Why does logic barely moves the needle in a boardroom?

We’ve all done it. Spend hours building a killer deck: charts, bulletproof stats, case studies stacked a mile high. You walk in ready to annihilate objections. You present the numbers, the proof, the so-called “𝘀𝗹𝗮𝗺-𝗱𝘂𝗻𝗸.”

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻... 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀.

Here’s the hard truth: facts alone rarely close the deal. Most decisions? They’re not driven by spreadsheets. They’re driven by gut.

People don’t want to be sold another bullet point. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺.

I was in a pitch last year for a major energy client. Big players at the table. I came armed with ROI stats, industry benchmarks, a step-by-step case study from a similar project. But the energy in the room was flat. 𝗡𝗼 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸.

So, I dropped the deck and told a story instead. How another client in their shoes botched a workwear rollout, what it really cost them, and how we bailed them out. No sugarcoating, just the messy truth. Suddenly, the whole mood shifted. 𝘗𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯. 𝘘𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵.

That’s when deals start to move. When you stop pitching and start relating.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀? They aren’t shiny. They’re raw. They show where things went sideways, what it actually took to fix the mess, and why most “one-size-fits-all” solutions never really fit.


So next time you’re prepping for a big meeting, ask yourself:

Are you just stacking up logic, hoping to win the pitch with facts? 𝘖𝘳 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭, 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘰𝘧𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘩, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯?

Because in the end, people trust people. They buy from the folks who get their world, not just the ones with the cleanest PowerPoint.

Want to stand out? 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁. Start with a story that actually fits their shoes.

How often do you see logic win the room? Or is it always the story that sticks?

I was digging through an old box last weekend and found photos from my very first real job out of college, Front and Back of House Manager at Pappadeaux’s Seafood Kitchen 

I started snapping away. My husband looked at me strangely. 

I told him, "Oh, this will make a great LinkedIn post."

He gave me that look half amused, half confused. "A LinkedIn post, huh?"

And honestly, I had to laugh at myself. 

Because now, just about any random moment or throwback turns into "content."

Spilled sauce on myself during a shift? Suddenly, that’s a post about resilience. 

Figuring out how to schedule breaks for a team of 20 on a Friday night? 

That’s resource management and people skills. 

The time I dropped a tray in front of the regional manager?? That’s a lesson in humility (or maybe just gravity).

I can't help it. The "LinkedIn brain" is always switched on.

These moments actually matter. They’re real. Most people aren’t living highlight-reel lives every single day. 

Sometimes, your best leadership lesson comes from a kitchen mishap, not a corporate boardroom.

So now, when I catch myself turning old memories (even the embarrassing ones) into business content, I just roll with it. 

It’s a way to connect, share the stuff that really happened, and maybe give someone a laugh who needed it.

If you’ve ever seen a minor life event and thought, "This could be a great post," you’re not alone.

To everyone else in "LinkedIn mode," keep sharing the small stuff. 
That’s where the best stories start.

Does anyone else do this, or is it just me?

Pappadeaux’s Seafood Kitchen

Everyone has a favorite buzzword: 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽, 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆. 

But ask a room full of business leaders, "Who here actually loves sales?" and you’ll get a lot of awkward silence.

Funny, right? 

Because sales is the one skill everyone secretly assumes they could do... 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘪𝘵’𝘴 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘶𝘱 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵.

Let’s clear something up:

Sales isn’t about tricking people. 
It’s not smooth-talking or arm-twisting. 
It’s not desperate pitches or the forced smiles you see at networking events.

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘀:
𝘚𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘴, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮.
𝘓𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘬, 𝘴𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴.
𝘉𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵, 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩𝘴, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘴.
𝘏𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘣𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘰𝘭.
𝘍𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘥 𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘯.

It’s knowing the stakes are real because every “no” feels personal and every “yes” means you earned it.

