Bar Tips: The Bartender-Turned-Author Who Cracked the Code on Sales Without Selling with Neil Rogers
About this episode
Neil Rogers discusses the importance of emotional intelligence and genuine connection in sales, drawing from his experiences as a bartender and a father.
Neil Rogers, author of Bar Tips: Everything I Needed to Know in Sales I Learned Behind the Bar, joins Julie Lokun and Dominick Domasky to reveal why the best sales training isn't in a boardroom — it's behind a bar, rooted in hospitality, emotional intelligence, and genuine human connection. The conversation goes beyond business as Neil opens up about fatherhood, raising a non-speaking autistic son, and how empathy and presence — not pressure — are the real keys to selling, leading, and living well.
