Bennet is the founder and engine behind the exploding cookie chain Dirty dough selling 100s of franchises in the first 18 months! An elite entrepreneur and sales leader, tons of insights here!
In this episode we dive into the foundational skills and mindsets that Bennet acquired to be able to step into true entrepreneurship and launch this successful venture.
Bennet goes deep on how he used 4 different sales jobs to gather the experiences necessary to build to his current role. We talk about the process of taking opportunities to learn not earn. This principle was the guiding mark for him as he pivoted in each role. He teaches how most learning is front loaded into the first 6 months of most new jobs. The catch to learn a ton is to be willing to forsake possible earning increases in the same role.
We also get into his mindset on betting on himself and committing first and then putting the pieces together. Bennet used this mentality to find success at every opportunity he took on eventually leading him to be confident and competent to go take on the cookie giants and launch Dirty Dough.
