In this episode of the No Broke Months for Salespeople podcast, Dan Rochon shares a deeply personal story of resilience and reinvention.
After losing his brokerage and facing a quarter million dollars in debt, he discovered that the path back to success wasn't just about sales, it was about teaching.
Dan reveals how the Teach to Sell method helped him rebuild not a lot of money.
only his business, but his confidence, connection, and purpose. Have I always had success in
business? No. In fact, a few years ago, I faced one of the hardest challenges of my career.
Up until that point, I had owned a really rather large real estate brokerage that, you know,
I built and I owned it for 10 years. The market shifted, though, and man, we took a hit.
And during that time, though, I made myself a promise. I said, I'm going to come back.
stronger. So I had to sell the brokerage. And it took me 13 months after selling the
brokerage to pay back everything that I owed. I owed investors. I owed partners. I owed vendors.
And it was about a quarter million dollars of debt. And it was a lot of money. And I was defeated.
But I knew that I could build myself back up. And it took me those 13 months.
So I looked at what I learned during those 13 months and I looked at the victories.
I looked at the lessons and, you know, despite the setbacks, you know, and despite the fact
that it took 13 months to repay, I still felt like I was winning.
In fact, I was a quarter million dollars below zero and I still felt wealthy.
I still felt rich the entire time.
And even through it, I never had a broke month, even though, you know, I had that big setback.
But as a real estate agent, I average 10,000.
a month ever since 2008 and that gave me the confidence that I knew I had something valuable
to share. So during those 13 months that I was working to pay everyone back, I also poured
my heart into writing my first book, Real Estate Evolution, which is the 10-step guide to
consistent and predictable income. And alongside my real estate work, I launched the consistent
predictable income community, and that's a coaching company designed to help others like you
achieve no broke months. And things began to thrive again.
And as they thrived, I want to let you know that the greatest reward wasn't the financial recovery, but goodness, I was grateful for that.
It was the transformation that I saw in myself and in others. I took the harder knowledge from my journey. I documented it. I began teaching it to others so that they can, you know, achieve their own success. And teaching became my way of restoring myself worth.
of connecting with others on a deeper level.
And that's where Teach to Sell came in.
This method helped me rebuild my career.
And it wasn't just about making sales.
It was about building trust,
creating genuine relationships, and communicating value.
Teach to Sell is about understanding
how another person perceives their circumstance
through their senses, and then teaching them how to think so that they can get what they want
and feel inspired to follow your lead. Teach to Cell showed me the power of teaching,
how it could forge connections and establish trust. And in doing so, I found my worth,
and I began to share it with others. As you navigate your journey, remember every challenge,
every setback

of worth unfold