Here’s why I talk about this so much:

𝘞𝘦 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮𝘴. 
𝘞𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺 𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘺, 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦. 
𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘴, 𝘯𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯’𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘭. 𝘐𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴. 

Products don’t get adopted just because they’re great. 
And nobody ever built a standout brand by just waiting for new customers to walk through the door.

I learned this the hard way. 

Coming from a corporate background, I knew a lot about process and planning. 

But when I transitioned into building my own business in custom apparel, reality hit fast: 

𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴.
𝘕𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘯 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘴.
𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘣𝘶𝘺-𝘪𝘯 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘵.

It’s all about sales.

You know those stories about “overnight success?” Look closer. You’ll find years of cold calls, pitch meetings, and rejections behind every “big win.”

𝘚𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘦𝘵. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘦𝘵. 

And it’s the one that separates the companies and careers that stall from the ones that scale.

Who’s the best salesperson you know? What did they teach you about business, or about life?

I have had the pleasure of meeting so many veterans on job sites and in boardrooms across Oil & Gas, Energy, and Construction.

It's not an accident.

These sectors don’t just value hard work, they rely on it. Veterans show up with discipline, adaptability, and leadership baked in.

I've seen firsthand how veterans step into high-pressure roles, manage teams, and keep operations running smoothly. They know how to assess risk, work safely, and jump into any challenge head-on. 

These are the folks who keep projects moving....even when things get tough.

If you lead a team in this industry, or you’re building your company culture, take a look at the veterans around you. They’re probably not asking for special attention, but their impact is real.

We owe a lot to the veterans who keep our businesses strong and our communities moving forward.

Thank you for all you do.

Hot Take! 

If your team only wears your branded apparel at work, you’re missing a huge opportunity. 🎯

I see this play out every weekend at my son’s football games.

There’s this one dad on the sidelines, never in a wrinkled tee or generic fan gear. He’s always in a sharp performance polo. Looks comfortable, fits perfectly, holds up under the Texas sun, and you can see the quality from a distance. The clincher? That unmistakable SLB logo on the sleeve.

He could throw on anything for Saturday morning. He chooses the SLB polo. 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙄 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙨 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙬𝙚𝙖𝙧.

Most companies see uniforms as just another checkbox: order shirts, slap on a logo, hand them out. Box ticked. But when your people only wear your apparel when they have to on a job site, at an event, in the office....you’re missing out on real brand exposure.

Here’s the difference:

Apparel people are proud to wear becomes a marketing machine you can’t buy. 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤. And it’s more believable than any ad campaign.

Think about it. Your employees aren’t just workers; they’re part of your story. If they put on your gear for a family BBQ, a grocery run, or their kid’s soccer game, that’s a win. 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙗𝙪𝙮-𝙞𝙣.

But you don’t get there with scratchy polos, stiff jackets, and ill-fitting caps. You get there by investing in quality. If it’s good enough for the weekend, it’s good enough for work.

That’s how you create walking billboards: 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆, 𝘂𝗻𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱.

Here’s a simple test: if you gave your team branded gear this year, 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘥, 𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴? If the answer is “almost never,” it’s time to rethink.

Stop seeing apparel as a uniform. See it as a brand builder. Make it something people actually want to wear.

Next time you hand out new gear, ask yourself: would I want to wear this on my day off?

If you wouldn’t, neither will your team.

𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮? Start by creating apparel your people love.

That’s when your brand leaves the office and shows up everywhere else.

Boardroom titles don’t mean much when you’re starting over in a new city.

When I moved from Florida to Texas, leaving the field for a role a Sysco’s corporate headquarters, I thought my years of client facing experience would make things easy. 

I showed up in Houston with a resume full of wins, but almost no real connections here. 

The network that opened doors for me back in Florida just didn’t exist in Texas. It was humbling and, honestly, a little uncomfortable.

I realized if I wanted a seat at the table, I’d have to earn it from scratch.

So, I started from square one. 

I went to every industry breakfast I could find, even when I didn’t know anyone. 

