168 Britta Fischlin Empathy is Critical in Sales

February 07, 2020 23:32 - 34 minutes

Empathy might be a soft skill, but empathy doesn’t mean passive. I means seeking first to understand, take someone else’s perspective, and understand their needs. With this information, we lead our buyers through a process. Not pushy. Leading. Sometimes it means leading a buy to the conclusion that our solution might not be a good fit.    Britta Fischlin combines 25 years of business and marketing background in media and high-tech with a deep level of listening, years of coaching, somati...

166 Rishad Tobaccowala You Need Spreadsheets AND Stories

January 28, 2020 12:00 - 48 minutes

Why is a mathematician, MBA, and Marketing Executive writing a book about the soul of business? For many reasons. But one reason in particular is that numbers are backwards looking, and if someone wants to be innovative, they need to look into the future. Innovation is forward looking.    Rishad Tobaccoawala, author of Restoring the Soul of Business: Staying Human in the age of data, realized that the secret to business success is merging spreadsheets and stories. Companies that do this ...

165 Lauren Costella What Comes First, Strategy or Execution?

January 24, 2020 15:27 - 43 minutes

It’s the chicken or the egg question of our times….What comes first, strategy or execution? According to Lauren Costella, VP of Customer Success at GoodTime.io, it’s probably execution. Yes, you need a plan. Yes, you need to know where you want to go. And yes, you need some idea how you will get there, but the bottom line is that you really don’t know any of that until you start executing.    When you start executing. You learn. When you learn, you can execute better. And when you execut...

164 John Jantsch The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur

January 21, 2020 04:20 - 29 minutes

I never would have thought we’d do a show based on inspiration from a "renegade minister, a handyman turned political activist and naturalist, and an innovative educator and early feminist voice.” But we did. Thanks to John Jantsch, author of the new book, "The Self-Relient Entrepreneur: 366 Daily Meditations to Feed Your Soul and Grow Your Business.”   Although this book was written for entrepreneurs, who John traditionally serves, the lessons in this book apply to anyone. We talked abo...

163 Kris Bondi More Diverse Boards Perform Better

January 11, 2020 00:41 - 49 minutes

I met Kris Bondi, CMO at LogDNA at the SaaStr Scale founders dinner in August 2019. She belonged there. I was an imposter trying to keep up. We talked about all manner of things, which eventually led to a discussion of what makes strong communities.   One important factor is diversity and inclusion.   She had evidence.   According to recent Gartner piece on the impact of diversity and inclusion on performance, Through 2022, 75% of organizations with frontline decision-making team...

162 David Meerman Scott Creating Fans as a Business Model

January 07, 2020 12:00 - 36 minutes

I know what you’re thinking. I thought the same thing. “I work for an enterprise software company. We don’t have fans.” If it’s true that you don’t have fans, it’s because you haven’t created any fans. HubSpot has fans. Atlassian has fans. And to prove the point that any business can have fans, Hagerty Classic Car Insurance has one million subscribers to it’s YouTube channel.    David Meerman Scott, author of Fanocracy: Turning Fans into Customers and Customers into Fans, told us the sto...

161 Scott Young Your Career Depends on Ultralearning

January 04, 2020 23:24 - 46 minutes

Learning how to learn might be the most important thing you learn in life. Especially now…in a world that is moving fast and conspiring to distract you. Our careers depend on it. The problem is that most of us never actually learned how to learn, and we cannot afford not to have a learning method we can trust. Scott Young gives us a method for learning in his book, Ultralearning: Master Hard Skills, Outsmart the Competition, and Accelerate Your Career.    To make this episode as useful a...

160 Mike Weinberg Create Opportunities Don’t Chase Them

December 13, 2019 15:53 - 38 minutes

You know that stat…..that 57% of the buying decision is made before a buyer calls you? Well guess what…it’s baloney. That stat is made for sales people who want to sit around waiting for the emails to come in. Professional sales people don’t wait around for the phone to ring. No professional, in any career or job type, wait around for something to happen. They make things happen.    Mike Weinberg, author of #SalesTruth: Debunking the Myths. Apply Powerful Principles.

