QUOTES
06:50 "Any marketing stuff that is done well that doesn't help either drive revenue or whatever else the corporate goals might be, is truly a waste of time and money. And the problem is not every marketer understands that."
10:40 "I'll be perfectly frank with you man, I think it's the other way. I think marketing really needs to understand what drives sales. I would say it's a 9 to 1 balance, and if the marketing people don't understand which is driving revenue, then they're basically wasting their companies money."
14:19 "Sales is a process that's why one of the challenges is we measure sales these days but what's the journey? What has to happen at various stages and why does it happen? That's how you get better as a sales professional."
22:31 "Make everyone you're talking to feel important. Imagine like they have a little placard on their chest that says 'make me feel important' because here's the number one rule in sales, 'it aint about you.'"
26:09 "People are starting to realize that investing more on these type of things, in themselves personally are gonna help them perform better, you know? It's great to talk about all the tactics and social selling and how to negotiate better and all those things that are important, but if you take care of yourself personally, you're gonna be better at all those things."