I walked trade show floors until my feet hurt, striking up conversations, asking questions, and listening. 

I made real calls instead of hiding behind emails and LinkedIn messages. Some conversations went nowhere, but a few opened up into something more.

Slowly, I began to understand how business gets done in Houston. 

Relationships get built face-to-face. People want to see you show up more than once. 

There’s a real value placed on follow-through and authenticity here.

One meeting led to another, and then another. The “Houston handshake” is a real thing, when people trust you, they’ll go out of their way to make introductions and share opportunities. 

I learned the power of persistence, humility, and staying open to new ways of doing things.

This experience taught me something I carry into my business every single day: You can’t build anything meaningful from behind a desk. 

You’ve got to get out there, meet people where they are, and be willing to start over if that’s what it takes.

The relationships I built in those early months form the foundation of my business today. It wasn’t instant, and it wasn’t always easy, but it was absolutely worth it.

If you’re thinking about making a leap, whether it’s a new industry, a new city, or launching something on your own don’t be afraid to start small. 

Titles come and go, but the way you connect with people is what truly lasts.

Go build those roots. Be visible. Show up, even when you feel like a stranger. 

The best opportunities come to those who aren’t afraid to rebuild, one handshake at a time.

#redmonday

Trafficking isn't just something you see on the news. It's happening all around us, in places you'd never expect.

I've seen enough to know it’s not limited to rundown neighborhoods. It’s showing up in shopping malls, nice subdivisions and airports.

It hides in plain sight.

Truth is, if something feels off, it probably is.
That hunch you get when you see something strange? Trust it.

Too often, people look away because they think, "That can't happen here." But it does. Every day.

We all have a role to play.

If you see something, say something. Report it. Ask questions. Don’t let that uncomfortable feeling just fade away.

Raising our voices and acting on our instincts can change lives.

Let’s not assume "safe places" are always safe.

Trust your gut. And don’t stay silent.

Curious how you can help? DM me or website link in comments.

If you’re not obsessed with your client’s success, you’re missing the whole point.

That’s the lesson I keep coming back to, no matter how much the industry evolves.

Over the years, I’ve seen a lot of companies treat branded workwear and custom apparel like just another line item on an order form. 

Something to be checked off. The right branded gear can completely change how a business shows up in the world.

When a crew shows up in smart, comfortable workwear with the company name front and center, everything is different. 

Employees walk a little taller. Customers remember who you are. People start asking questions at the job site or the grocery store “Who do y’all work for?” “Where’d you get that?” It’s instant recognition.

That’s why I take every project personally. 

I want to make sure the client’s team feels that same sense of pride every time they pull on a jacket or cap with their logo. Because when the team feels good, the work shows it and so do the results.

I’ve worked with brands in oil and gas, energy, and construction who wanted more than just a uniform. 

They wanted an edge, a way to stand out in a crowded market, to win bids, and to keep their name top of mind with every handshake, every site visit, every new connection made in the field.

And trust me, it’s not just about how things look. It’s about safety. It’s about comfort. It’s about sending the message that your business pays attention to the details and that you want your people to feel valued.

There’s nothing better than getting a call after a big project, hearing a client say, “Our team loves the gear. We’ve never looked more professional.” 

That’s what keeps me going. Not the sales numbers or the logos, but knowing I helped someone else win.

That’s my focus every day: helping clients succeed by making their brand impossible to ignore.

If you want to see what your brand can really do, let’s talk. 

You might be surprised by how much difference the right gear makes.

#livideo

Are you putting off ordering branded workwear or promo products because you think it will be a hassle?

You’re not alone.

Most people think the process is complicated.
Endless options. Too many steps. Not enough guidance.

Honestly, ordering custom apparel or branded swag for your team shouldn’t feel like a chore.

