The B2B Revenue Executive Experience

We’ve all been there...the company with the negative culture. The one where you’re afraid to raise issues to your boss. The one where you secretly search for a new job. Chances are, no one sets out to create a bad company culture. So, how do they come to be? And how can you make sure your company’s culture is positive, a place for your employees to thrive? Chris Yoko, President of Yoko Consulting, came on this episode of the B2B Revenue Executive Experience podcast to talk about intentionally creating a great company culture.

It’s not that sales and marketing are out-and-out fighting with each other. It’s more that they just won’t acknowledge that the other one exists. I got to talk with Carman Pirie, Principal and Co-Founder of Kula Partners, about how customer experience becomes seamless when sales and marketing collaborate. “Sales and marketing can't be operating in a silo. That doesn't work for today's technology, it doesn’t work for today's buyers, and it doesn't work for what we want to do as organizations in terms of delivering a seamless CX,” Carman said.Subscribe to the podcast or write a review YouTubeSpotifyApple PodcastStitcherTuneInPrevious guests include: Eric Shaver, Managing Partner at Kensei Partners, Harry Spaight, Founder of the Selling with Dignity, Jeroen Corthout, Co-Founder at SalesfareCheck out our three most downloaded episodes:Episode 189: 5 Things CRM Software Should Help You Do w/ Jeroen CorthoutEpisode 299: How to Break the Used Car Salesperson Stereotype with Harry SpaightEpisode 301: From Tech Sales to Business Conversation with Eric ShaverReady to Join the Conversation?

You’d probably rate the importance of a sales presentation at 10/10. And you’d probably rank asking questions and listening at, say, 6/10. But if asking the right questions doesn’t rank at 11/10 with you, you’re losing dozens, even hundreds, of opportunities to connect with prospects. On today’s B2B Revenue Executive Experience, we’re lucky to have Brian Robinson, author of The Selling Formula and an executive who has worked in sales and marketing for companies like Coca-Cola and Johnson & Johnson.  We had two big topics to discuss: sales malpractice and creating questions to drive results. “There's something incredibly powerful about having a list of questions you've already prepared,” Brian said.  Subscribe to the podcast or write a review YouTubeSpotifyApple PodcastStitcherTuneInPrevious guests include: Eric Shaver, Managing Partner at Kensei Partners, Harry Spaight, Founder of the Selling with Dignity, Jeroen Corthout, Co-Founder at SalesfareCheck out our three most downloaded episodes:Episode 189: 5 Things CRM Software Should Help You Do w/ Jeroen CorthoutEpisode 299: How to Break the Used Car Salesperson Stereotype with Harry SpaightEpisode 301: From Tech Sales to Business Conversation with Eric ShaverReady to Join the Conversation?

Do ethics even exist in sales? Contrary to popular belief, those who have the most ethics in sales attract customers worth having, because at the end of the day, people buy from people. I got to talk to Faiz Al-Shahab, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Xentral Methods, about what it’s like to feel like the only one holding to ethical practices when everyone else is playing dirty. “In this terrain where you are against corruption, it's going to be a tough climate for you to do business if you've got ethics,” Faiz said.

Most people, if they had zero clients, would throw in the towel. A very, very few would decide that it’s time to massively scale. When you’re scaling, how do you cross the normal revenue hurdles as well as ensure that process and structure can scale without restricting growth or creativity or innovation?  Today we're joined by Johnathan Grzybowski, CMO and cofounder of Penji, an on-demand graphic design service, about how he turned his failing business around in a little over a year.

Advertising is an industry seeing a lot of change recently. Yet, ROI from advertising is one of the easiest ways to get traction. Especially, when you advertise on LinkedIn. AJ Wilcox started B2Linked in order to help clients scale high-performing Linked In ads.  During college he heard a guest lecturer speaking about SEO and marketing. After learning Google ads and building websites for about seven years, he got hired at a new position where he was assigned to work on LinkedIn ads.  Little did he know, he was really good at it, and he grew their account to be the largest sales account on LinkedIn in the world. A few years later he started B2Linked. Today, you can hear tips on how to make the most of LinkedIn ad campaigns with an industry leading expert.  Subscribe to the podcast or write a review YouTubeSpotifyApple PodcastStitcherTuneInPrevious guests include: Eric Shaver, Managing Partner at Kensei Partners, Harry Spaight, Founder of the Selling with Dignity, Jeroen Corthout, Co-Founder at SalesfareCheck out our three most downloaded episodes:Episode 189: 5 Things CRM Software Should Help You Do w/ Jeroen CorthoutEpisode 299: How to Break the Used Car Salesperson Stereotype with Harry SpaightEpisode 301: From Tech Sales to Business Conversation with Eric ShaverReady to Join the Conversation?

Content. Content. Content.  Content is king. Content is everything. Content is what matters. Right?  Today’s companies are hyper focused on content. Content creation. Content production. Content marketing. But what if that focus was misplaced? What if most, not all, but most companies are going about it the wrong way?  Once upon a time, content marketing was very much defined as simply, “Let’s go create content!”  The problem with that approach is that once you have all of the content, you’re left with a very real problem. What do you do with it all? You’ve got piles and piles of content, and no idea how to get it in front of the people that YOU need to see it.  How do you justify all the money you spent on making that content? In order to get an ROI, you’ve got to actually USE the content you produce.  Subscribe to the podcast or write a review YouTubeSpotifyApple PodcastStitcherTuneInPrevious guests include: Eric Shaver, Managing Partner at Kensei Partners, Harry Spaight, Founder of the Selling with Dignity, Jeroen Corthout, Co-Founder at SalesfareCheck out our three most downloaded episodes:Episode 189: 5 Things CRM Software Should Help You Do w/ Jeroen CorthoutEpisode 299: How to Break the Used Car Salesperson Stereotype with Harry SpaightEpisode 301: From Tech Sales to Business Conversation with Eric ShaverReady to Join the Conversation?

Keeping employees around is not at all the same thing as keeping them engaged. Creating the right culture, setting goals, and motivating your teams requires so much more. This can be a challenging topic for executives, especially when they’re focused on the day-to-day operations of a business. They often don’t set aside the time to do this. Here to help us is Adam Weber, VP of Sales and Co-Founder of Emplify (and an avid birdwatcher!). In this one, Adam talks about a myth about millennials, how to motivate teams as they scale, and how to grow without losing the foundation of employee engagement you’re building upon.
