Today’s show featured Holly Rollo, the author of The Power of Surge. We also featured John Shrader, Chief Revenue Officer at construction software company Arcoro.

HOLLY’S TIP: “The real thing that’s going to differentiate you is a frictionless customer experience. That customer experience can’t be managed if it’s in bits and pieces all over the place. Then sales, marketing and customer success aren’t radically aligned, which is what I’m a big advocate of. Priorities become really, really clear when you figure out where’s the friction in that customer experience and how can you properly set goals, which I think would help align CEO expectations, not just on marketing, but on the investments and attention spent across the go-to-market roles that remove that friction and make the experience stronger.”

JOHN’S TIP: “What are those things that you’re doing on a regular basis that cover three things? You’re always prospecting, you’re selling, and you’re closing. There’s different times in your day, your month, your week that the amount of time you spend between those three things shifts. The beginning of a month, you’re going to be spending more probably on prospecting. The bottom end of a month you’re doing more on closing. But that balance of how you do that in a day matters.”
