[19:04] “How frustrating is it when you have a great demo? You're feeling good. They like it. It seems like a done deal. And then crickets, nothing reaches out. They're not responding to you at all.”
[32:19] “I talked to so many leaders who try something and it might have been the right thing, but they never gave themselves a chance to prove it. They never gave themselves a chance to get better at it and show themselves that that's the right thing. And so they stop it before it ever evolves into that phenomenal, perfect way to drive leads or get people excited or close deals or whatever it is. So I love that you're saying that be consistent, be persistent with it, keep it going. And I think that that's really critical.”
