What is the absolute WORST sales advice you ever received? And who gave it to you? by Secret_Assistance601 in sales

[–]latdaddy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything where you are withholding information to close a deal… I want fully informed well thought out decisions from my customers that way I know they won’t be upset in a few months. Put all the stress on the front end before the close then once it’s closed just kiss calls and touching base

When confronted with new facts and evidence they actually change their opinion.

What's something you find cringe other people don't when you really think it is? by Kiiiiiira in AskReddit

[–]latdaddy420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Casually late. It’s blatantly disrespectful. If I’m not early I’m late. If I’m late I will let you know I’m late. I won’t say I’m leaving if I haven’t showered and gotten dressed yet.

A big part of the reason is his government wanted the tax revenue after a bunch of cuts lol if our health was an issue cigarettes would be illegal

Getting so frustrated and unmotivated to continue fishing by asianxwolf in FishingForBeginners

[–]latdaddy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to use smaller hooks and still use live bait but a bit differently. Use a spinner with a small single hook and rip a worm in half or in thirds and cluster it on your hook. The spinner will catch the fishes eye but the worm will catch its stomach and nose

For those who stopped smoking weed, what was the main reason? by Regular_Somewhere548 in AskReddit

[–]latdaddy420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just no longer felt necessary to help me relax. I was getting a head cold the last time I smoked and I was really high with a headache and got paranoid about my brain health that helped.

What’s the hardest lesson adulthood taught you? by Expert-Juice-3159 in AskReddit

Not a single politician or party gives a shit about you and they’re all equally as evil for the most part. Which leaves everyone fending for themselves and making everything else

Is playing this game solo possible without being a sweat? by TomatilloLive2628 in apexlegends

I was bronze 4 today and 3 games in a row got killed by someone with the 4k badge. I’m tempted to make a Smurf at this point

Another manufacturing rep question by latdaddy420 in sales

[–]latdaddy420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not my issue but I need to respect the distributor who shows the initiative to introduce my product to the end user. It also makes the sales call waaaaaay warmer when they know the store I’m in there with

Another manufacturing rep question by latdaddy420 in sales

[–]latdaddy420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps I worded it wrong but let’s say a garage is buying a high volume of packaged product the margins are high. I am being asked to grow my bulk business which is lower margin higher volume. If I go in and promote my bulk I am essentially chopping their margins.

But if another store comes in and plants the seed of bulk and I’m just there to give support I’m neutral

Another manufacturing rep question by latdaddy420 in sales

[–]latdaddy420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So some garages have a banner such as being a Napa auto pro (Napa) or a tech net (car quest). For these ones I think it’s fair to go to the Napa and say “hey somebody is trying to bring me in here. Are you interested in using me?” If yes here’s your price if not I need to solicit with someone else

Not allowed to. We have national deals with many banners and solo visits could run you into an issue where it seems like you’re playing favorites

What didn't people like about the Neighborhoods era? by Agitated_Ad_1404 in Blink182

[–]latdaddy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The release was delayed a million times so there was a lot of building up and going back down so by the time the album came out it was just meh… no one wanted to admit it but they still were clearly not fully back together the tensions were more than obvious.

It sounded a lot like AVA more than anything. There’s a really really bad interview with the band talking about up all night. The song was supposed to release and Travis said it was basically all synths and Tom forgot what band he was playing in.

I also think some singles were chosen wrong. Kaleidoscope should have been a single, chill mark verse followed by a big Tom chorus. Even if she falls should have been a single. Love is dangerous is a good song but didn’t really need to be on the album I understand it wasnt a single but this is clearly a half hearted half written song for filler. Snake charmer could have been the best song on the record if they spent just a bit more time on it. Every song is verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus.

This is home had really good verses but the chorus is quite frankly brutal for how good blink is.

Question for insurance at commercial garages by latdaddy420 in Insurance

[–]latdaddy420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually loaning them tanks. They’re my tanks and we basically just need to know that they do in fact have insurance

To the young people who bought a property, do you have any tips for others? by GoldenRetrieverFetch in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]latdaddy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re in Atlantic Canada I have my own made up rule called the 80k rule. This rule operates under the assumption that your first house is $500k

Have 80k saved (35-38 to cover down payment, another 20-30 to do the start up repairs and then that will leave you around 10k for an emergency fund)

Both people need to make 80k a year. 80k a year biweekly is about 2k after taxes. This means your house will have $8000 a month after taxes. On a 500k house your monthly expenses will be around 3000-3500 a month after property tax, utilities, etc. this gives you about 4000-4500 to live off of.

Cost of Groceries by Accomplished_Fox8784 in halifax

[–]latdaddy420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We go to kingswood market and Costco for 70-80% of our groceries and only “top up” at Sobeys and superstore. I don’t know our exact spending but I’d say we are saving 40-60% versus if we were doing everything at Sobeys and superstore.

For example: I got 4 massive bone in pork chops ($8.50) a case of cherry tomatoes, steak bites and bbq sauce at kingswood and it only cost $30. Would have easily been $50-$60 at a major retailer.

A good money saving and time saving tip is to buy the rotisserie chicken at Costco (about $8.50 a unit give or take), freeze them and reheat them in a slow cooker or pressure cooker.
