wasn't the pitch. It was when I allowed them to see the cost of not changing. What's it costing them? Boom, the sale happened there, not actually in the pitch. And that's what you want to be.

You want to be that kind of salesperson, the one who wakes people up, not one to pressure them into sleepwalking through another decision. Not fixing this now is like ignoring a leak in your house. Sure, you're saving money until a ceiling collapse. You can use things like analogies. Or you can use analogies like this. This isn't just a business decision.

This is about who you want to be as a leader. You feel that? That's how you move people. And when you say that with empathy, when you say that because you actually care, you're actually present, it means something. But if you're just using these one-liners I'm giving you and these analogies I'm giving you because Kayvon told you on a podcast to do it, it won't work.

And this is why I always go back to the beginning. Sales is a direct reflection of you. What are your intentions? Are you about the commission or are you about the mission?

So there's a moment in every sales call, what I call is like the shift.
