What makes his story particularly compelling is how he transformed from being essentially penniless (with just a single nickel) to becoming a renowned figure in the sales training world. His journey demonstrates remarkable resilience, skill, and determination.
The fact that he went from having virtually nothing - driving a borrowed vehicle and possessing only a nickel - to becoming a bestselling author and respected sales trainer is a testament to his personal drive and exceptional capabilities in the sales profession.

Ben Gay III's Remarkable Journey: From One Nickel to Sales Legendary Status
We were planning on opening up The Closers Pt 2 again this week when Ben floored me by telling a tiny bit of a very important story in his history and I am calling that the Down To My Last Nickle but Never Down and Out story.
According to the story shared during our podcast last week, he arrived in Placerville, California with an incredibly humble beginning - driving a loaned vehicle and possessing literally just one nickel in his pocket. This moment represented the absolute worst of his financial circumstances.
From this incredibly challenging starting over point, Ben Gay III would go on to become:
- A globally famous sales expert
- Author of "The Closers" book series AKA The Sales Bibles
- An internationally recognized sales training authority
- An author whose books have sold over 10 million copies
