This is day 32 of trying to sell a pen to the hardest person ever. You already know who I'm gonna say. The man, the myth, the legend. The one and only Jordan Belfort. I took some time off calling him, so let's see what we can get today. Jordan here. You got 30 seconds. Jordan, give me 20 seconds of your time and I'm going to make you 10 times richer. I just closed a deal worth more than your annual salary. What makes this worth my time? Jordan, that doesn't matter, but I do have to ask you, what do you use everyday to sign your contracts? I use a Mont Blanc. Why? Okay, and what about that Mont Blanc do you like? It's a pen. It writes. What's your point? Okay, well, what do you like about how it writes? Do you like just having it because every salesperson has a Mont Blanc, or do you just like the feel of it? Look, I don't care about the feel. It's a tool. It gets the job done, and frankly, I'm losing patience. Okay, well, how often do you lose your Mont Blanc? Jordan? I'm here. I just don't appreciate being asked about my office supplies. Now, are you going to get to the point or what? Yeah, I'm just wondering, do you ever lose your Mont Blancs? Sometimes, but I'm too busy making real money to worry about a pen. Okay, and that costs you a lot of time looking for it, right? I can only assume that's an annoyance. No? It's a nuisance, sure, but I don't dwell on it. Time is money and I'm not wasting either on a pen. What are you selling? A pen finder? Well, I'm selling a Bluetooth tracked pen. You can find it anywhere. Let's say you lose it somewhere in your office, you're trying to get that deal signed super quickly, like you said, time is money. You can instantly ping it and then find it. You're selling a pen with a tracker? That's your big pitch? I am, but I mean, all the top sales people use it. You're the last one I've called on my list. Um, all them seem to love it. Helps save them a lot of time. And obviously time is very important to you. You just hung up on me. Let's see what we got today. 57 out of 100. Okay, not terrible. Let's see where I need work. Dismissing his achievement. All right, I'll work on that next time.
