QUOTES
06:14 "It goes to the act of listening. Radical listening skills, I think, is the other reason that we don't do it, is because we don't listen well enough to be able to feed off of what was just said and dig down deeply there."
09:46 "It all comes down to listening, framing that, summing it up, getting that that's right, to then have the permission to jointly move on down the path."
15:44 "Just don't go too quick to pricing and then get them in the pipeline and then chase their tail for the next 6 months trying to get the thing closed because when you're saying yes to doing that, you're saying no to doing other things."
18:13 "What resources will you have? What value can you bring that, when timing is right, you are the person that stood out because they're going to buy you and the sales process that you took them to, more so than your price or even your service offering."
22:55 "What we've found is that sales development is no different than recruiting. It just has different names to it.
