Episode 16: Sales Infiltration: Sharpening Your Sales Instincts

In this episode of The Closers Inner Circle Masterclass, Denise Griffitts and legendary sales mentor Ben Gay III return to The Closers Part 2, diving into one of the most vital—and often overlooked—elements of successful selling: instinct.

This isn’t a script-reading session. It’s a deep, practical conversation about how great closers think, listen, and move. Ben shares how top-tier salespeople develop razor-sharp instincts that help them pick up on what isn’t being said, pivot when needed, and connect on a deeper emotional level that leads to lasting yeses.
Ben shares stories from his decades of sales experience where instincts closed the deal when nothing else would.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, this episode is all about helping you build that invisible edge—the inner sense that knows when to lean in, when to pause, and how to truly connect.
