Why vague pitches don’t land gigs
Let me share with y’all what I’ve seen out there right now….This is exactly why vague posts are not landing roles right now. I was in a Facebook group this week and saw a closer looking for placements. 13 years of 100% commission sales experience. 7 years in virtual high-ticket selling. Solid background on the surface. But here is what was completely missing from that entire post: Total revenue closed. Conversion rate. Average deal size. Any proof of niche alignment with the spaces they were targeting. Zero. And I see this constantly. Closers with real experience who cannot communicate their business impact in a way that makes a coach or offer owner stop scrolling and say “I need to talk to this person right now.” Here is what you have to understand. When a coach is hiring a closer, they are not hiring years of experience. They are hiring outcomes. They want to know how much money you have generated for someone else’s business, what percentage of your calls turn into closed deals, what the average ticket price was, and how quickly you ramp and start producing. If your intro post, your DM pitch, or your application cannot answer those questions, you are invisible. Not because you are not qualified. Because you have not translated your experience into language that speaks directly to what a business owner actually needs to hear. This is exactly what the Niche and Positioning Workbook inside The Sales Forge is built for. It walks you through getting clear on who you are, what you have actually produced, what niche you are the best fit for, and how to say all of it in a way that makes someone lean in instead of scroll past. Not “I have 13 years of experience.” But “I have closed over $2M in the last three years with a 38% conversion rate on high-ticket offers between $5K and $15K, primarily in the health and wellness coaching space.” That is a completely different post. That is a post that gets responses and lands roles. If you have not completed the Niche and Positioning Workbook yet, go do it now! It is inside the classroom under resources! Then post your positioning statement here so we can sharpen it together. Let me help you!

Why vague pitches don’t land gigs
Your Network is More POWERFUL than a RESUME
Let's talk about how important it is to CONNECT and NETWORK.... That is how this game actually works in remote sales.... Most top business owners (the ones with the GREAT leads and will give you AMAZING commission) do not have time to scroll through applications!!!! They call someone they trust and ask one thing (or they hit up their existing connections) If you are not in their DMs or connected to them, you do not exist to them. Here is what nobody told you: the job application process you were taught was built for a 9 to 5 world. A local job market. A world where your zip code decided your options. Remote sales is a completely different game. The people landing the best roles right now are not always the most experienced. SAY WHAT??! They are the most connected. The most trained. The most positioned. That gap right there? That is exactly why The Sales Forge exists and WHY I built this. Who you know and who knows YOU matters more than any resume. So let me ask you something: Are you building those relationships right now? Drop a comment below. Tell me where you are in your remote sales journey and let's start making some connections in here. This community is one of your most powerful tools if you use it and I plan on making this one of the BEST in remote sales! LET'S GO!

Today's Training: Your Unique Positioning and Niche
Hey there my LOVELY AND SUCCESSFUL People! Today's training is going to focus in on your unique positioning and niche. BECAUSE this is critical to building your remote sales foundation BEFORE you are reaching out to clients. I will be breaking it all down and we will be following this workbook (see the link below). I will also add it to the resources section inside the Classroom and this Zoom will be recorded if you can't make it (all zoom recordings are located in the classroom section). COME ready to dive in. I will be presenting it all to you and leaving time for Q&A at the end, however, you can always save your questions for my live Q&A that I personally host every Thursday! Zoom link to join (TODAY @ 12PM CST) Workbook Link (MAKE A COPY!)
