Episode 118: 3 Ways to Align Marketing & Sales for Optimal Performance w/ Carman Pirie

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?

Episode 117: Sales Prescription without Diagnosis is Malpractice w/ Brian Robinson

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?

Episode 116: How to Promote Ethics and Integrity in Sales When it seems No one else is w/ Faiz Al-Shahab

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.