159 Tim Teeter The Finance Tool That’s Actually a Customer Satisfaction Tool

December 06, 2019 13:01 - 35 minutes

If you have listened to at least a few of the lat 30 episodes of Helping Sells Radio, you probably noticed I cite the invoicing processes as a step in the customer experience that is largely ignored by the chief customer officer because “that’s a finance thing.” And that there aren’t that many accounts receivable managers who think about the customer experience. That’s not really their job. Who could blame ‘em. Collections is kind of important, wouldn’t you say? But a bad invoicing process c...

158 Resa Gooding Don’t Find Leads Create Experiences

November 27, 2019 15:00 - 47 minutes

When I spoke with Resa Gooding, we talked about how to align sales and marketing teams together in service of how customer actually buy. After all, sales and marketing teams are notorious for not getting along with each other. There’s this tension. Marketing says, “Why can’t you close deals, we send you plenty of leads.” Sales says, “We’re not getting good leads from you.” The real problem is that the buyer suffers.    The question then is how do we get sales and marketing to work togeth...

157 Dr. Cindy McGovern is a Helpoholic and Now We Know Why

November 22, 2019 19:48 - 50 minutes

“But I’m not a sales person.” How many times have you heard that? How many times have you said that. Dr. Cindy McGovern went from college professor (the opposite of salesperson) to selling insurance and realized that although she never thought of her self as a salesperson, sales is what she had been doing all alone. She wrote her book, “Every Job is a Sales Job: How to Use the Art of Selling to Win a Work,” to help us mere non-sales mortals how to get over our “ick” factor and start selling ...

156 Rob Gallo What Real Customer Loyalty Looks Like

November 20, 2019 15:44 - 39 minutes

Rob Gallo, founder and CEO of CompLinks, joined us to talk about customer loyalty.

Pick up the phone. Call a customer. Go visit them in person. Learn more about real loyalty from Rob. He created a special page for our h...

155 Rachel Lane Voice of the Customer + Behavior = Churn

November 08, 2019 20:25 - 44 minutes

What people say and what people actually do are two very different things. When asked, most of us say we eat healthy. But if you look at what is actually in our kitchens, you might find a lot of Gino’s pizza rolls and bags of chips with the phrase, “Made with Natural Ingredients” on them. What does this have to do with customer experience? Rachel Lane, The Customer Queen and Solutions Principle at Medallia, tells us that the best way to understand our customers is to look at the voice of the...

148: Sandy Mamoli Self-Organizing Teams, Self-Selection, Self-Organizing Organizations, and Holacracies

October 03, 2019 12:00 - 49 minutes

I was just following the Agile Australia conference hashtag (#agileaus) on Twitter when Sandy's name came up. When I read about her conference talk is saw words like self-organizing teams. OK. I know that one. That's what scrum teams do well. But then I saw the term self-selection. Self-selection? Does than mean I can put myself on my team at work I want? Mostly, yes, according to Sandy Mamoli. And Sandy knows about self-selection. She wrote the book on it, "Creating Great Teams: How Self-Se...

147: Harry Maziar Great Sales People Don't Sell They Help People Buy

October 01, 2019 11:49 - 37 minutes

Harry Maziar may not be a technology professional as you and I would describe it. I don't care. He knows more about helpful selling than I'll ever know, which is why I wanted to talk to him on Helping Sells Radio. After a successful career in sales, then running sales, then as president, then as chairman of a publicly traded NYSE company, Harry wrote a book called, Story Selling: Sage Advice and Common Sense About Sales and Success. The book is full of memorable and useful advice, like "I mu...

September 16, 2019 11:50 - 43 minutes

Fresh off the plane from the CS100 Summit in Sundance, Utah, Carlos Quezada, head of customer success at Aruba talks about how he had the instinct to build a customer success team with a data person first.

There are major lessons here for how to build customer success at scale with a very small team. ...

144: Pamela Meyer Reactive, Responsive. What's the Difference?

