Long before thousands of women started learning the art of conversation and the science of persuasion…

there was a dad teaching his daughter.

If you’ve been around The Salesgirls for a while, you’ve probably heard me mention him before — Loy Day. He’s the person who originally taught me the sales principles that eventually became the foundation of everything we teach today.

Some of the frameworks I teach now started as conversations between the two of us years ago — sometimes at the dinner table, sometimes in the car, ALWAYS in moments I didn’t fully realize were shaping my future.

Before filming this interview, we asked our community what they would want to ask him.

Of course there were questions about sales.

But there were also a lot of parenting questions.

Not many people get the opportunity to sit down and interview their dad like this.

I’m really grateful we captured this conversation, and I’m glad it will live here forever.

If you enjoy the interview, comment and I'll read them all to Loy!
