From Stratton Oakmont, to world-renowned sales trainer, Jordan Belfort has had a career unlike any other. With the blockbuster movie, The Wolf Of Wall Street, starring academy award-winning Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan Belfort, by now everyone knows his unbelievable story. He was a young rogue stockbroker in his twenties who built a huge firm that traded penny stocks to people all over the country, and wasn’t afraid to indulge in a little vice and debauchery along the way.
The real wolf of wall street’s journey has led him to build and mentor successful sales teams in many industries, including automotive. He broke a few laws, was arrested, and spent time in federal prison, but today, Belfort runs a sales training, recruiting, and coaching empire. He joins CBT News today, to share successful sales guidance that your dealership needs straight from the wolf’s mouth.
Belfort has an innate ability to persuade people to buy. Auto dealers call it salesmanship and not everyone is born with it as he was, but with the proper guidance, training, and luck anyone can learn it and succeed in sales. In this segment, we find out what The Wolf of Wall Street is up to today, and how he is helping auto dealers and other sales professionals succeed with Straight Line selling.Â
