Notable Quotes

“The thing all sellers need to think about is – I’m seeking alignment. I’m trying to find people that fit my ideal customer profile that feel, think and believe the things that line them up really well to be a great fit for us, to be a good client.”

“We misinterpret people not responding to us as rejecting us.”

“Phone on it’s own doesn’t work. Email on it’s own doesn’t work. Digital on it’s own doesn’t work. Social on it’s own doesn’t work… To break through we’ve got to use combinations.”

“So long as your narrative is all about them and not about you and they believe they are going to get something out of a conversation, as opposed to a pitch as a salesperson, then you’re not an annoying pest, you are someone who earned the right for engagement.

“The number one mistake people make is they try to manage by results instead of managing the activities that feed into the objectives then that create the results.”

“Selling is about the transference of beliefs.”

“We don’t know what channel works best for our buyer so try all of them until you figure out which one does.”

“You need to be a true believer. You need to have great values. Buyers aren’t stupid. If you aren’t all in on what you are doing, people will really sense that. You need to be passionate about the difference you can make in customers lives with that solution you go and take to market.”