Here’s how it looks when you work with us:

Step 1: Reach out: call, email, or just shoot me a message here. 
Step 2: We talk about what you actually need (no forms, no guessing). 
Step 3: I bring ideas, real samples, mockups, whatever helps you see the vision. 
Step 4: Once you’re happy, we nail down the details and lock in the order. 
Step 5: My team makes it happen, quick turnaround, clear updates, no surprises.

That’s it.

No hoops to jump through.
No jargon.
No “waiting for someone to get back to you.”

Just easy, hands-on help from a team that really gets what Houston businesses need.

If you’ve got a project in mind, big or small let’s make it happen.

What usually holds you back from ordering custom gear?

Everyone thinks they know what teamwork looks like.

But nothing will test your definition of "team" like watching a group of 9-13 year-olds keep it together on cheer mat.

Every blind toss, every catch, depends on someone else. You can’t half-commit on a lift and hope nobody notices. 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻, 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝗺𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁.

During my daughter’s showcase performance, something went sideways. 

Missed cue. 𝘖𝘯𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭 𝘸𝘰𝘣𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘥. For a split second, the whole routine could have gone off the rails.

But there was no panic, no blaming, no sighs or side-eye. Another teammate reached over, gave her a hand, and with barely a pause, the group got right back up. 

Maybe a few people saw it, but most probably didn't notice.

𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙞𝙚𝙘𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙘𝙠 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙚. 

In a work setting, how often do we really operate this way? 

Most teams love to say "we’ve got each other’s backs" but when things fall apart, are we looking for someone to blame? 𝘖𝘳 𝘥𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯, 𝘴𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥?

I’ve seen both ends of it. In the energy world, in construction, it’s easy to talk about leadership, execution, results. 

But none of it matters if your team falls apart at the first sign of trouble. The standout teams, the ones I’ll remember are never the ones that get through a quarter mistake-free. 

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆’𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼’𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗴𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀.

Here’s what I want to bring to every team:

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘦, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮 𝘪𝘵.
𝘡𝘦𝘳𝘰 𝘣𝘭𝘢𝘮𝘦. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬.
𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘰 𝘰𝘣𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴.

The best teams aren’t the ones with the perfect performance. They’re the ones who make recovery look effortless, because they never let one person stumble alone.

𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁.

What’s the best part of my job? 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦.

𝙄𝙩’𝙨 𝙨𝙚𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙣.

There’s just something about watching a brand come to life. Every time a Houston company steps onto a job site or walks into an event with new custom workwear, I see the confidence. The energy shifts. 𝗣𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁.

I get to work with all kinds of teams, from oil and gas crews who need tough gear, to energy companies ready to upgrade their look, to builders who want to show their pride. It’s never just about the apparel. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘳.

When I sit down with a new client, my first question is never “What color do you want?” It’s, “𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂?” Because getting that right is how you help a brand stick in someone’s mind.

I’ve seen it over and over, great branding can change everything. The right shirt or jacket can spark conversations, open doors, and make teams feel proud to wear their logo.

Every project is different, but my goal never changes: 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙚. Sometimes it’s about finding the perfect design. Sometimes it’s making a tough deadline happen for an important event. Sometimes it’s just about listening and offering honest advice.

The best feeling? Seeing a client’s face when they hold their new gear for the first time. You can tell it matters. For a lot of people, it’s more than just clothing. It’s their company’s name, their hard work, and their reputation, right there for everyone to see.

That’s what keeps me coming back every day. Helping clients succeed, watching their brands grow, and knowing I played a part in that journey. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘥𝘰, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘺, 𝘐 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨.

Nobody wants to hear this, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴.

It’s not glamorous.
It’s not trending anywhere.
And nobody’s giving you a trophy for it.

Most leaders I meet are waiting on some “aha” moment.
As if inspiration or permission is required before progress starts.

The reality?
Every respected brand you know started with silent effort.
No likes.
No recognition.
Just showing up, doing the dull work, and 𝙧𝙚𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙧𝙠.

