He's a rapper.

The documentary was about some completely looney doctor who said he cured aids with just something like herbs and being vegan.


The link seems to be just a random Twitter conspiracy, I don't know what else could link the 2.

The dude apparently has done a lot of good, positive stuff lately. But he was also a member of one of the largest chapters of the Crips gang, so I'd guess it's more likely connected to that or just some random beef he had with someone or some group of dudes.

Tomorrow I have a demo at one of the largest furniture stores in America. They have 71 box trucks that they want cleaned twice a month, possibly more if I can sell them on it. They currently have a guy that does it now and does a good job but the paperwork is the issue with him. Guy charges for the same truck twice on the same trip. The paperwork is probably the easiest part of this job for me, I like to be very detailed.

The one downside with this account is they don’t have access to water so I have to bring it. Told him I would normally charge $75 to haul my own water but I cannot with this one as they would not pay for it. But this is just a step to a larger fleet account so I am thinking I should just suck it up on this one to secure the next.

They are only paying $15 per box truck, not having to be brushed just soaped and rinsed is all they want. Thinking of trying to talk them into doing it weekly for $12.50 instead of twice a month. This would increase annual revenue from ~$28K to ~$45K. If I can only get $10 per truck weekly that would be ~$36K, but I don't think I'd do it for under 12.50.

only tip you need to know to make your life easy ... be a problem solver not a problem identifier. you don't need to ever 'sell' anyone. you need to be truthful and solve problems. people who 'sell' aren't valuable and are basically conning people at end of the day. the selling is already done, you have the interview... the job now is to explain how you fix their issue

explain what service you're going to provide even if it seems overly obvious, how you're going to fix their current problem and the pay structure you think is appropriate. then shut up. if you're solving their problem and not creating a new one (too expensive, not doing it often enough, whatever) they'll agree to the terms even if its slightly more than they wanted.

you are offering a service and have value, don't minimize yourself unless you feel someone else can do the same thing better and cheaper. if thats the case your perceived mkt value is probably inflated and you need to offer more service to make up for it. its nearly impossible to find reliable, competent, hard working people who make people feel comfortable that their problem will be fixed. be that guy and you'll get the paid the way you want it and try not to get caught up in details like an extra .50 or dollar per truck or whatever the situation is. you're on the same team as the company trying to solve problems

Really good advice Dave. Applies to just about everything.

excellent advice! Thanks Dave. You should make your rounds and talk to HS kids giving this kind of advice

Just like I told all my soldiers, don't skimp out on shoes. You are on your feet all day, treat them right and your body will thank you. And I would say, 8 years is a long ass time between shoes. Probably should get a new pair once a year, if not more if you are putting miles on them
