In this episode, I sat down with Luke Farr, a great friend of mine who’s had a 10 year career in sales across media, real estate, and technology surpassing 20 Million in sales revenue. Luke has a firm belief that the key to sustainable success is the fundamental aspect of building sound relationships. He believes that the strength of a person’s emotional intelligence determines the strength of their relationships and thus their outcomes. Luke has an amazing ability to build authentic relationships with a wide variety of personalities which enables him to understand them and their businesses, and hence provide them with the best solutions to generate their desired results. 


Luke will share some of his expertise on how you as a business owner can hedge your business from the effects of the current pandemic so that when things get normal you can effortlessly revert to business as usual. Businesses are currently facing a lot of challenges especially with cash flow and he will highlight the critical importance of taking time to build valuable and meaningful relationships with customers. One great way of achieving that is by doing weekly check-in calls just to see how a customer is doing without selling them anything. That will ensure long term and genuine customer loyalty which will benefit your business immensely in the long run. You won’t wanna miss this episode as we dive deeper into the art of sales and relationship building, so stay tuned, take notes, and enjoy!
