Episode notes
Meetings Don't Equal Decisions
- A meeting-based process teaches reps to run meetings, not to move buyers toward decisions.
- Focus your process on buyer decisions, not seller activities.
Build A Stage-Based Process
- Do design your sales process as stages defined by buyer agreements, not fixed meetings.
- Combine or split meetings as needed to get each buyer agreement accomplished.

- Outreach compressed micro SMB deals into one-call closes with 10/10/10 minute segments.
- Those micro deals closed in seven days by combining multiple agreements into one meeting.
