Have a Helping Conversation Instead of a Sales Conversation with Reuben Swartz (Part 1)

Having someone over as a guest on your podcast is more than just interviewing this person. It's a lot about exchanging valuable insights and lessons while also potentially building a long-lasting relationship through meaningful conversation.

In this episode of the Salescast Podcast, our host Edward Purmalis talks to Reuben Swartz, Founder of Mimiran CRM and host of the Sales for Nerds Podcast. Reuben talks about using his experience and journey in consulting and how this eventually translated to having pleasant conversations over wine through podcast recordings!

QUOTES

Reuben on the commercialization of the podcast space: "Then you have a bunch of people coaching other folks on how to make money from your podcast. And there's nothing wrong with that per se but then you end up attracting a bunch of people who are really only there because they want to make money. They're not there because they have that enthusiasm and passion."

Reuben on the business relationships that can be built after inviting someone on the show: "In terms of business people, some people don't respond. I haven't got a hundred percent success rate of getting guests to come on the show. I've been very pleasantly surprised at how easy it's been to get guests on. Even famous people on my bookshelf back here!"
