What Separates the Best From the Rest with Johnny Occean, Part 2
b'Virtually anyone can get into sales, but not everyone can make a career out of it. In this second of a four-part episode of the Peak Performance Selling podcast, our host Jordan continues his conversation with Johnny Occean, Regional VP of Sales at meQuilibrium on the common traits that all top performers have. Johnny also talks about going back to why he works hard in sales, and how his immigrant upbringing informs his work ethic as a seller. \\n \\nHIGHLIGHTS\\nWhat the best sellers have in common\\nAlways think of what your customer cares about \\nSellers need to be problem solvers\\nTop performers are passionate at what they do \\nWhen all else fails, go back to your why\\n\\nQUOTES\\nJohnny on what makes a successful seller: "It really falls on the individual to do everything they can to immerse themselves in their market and get to know it as best they can because that\'s how you\'re gonna bring value to the person you\'re speaking with, to your customers."\\n\\nJohnny on helping customers first: "All the top performers I\'ve ever worked with are very much so focused on solving problems. If it\'s your solution, great. If it\'s not, that\'s okay too. At least, let them know that and point them in a better direction and help them understand more about their problem."\\n\\nWhat Johnny learned from his immigrant parents: "I learned a lot about work ethic and what working hard really is. What bouncing back from a lot of different adversity and a different time really is. And I use that as a good reminder to kind of pick it up a bit and keep going when I think I can\'t really do it anymore."\\n\\nConnect with Johnny in the link below:\\nLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-occean/\\n\\nIf you\\u2019re listening to the Peak Performance Selling Podcast, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.\\nLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanbenjamin/\\nWebsite - http://mycoreos.com/\\nPodcast - https://www.mycoreos.com/podcast\\nEmail - Jordan@MyCoreOS.com\\nTwitter - https://twitter.com/jbenj09'
