Have you ever thought of the sales legacy you want to leave behind? What is it that you want others to say about you when you are no longer here?
If you haven’t given this any thought, it might be time you start!
Ask yourself, what do you want people to say at your funeral? What would you like people to talk about many many years from now, in regards to you?
Let’s be honest, everyone has a legacy, whether it’s positive or negative is really up to how you’ve lived your life. You might be someone who is quickly forgotten, or you could be an individual who makes a lasting impact on the world.
For me, creating The Pitch Queen was all about leaving something impactful and memorable behind. My podcast, Success Unfiltered, will be here forever.
The lessons that not only I teach and share, but also the lessons from the entrepreneurs I interview will make that lasting impact that I so desire.
If you want to create a sales legacy that lasts, it’s time to get down to work!
Go All In
If you’ve built a business that you’re passionate about, it’s going to be easy for you to go all in. You won’t struggle to do the things you need to do to make a difference with your business because, ultimately, you love what you do. Who hates doing things they love?
My guest on Success Unfiltered, Drew Canole, has created an incredible legacy with his businesses, fitlifeTV and Organifi, and he takes this very seriously. Drew believes that leaving a positive impact not only helps build his fiscal sense but also on a spiritual, emotional sense, as well.
Drew generously provides complimentary Organifi products to people in need all the time. His goal is to raise the consciousness of the planet, and since his drink is like liquid light, when people drink it, it’s infusing their cells with the delicious plants inside.
That’s powerful!
For Drew, he’s not looking for a monetary payment, he wants to live from a place that does good work for the earth and the people who inhabit it.
Drew is ALL IN when comes to fitness, raising the consciousness and transforming people from their soul, to their heart and their body. This is what’s important to him and it is the legacy he will leave behind.
It might be time to consider the legacy you want to leave. For me, doing the Success Unfiltered podcast is part of my legacy plan. If I can change or inspire just one person to take action, then it’s worth it.
I go ALL IN. I don’t hesitate to work whenever needed, because I know that what I’m teaching can change people’s lives.
Your Soul’s Purpose
I was born with a gift for sales. I never question this because I have seen the fruits of my labor. And, because I’ve been successful, I try to share my knowledge with any and all who will listen.
Because I am good at sales, I could have started any business and likely found success, because I can sell. But, I don’t want to be known for anything else right now except being, The Pitch Queen. Helping mission driven entrepreneurs or business owners who sell high value services to their clients without feeling sleazy or pushy so that they can increase confidence in their sales conversations and increase their revenue. I am the real deal. I want to share my gifts with the world, just as Drew shares his through fitlifetv and Organifi.
I want to teach you all how to be a little bit more professionally annoying, so that you can ultimately help more people. I want you to be able to raise the money you need so that YOU can build the business that lights your soul up. I want to teach you how to pitch your products so that the person who purchases them feels the impact of your products.
When you’re able to figure out your soul’s purpose and your mission in life, it becomes really, really easy to do your work. Everything just falls into place.
What Do You Want to Leave Behind?
Before reading this article, had you ever given any thought to what legacy you wanted to leave behind? Are you wheels now spinning?
Maybe there’s something that you’ve been dying to do, something that you’ve been sitting with for a long time, but you keep putting it off because of the potential risks. It’s time for you to stop waiting, and start taking action.
Like my friend Garrain Jones says, “You were born in a day. There’s a dash in between and then there’s an end date. What do you want to happen in between?”
If you don’t know how to answer that question, I urge you to take the time to figure it out.
Tomorrow is never guaranteed, so don’t waste today!
In Conclusion
I don’t know when my last day will come, but I am certain that I am creating something that’s not only purposeful and helpful, but it will leave an impactful legacy behind. What I am creating WILL change people’s lives!
It’s time to build the business that lights your soul up, and leave a legacy that will change the course of the world.
I would love it if you shared what legacy you hope to leave behind, in the comments.

I am Master Salesman Elmer G Leterman’a archivist. For ten years before his death in 1998
he was my friend and mentor while I was a Student Vocational Counselor at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton Florida. I specialized in counseling business students interested in pursuing a career in selling.
During this time my wife Barbara (who is a photo publicist) socialized with Elmer and his wife Billy in Fort Lauderdale Florida where they lived. Billy gave me Elmer’s personal collection of
books and his famous personal reprints that he carried in his coat pockets after Elmer died.
I am interested in initiating an Elmer Leterman Legacy Project aimed at youth and young salesmen, which was his interest in writing 6 best selling books on salesmanship.