I see a lot of people in our space obsessed with finding the magic shortcut.
Glossy pitch decks.
Dream marketing playbooks.
Fancy brand colors, vision boards, buzzword salads.

It all looks great on paper.
But it’s mostly noise.

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘴?
They come from relentless, quiet repetition.
Grinding out the basics when nobody’s paying attention.
Sticking to the plan even when the “plan” feels like nonsense.

My last year wasn’t a highlight reel.
No dramatic pivots.
No viral trick.
𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘆, 𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸.
Every day, I taught, documented, stretched my comfort zone, especially when nothing seemed to click.
There were lots of WTFs and tears.

Revenue grew.
Our team leveled up.
Opportunities multiplied.

None of that happened overnight.
𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙮 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙬𝙚𝙖𝙩.
And a stubborn refusal to stay silent just because my work wasn’t lighting up someone else’s feed.

Skill grows slow.
Progress feels invisible.
Whether you’re building a business or moving up one rung at a time, it’s always the same rule.

𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘶𝘱, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘯𝘰𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘴.

Want the secret?
There isn’t one.
No company reinvented itself by quitting after two months.

All the people you respect?
They did thousands of quiet reps before you noticed.

So if you’re waiting for applause before you get to work, stop.
The world’s too busy to beg you to show up.

If you’re not willing to do the work in silence, someone else will.

𝗪𝗵𝗼’𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆?
Let’s hear your story.

Some mornings start with spilled coffee. ☕

All that real life stuff doesn't disappear, but we know how to set it aside and focus on what matters: 𝙙𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨.

We don't pretend to have perfect work-life balance here. ⚖️

We're parents, spouses, neighbors, and friends first THEN brand builders, problem solvers, and idea people.

Someone's always dealing with a sick kid, a broken AC, or a last-minute school play.

And still, we find ways to get things done for our clients. 

We deliver premium branded workwear and promotional products on tight timelines. 

We find creative solutions when the supply chain gets tricky. 

We step up for each other and for our partners in Oil & Gas, Energy, Construction and beyond.

Sometimes it means swapping shifts or covering for each other on the fly. 

Sometimes it means bringing a kid into the office for an hour or handling client calls from the carpool lane.

How does your team find room for both life and work?

I. Don't. Wanna. 

Happy Monday, friends. Just know I am thinking of you and sending positive vibes for getting back into the swing of things after a long holiday week.

This morning, I was scheduled to lead our workout group at 5:00am. 

Alarm goes off at 4am. ⏰

𝗜 𝗵𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗻𝗼𝗼𝘇𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆. 

Second alarm goes off. ⏰

𝗜 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝘁. 

Third alarm. ⏰

𝘿𝙤 𝙤𝙧 𝙙𝙞𝙚. 

I got up, I went and I am SOOOO glad that I did. 

I can find a dozen reasons to procrastinate or say, "I’ll start strong tomorrow." 

But I’ve learned something about that voice in my head, it gets louder the longer I wait.

Momentum doesn’t just show up. 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙗𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙙 𝙞𝙩. One small action at a time.

So, what do I do? 

I pick the lowest-hanging fruit. 

The task I can knock out in ten minutes, just to break the inertia. 

Maybe it’s shooting off a quick email or checking on an order status. 

Doesn’t matter what it is, the point is to just move.

Once you take that tiny step, something shifts. The resistance starts to fade. The fog lifts a little. And suddenly, the rest of that to-do list looks a bit more manageable.

I see this all the time in my work with clients, too. Teams put off ordering new workwear or updating their promo materials after a holiday, telling themselves it can wait. 

But the companies that push through and take action early are always ahead. Their teams are ready, their brand is front and center, and they get results because they didn’t let that post-holiday drag slow them down.

It’s not about finding motivation. It’s about doing the thing, especially when you don’t want to.

If you’re waiting to feel ready, you’ll be waiting a long time.

So, push yourself. Take that first step, even if it’s small.

You won’t be sorry.

