High performance mindset, sales psychology, and business growth all come down to one thing most people miss: how the other person feels in the first few minutes. If you are pushing too early, sounding too rehearsed, or trying to force the outcome, you are probably creating resistance before the real conversation even starts.
In this episode, Jeremy Miner sits down with Grant Mitt, a young founder who built and scaled a solar sales company after starting in direct sales and adapting fast during Covid. Grant breaks down why top performers do not pitch too early, how tone changes trust, and why perception, certainty, and timing matter more than most people realize. This episode is for ambitious people who want to sell better, lead better, and scale faster without sounding like everybody else.