September 13, 2019 17:25 - 47 minutes

OK, so maybe agile and digital transformations are not specifically about helping sells. On the other hand, if our organizations and teams are not agile, don't respond to customer needs quickly, and are unable to adapt in uncertain times, we may not have any customers to help anyway. This is why I wanted to talk to Pamela Meyer, author of Pamela Meyer, author of Agility Shift: Creating Agile and Effective Leaders, Teams, and Organizations. She says the majority of executives say that agility...

143: Scott Brown Turning Acorns into Gold

September 09, 2019 00:47 - 43 minutes

Scott Brown, author of (C)lean Messaging: A framework to help startup founders talk to humans, didn't actually turn acorns into gold. He was trying to explain to me how to apply one of the principles from his book. The key to being remembered is to combine a message with a picture and a story. One of the stories in the book is of a company that applied this principle and came up with, "We turn acorns into gold." It makes sense when you read it. To help me understand this principle even more,...

142: Steve Farber If You Wanted Your Customers To Love You, What Would You Do?

August 22, 2019 18:49 - 41 minutes

I have two questions for you? First, if you wanted your customers to love you, what would you do? Would you call them more? Improve your service? Introduce them to others? Second, if you wanted your employees to love you what would you do? Get to know them at a personal level? Promote them? Pay them more? Help them advance in their career? In this episode of Helping Sells Radio, I talked to Steve Farber about his new book,  Love is Just Damn Good Business: Do What You Love, In The Service of...

140: Greg Dickinson Buyers Have a Job to Do. Let's Just Help Them Do That.

August 14, 2019 03:15 - 43 minutes

Product demos are broken. They are either a 60 minute feature dump or completely ignore the buyer's needs. We've all been on demos like that. Some of us might have even delivered demos like that. Well, not us. Other people. What makes all of this worse is that most companies hold their demos hostage behind a form, leaving potential buys to ask themselves, "Do I give them my email address and phone number so they can hound me for 2 months so I can see a 60 minute feature dump?" Customer wish ...

137: Torrey Podmajersky Writing for UX and Customer Success

July 05, 2019 15:35 - 39 minutes

The writer and customer success manager in me saw Torrey Podmajersky's (UX Writer at Google) new book, Strategic Writing for UX: Drive Engagement, Conversion, and Retention with Every Word, and said to myself, "OMG, let's talk about this." So we did and pressed record. You might ask yourself why this kind of writing matters. In Torrey's words, "we need to onboard people into our product experience" with the expressed purpose of "setting them up for success." Yes, the product design must be g...

136: Todd Hockenberry Everybody Wants to Grow, but No One Wants to Change

June 25, 2019 23:14 - 43 minutes

Change is great. You go first. That's the first thing I thought about when Todd said, "Everybody wants to grow, but no one wants to change."

Everything. The entire philosophy of inbound marketing is based on the premise of being helpful...producing helpful and educational marketing that gives value first,...

June 18, 2019 17:37 - 48 minutes

This according to Rick Adams, author of Practical Customer Success Management: Best Practice Framework for Rapid Generation of Customer Success. Since that is the purpose, customer success managers (CSMs) should focus their energy close this gap and help customers realize the value they were promised when they bought your product. Rick's...

133: Glenn Gaudet Employee Advocacy is the New Customer Advocacy

June 05, 2019 01:42 - 46 minutes

We talk about customer advocacy, but we rarely talk about employee advocacy. When you think about it, who has more of an affinity for your company than your employees? Why not enable employees to advocate for your company. If we really believe the mantra, "if we take care of our employees, they will take care of our customers," then why not advocate for our employees and help them build their personal brands along the way. Glenn Gaudet, founder and CEO of GaggleAMP, the first employee advoca...

132: Mary Poppen Increased NPS 40 Points Implementing a Self-Service Customer Success Model. It's OK to Be Jealous Now.

May 29, 2019 00:57 - 50 minutes

Mary Poppen, Chief Customer Officer at Glint (now part of Linkedin) joined Helping Sells Radio to talk about how she implemented a low-touch, self-service customer success model and increased NPS at the same time. It seems counter intuitive that a company can do this. Most of us might think customers would want more service, more hands-on service, and more personalized service. But guess what? Mary listened to customers and guess what they said. Just guess. They said, "We want you to help us...