In fact, you’ll probably thank yourself by the end of the day.

How do some companies in oil and gas, energy and construction just seem to have a presence wherever they go? 

It’s not magic, and it’s not luck. ☘️

It’s smart branding, all the way down to their workwear.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻: leaders treating branded apparel as a checkbox, another item on the procurement list. They pick a color, add a logo, and call it a day. But that’s not how you build visibility. That’s not how you build pride.

Your workwear is really your frontline billboard. It tells your story before anyone even shakes your hand. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦?

I always start by asking clients: what are your team’s daily challenges? Are conditions tough, unpredictable, or demanding? If your crew is out there in the elements, your gear needs to work just as hard as they do. That means fabric choices, fit, safety features, and durability all matter and branded details pull it together. 🧵

But go even further. A well-designed uniform can do more than look sharp. It can drive engagement, boost morale, and even help with retention. When employees feel like they’re part of something bigger, they act like it. That’s where a thoughtful approach pays off.

Don’t settle for “just a shirt with a logo.” Ask yourself:

𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀?
𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀?
𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆?

Branded workwear isn’t just about looking good. It’s about owning your reputation, every day, on every job site.

If your team’s gear could talk, what would you want it to say?

𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘵 𝘢 𝘊𝘺𝘣𝘦𝘳 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮.

Not because they’re trapped in stiff uniforms or forced to match head to toe. 

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘁𝗹𝗲.

In a gaming startup, comfort rules. 

Hoodies, favorite sneakers, jeans, they all have a place. 

But here’s what’s different: 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 

Team colors show up on caps or shirt sleeves. 

There’s a logo on a hoodie that sparks conversation at the coffee shop. 

𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚’𝙨 𝙬𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚? Yep, branded too.

It’s never about enforcing a dress code. 

It’s about building something together, even through the clothes people choose to wear.

The best branded workwear for creative or tech teams isn’t about being uniform, it’s about belonging. 

𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿? 

Give them gear they’ll actually want to wear. 

Make it comfortable, make it useful, and make it save people a few decisions in the morning.

That’s how brand visibility happens long after the onboarding session ends.

When a team is proud of what they’re building, they show it even before people know what the company does. 

𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝗿𝘂𝗻, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗼𝘂𝘁, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱.

And the best part? It never feels forced.

People ask questions because they notice the cool hoodie or the unique patch. 

Conversations start, about culture, about values, about why someone sticks around at a place like Cyber Works.

That’s real brand engagement.

Too many companies overlook the big impact of small touches. 

𝙄𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙫𝙞𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙞𝙣 𝙖 𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙬𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙠𝙚𝙩, 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙥 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙜𝙤 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚. 

Give people a reason to want to wear your brand.

Comfort and intention. That’s the difference between a shirt that ends up in the back of the closet and one your team lives in.

Even the most laid-back teams know: 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿.

Branded workwear isn't just swag; it's a silent sales tool that can win business when you least expect it.

Let me tell you what happens when you hand out custom gear that actually looks sharp and feels good to wear.

The energy changes.

You see your folks standing a little taller, feeling more like a team, and suddenly, every job site, networking event, and coffee run turns into a walking billboard for your business.

I’ve watched it happen first-hand, more times than I can count. 
A crew shows up in clean, well-designed apparel, clients notice. 
A project manager grabs lunch in a branded jacket, someone sparks up a conversation, and the next thing you know, there’s a new lead.

It’s not luck. It’s strategy.

Branded workwear does three things no marketing brochure ever could:
It gives your team pride and ownership. 
It puts your values on display, even in places you’d never think about. 
It’s a subtle icebreaker that leads to real business, not just polite chit-chat.

If you want your culture to show on the outside, start with what your team puts on every morning.

Stop treating apparel as an afterthought. 
Make it a part of your toolkit for building trust and driving results. 
It’s about more than looking good. 
It’s about empowering your team and letting the world see what you stand for.

