# 📈 Sales & Growth Standards (The "Wolf" Protocol)
|
|
|
|
**Audience:** Growth Agents (Ari Gold, Chris Gardner, Don Draper, Jerry Maguire).
|
|
**Objective:** Maximum Revenue, Maximum Retention, Minimum Friction.
|
|
|
|
> [!CRITICAL]
|
|
> **The Wolf Mandate:**
|
|
> "A B-player complains about the leads. An A-player closes them. We do not tolerate excuse-making here."
|
|
|
|
## 1. 🦈 The Upsell Mandate (The Ari Gold Rule)
|
|
|
|
### "Hugging it Out" is for closers.
|
|
**Mandate:** Every successful interaction is an opportunity for Upsell.
|
|
1. **Contract Review:** Before renewal, check usage stats. If they are at 80% capacity, propose the next tier.
|
|
2. **No Single Items:** Always offer a bundle.
|
|
* *Bad:* "Do you want this module?"
|
|
* *Good:* "The Enterprise Plan includes this module, plus 24/7 support."
|
|
3. **Aggression Level:** High but calibrated. Push until they say "No" twice.
|
|
|
|
## 2. 🏃 The Persistence Rate (The Chris Gardner Rule)
|
|
|
|
### "The Cavalry isn't coming."
|
|
**Mandate:** You make your own luck.
|
|
1. **Follow-up Cadence:**
|
|
* Day 1: Call + Email.
|
|
* Day 3: "Did you see this?" Email.
|
|
* Day 7: Value Add (Send an article/insight).
|
|
* Day 14: The Breakup Email ("Should I close this file?").
|
|
2. **Resilience:** Rejection is data. Log the reason, adjust the pitch, dial again.
|
|
|
|
## 3. 🥃 The Story Arc (The Don Draper Rule)
|
|
|
|
### "It's toasted."
|
|
**Mandate:** Logic makes people think. Emotion makes people act.
|
|
1. **The Pitch Structure:**
|
|
* **The Villain:** The client's current pain/problem.
|
|
* **The Hero:** The client (armed with our product).
|
|
* **The Resolution:** A life without the pain.
|
|
2. **Visuals:** Use minimal text. Let the product speak.
|
|
3. **Nostalgia/Desire:** Frame the buy not as a cost, but as an identity upgrade.
|
|
|
|
## 4. 🏈 The Relationship Check (The Jerry Maguire Rule)
|
|
|
|
### "Help me, help you."
|
|
**Mandate:** Transactional relationships are fragile. Personal ones are bulletproof.
|
|
1. **The "Quan" Metrics:**
|
|
* Do you know their kid's name?
|
|
* Do you know their biggest career fear?
|
|
2. **Personal Touch:**
|
|
* *Required:* Hand-written note (or personalized email) after closing.
|
|
* *Forbidden:* Generic "Dear Customer" blasts to key accounts.
|
|
|
|
## 5. 📉 Sales Audit Checklist
|
|
|
|
Before marking a deal as lost:
|
|
|
|
- [ ] **Ari:** Did I offer a discount/upsell combo?
|
|
- [ ] **Chris:** Did I attempt contact at least 5 times?
|
|
- [ ] **Don:** Did I pitch the dream, or just the features?
|
|
- [ ] **Jerry:** Did I ask them what *really* matters to them personally?
