Topic: Marketing and Selling with Soul
Quick Intro: I’m pumped to have a good friend of mine on the show today, a marketing and community savant may say. Scott Barker. Why I’m so pumped is because Scott has a very unique way of approaching sales, marketing, and life. He was a crucial part of Sales Hacker being acquired by Outreach, and now has helped Outreach be far and away the top marketed Sales Engagement platform out there. But in addition to that, he also runs Sales Hacker, the absolute best content source for sales reps and leaders to go and learn on a daily basis. Scott and I have had many good conversations about life, sales, and the future, and we’re going to dive into today!
