Going Seven Levels Deep to Find Your Why: Your ProBF Guide to Finding Your Purpose
Welcome to ProBF ProTips, our advice column from Facilisgroup’s Director of Professional Development and professional best friend (ProBF), Terri Harland! She’ll share her tips and tricks in the promotional products industry to help sales reps elevate their skills and drive incredible growth. In this installment, we teamed up with You Name It Specialties’ Wyatt to help him (and other Electrifi students) find their why sales. See how Wyatt found his purpose on You Name It Specialties’ social media.
Where’s Wyatt? Could he possibly be Finding the Why-It?
If you’ve been following You Name It Specialties, you probably know the question:
Where’s Wyatt?
This little guy has been everywhere — popping up, traveling around industry events, concerts, the office shenanigans, and apparently on a never-ending quest to figure out how to best describe his ultimate mission: Partnership.
So naturally, this week Wyatt found himself at Facilisgroup.
He’d heard something was happening that was… well…
Electrifi-ng.
Turns out, it wasn’t the lights, the coffee, or even the Wi-Fi.
It was the newest cohort of Electrifi reps — and they were going Seven Levels Deep to find their why.
And Wyatt thought:
“Wait a minute. I should probably find my why-it, too. Ya know, namesake and all”
Seems simple enough, right?
Until someone asks you why for the fifth time.
Why?
Why?
WHY?!
Even for a furry little creature, it starts to get a little annoying.
But that’s kind of the point.
Because Seven Levels Deep isn’t really about the questions.
It’s about the intention behind them.
The first answer is usually easy.
The fifth answer is where things start getting interesting.
You move past the money. Past the goals. Past the numbers. Past the thing you think is your reason…
…and you start uncovering the thing that actually fuels you.
The reason you’re willing to work harder.
To get uncomfortable.
To hear “no” and make another call.
To keep going when motivation takes the day off.
That’s the power of your why.
It doesn’t just tell you what you want.
It reminds you why you’re willing to do what it takes to get there.
So maybe Wyatt’s trip to Facilisgroup wasn’t just another stop on the Where’s Wyatt? tour.
Maybe he finally found what he was looking for.
And if a furry little mascot can go seven levels deep…
surely you big, tough sales reps can handle asking “why?” one more time.
Who knows what you might find?
