What Ryan Reynolds Can Teach You About Sales

He missed his calling.

You’re selling products. Ryan sells feelings.

Most salespeople pitch features, pricing, and “differentiators.” They forget that humans don’t make buying decisions based on spreadsheets—they make them based on gut instinct and emotion.

Ryan doesn’t sell minutes and megabytes. He sells relatability. He sells self-awareness. He sells trust.

And when people trust you, the decision gets easy.

You think professionalism means being boring.

Somewhere along the line, companies decided that being "serious" meant stripping all the humanity out of their messaging.

• Stiff copy.

• Robotic demos.

• “Solutions” no one asked for.

But here’s the thing: people already know they have options. They just want to feel good about choosing you.

Ryan gets that. His sales pitch is funny, honest, sometimes ridiculous—but always authentic. And it works.

Sell like a real person.

• Use humor if it fits.

• Talk like you would to a friend.

• Show people you actually get them.

• Stop hiding behind jargon and buzzwords.

You don’t have to be a comedian. You just have to be someone people want to say yes to.

Sales isn’t about force. It’s about familiarity. Build that, and the closing gets a lot easier.

People don’t buy the best product. They buy the best vibe.

Bring more of you into the pitch. That's what closes deals.
