The Positives and Negatives of B2C and B2B Selling

Does the type of industry you’re selling in have an impact on the success of your sales career? 

 

A lot of salespeople think that their success is dependent on a specific type of industry. But from our experience, this isn’t the case. 

 

In this episode, Matt and I, go over some of the differences between B2C and B2B selling. We discuss my transition to the B2B industry from selling in a B2C environment. We also talk about major pitfalls that salespeople commit that you should avoid making as well if you want a clear path to success. 

 

This is an episode you shouldn’t miss if you are curious about what B2C and B2B selling looks like and if a shift in industry is something you need to consider doing today.