Are you still handing out random polos and hoping people wear them? 
Or are you using every thread as a chance to connect, engage, and win?

What’s been your best (or worst) experience with branded workwear?

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗱𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁?

Here's what I've seen again and again:

A one-size-fits-all uniform just doesn't work for people who think outside the box. 

𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘶𝘱 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘦𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳. 

There's a middle ground: flexible, professional workwear that actually speaks to the team.

When you give creative folks apparel that's comfortable, fits real bodies, and still carries your brand, you unlock something important.

First, comfort is a productivity tool. 

When people aren't distracted by stiff collars or awkward fabrics, they can focus on the work, and the ideas flow better. 

That freedom to move, to breathe, to show up as yourself? 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲.

Second, there's a big sense of belonging that comes with branded workwear. 

Even on those hectic days when half your team is remote and the other half is in the office, tossing on that branded hoodie or custom tee is a quick reminder that everyone's rowing in the same direction. 

𝗜𝘁 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. 

Sometimes it even inspires people to share team moments and company wins on social, 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘵.

Third, think about the external message.

Whether it's a pitch meeting, a brainstorm session, or a community event, your team is always representing your brand. 

Comfortable, sharp-looking apparel sends a message before you ever say a word: we're creative, but we're here to get results. 

Clients and partners notice. It elevates your brand reputation without feeling forced.

I've watched teams transform when their workwear changed. People start wearing it even outside of work. They feel more connected—not just to each other, but to what the company stands for.

The details matter, too. 

High-quality fabrics, thoughtful design, and logos that aren't an afterthought, those pieces become favorites, not just uniforms. 

They last longer, they get noticed more, and they show that you care about the team's experience.

So, if your creative crew is still picking between "uncomfortable" and "unprofessional," maybe it's time to rethink the uniform.

Flexible. Branded. Professional. 

It's a simple switch, but it pays off across the board in morale, engagement, and the story your brand tells.

What do you think? 

Have you seen a shift in team performance just by changing what people wear?

"Sales cures all." Mark Cuban said it, and he’s spot on.

Struggling with cash flow? 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀.
No budget for marketing? 𝘚𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴.
Wish you could hire faster? 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝘁, 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀.

People overcomplicate this every day. They chase perfect logos and fancy tools, but if you can sell, everything else gets easier. If you can’t, nothing else matters.

Most of what I have, my network, my business, even some of the best relationships in my life comes from learning to sell. I don’t mean the pushy, used-car pitch. I’m talking about 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨, asking the right questions, and actually caring about the other side.

When I started in corporate, I wasn’t the loudest in the room. But I was curious. That curiosity is what let me close deals with refinery leaders and construction teams who’ve seen every trick in the book. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆. That’s why sincerity matters more than slick talk.

If you want to build something real in Oil & Gas, Energy, or Construction, get comfortable with sales. The rest flows from there.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜’𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗳 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵:

1. Write a sales pitch for something you actually care about. People can tell if you’re faking passion, and they’ll tune out fast.
2. Get comfortable with awkward silences. Most people rush to fill them. Resist. Silence puts pressure where it belongs, on the other person’s decision, not your nerves.
4. Study body language. In big industrial deals, no one says everything out loud. Learn to read the room.
4. Practice really listening. I mean, actually hear people out. Their objections aren’t rejections they’re clues about what matters.
5. Just start. Overthinking kills more deals than rejection ever will. Most folks talk themselves out of a sale before they even begin.

And it’s not just about the big wins. I’ve seen small touches like remembering someone’s favorite cap style or remembering a safety concern. Make the difference between a one-off order and a ten-year client.

𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗹𝘆. It’s the skill that turns a cold introduction into a warm relationship and a single transaction into a long-term partnership.

Nobody is born a great closer. Great salespeople are built by doing the hard things over and over until it becomes second nature.

If you want to build your career, your business, or even just your options, start with sales. Everything else gets easier once you master that.
