Topic: Building Sales RANGE

Quick Intro: I’m a firm believer that the sales industry has OVER specialized, we have put people into buckets to try and make them really good at one thing, but it is actually hurting overall results. That’s why I’m so excited to have Dejuan Brown on the show today because he has what the call RANGE. SMB sales, Enterprise Sales, Leadership and Enablement. Scaling and working with the big boys. Mentor or Freelance consultant. This dude has dabbled in it all, which is why I think it gives him such a unique perspective approach to sales, scaling and coaching. I hope you’re ready to get your range on, here we go!
