They're paying people to deal to you. and There's a whole infrastructure and cost involved with doing that. So it's really good to think about that.

Studying reads and studying a what people are doing betting patterns and so. I think it's a great infants. Not the final clear state. it's great onramp. Just being in the industry and doing something being arousal and they love yes. Funny you mentioned that about players and dealers being good players. And i remember when i was dealing and i was. It wasn't even intentional. But it felt like i knew what everybody had plot me. What it taught was what for and for your guys for your audience. What i learned the lesson from that was hey attention if you're a player and you're not paying attention you're missing tons of information because dealers have to pay attention. We don't have a choice. We're dealing raise the cards. And i'm dealing my cards and i'm running my game. I don't get to watch the tv released from a good dealer. I don't get to watch tv. Or i don't get to talk to the waitress. So i don't get to look at my phone or i don't get to talk to the guy next to me about the football game or you know any of that. I've got to run the game.

"I should have my friends over this or play. Blackjack so do you guys. As part of the business. I assume with players cars and that sort of thing. Are you able to track some of that. I mean more than anecdotally where you're saying. I noticed that you know some tournament. Cash or cash games. Are you able to kind of track. That and see what kind of value players bring to the casino at large Beyond the tournaments. I actually as a matter of fact. One of the things i do is part of my behind. The scenes role is. I will take because tournament players. I have require required to use a player card deployment so and typically if you've got a player card what we've experiences that you'll use it in a live game in order to get your cops because we comp live players back some money whether it's pitcher poker they'll get some sort of back Whether it's you know you can call it rape back. Harvey wanna term it. But it's some sort of conflict goes back so most of the time they use their card. So one of the things i do is i actually will take all of my tournament entrance and then measure the amount of cash game. Play that they will play in that particular day so say for example for you steve. You played the friday morning tournament lot. That hundred dollars tournament we had You know prior to the to shut. Shutdown was a real popular tournament for we coming real retirement forest so in theory. What i would do is after that tournament's done the next week i would take every play tournament and i would run those numbers against I have a report that can show me. How much cash game play. They played every one of those players in our facility. And then i can show it to the people that matter to me. My superiors have to an them. Hey i'm getting this many hours in cash game play out of my tournament players and it's a fantastic way to correlate value to having a tournament in the building And i'll i'll i'll share with you one of the big revelations with the free role so you think of a free role and you think well how these guys get away with dumping six or seven main event seats into a freer every week and making this work and all the dealers early for two hundred three hundred people right. I mean so i've got. I've got twelve to fifteen dealers in on monday night when i don't need them. Normally i've got a tournament director and the places pell-mell for for two hours straight or three hours you know tables breaking constantly because it's a real tight structure in. It's just nuts.

Daily Sales Tips
How I Cold Emailed My Way Onto 27 of the Top Sales Podcasts
"One of the big challenges we have sales people is really building social proof in utilizing correctly to either get a meeting with an important prospect or to close a deal in a lot of US including ourselves up until very recently because we've made a big push to get podcast and really increase increase social proof are in a position where maybe very few people in your industry no of you so into reaching out to a prospect that may have never heard of you before they may have heard of your company but they're not quite sure who you you are and hopping sales call with a prospect especially as it can be. Kinda tough if they've never heard of you prior to you sending a cold email to them Andy Mandarin. We're GONNA have any relevant case studies for their industry. One of the ways that we overcame this challenge was for prospecting was making a really big push to hop on on more podcasts specifically sales to podcasts and if you're wondering we'll hate jason run a business. How is this going to help me sales people you can hop on podcasts as well-made. Scott's podcast podcast where he interviews top one percent sales people is a really good example of that and if you're in sales getting on a podcast of being able to share that interview especially really if you're talking about something maybe not sales related and more about something in your industry can really bring in some credible industry expertise as well and it's a really great wave for prospects to learn about you that are proactive about finding solutions to the problems but also as something that you can share in a follow up after a sales call so that they can listen to you it again. It's social proof the here you WANNA platform so it's a really good way to offer extra value and get in front of people that may or may not have heard view before so let we tell you a quick story because we've read a big Lincoln Post on this. That's linked in the show notes. I definitely recommend you check out but we were able to get on twenty seven of the top sales podcast in in the last eight months and I got on all of these including Scott's for this this opportunity just through through emails so the big thing that we did when we got started and where where you want to start with this. Is You want some social proof to get on the PODCASTS. I'm GonNa talk a lot about social proof. In this episode. You want to get a couple podcasts under your belt so so that you have something to share when you reach out to these other ones so the way we started is I just asked around on our network and I knew a couple of podcasters and I said Hey can we hop up on your podcast and I'd like to talk about something. I think it'd be really valuable for your audience and I had a friend Bras and another friend list in they helped me get on their podcasts and I could been linked to those in other emails when reaching out to other ones so this is what really helped to get that initial social proof to share with bigger podcasts like you know seller dive on recently with Jeffrey Dahmer make. It Happen Mondays with John Barrows and a few other those if I didn't have social proof I wouldn't have been able to get on so step number one build that initial social proof get on some podcast uncast again. Check out that Lincoln Post. It's a really in depth guide to not only how we did it but how you can also do it as well. Step number. Two is finding podcasts so again. Scott has actually put together an awesome list on the site detailing enlisting on all the top sales podcasts. That's a great place to start and where and we'd take it. A step further other is going in and qualifying some of these. You're going to build an countless different than if you're prospecting for any other type of solution or offering is you're. GonNa come up with an account list of podcasts and you're gonNA come with qualifiers so what I recommend doing what we did was they had to have at least ten reviews on itunes a four star rating and they had to have released an episode within the last thirty days what I found out doing a lot of the sound reaches that a lot of people don't have active audiences because they don't post content consistently gently enough and if they don't have a lot of reviews that's usually an indication. There's not a lot of engagement on there. There's nothing wrong with getting on those podcasts to get started but I wouldn't make that it'd be part of your strategy. The next thing you're going to do is find the contact information and
