Editor's Notes

  • #10: The traditional sales tactics are not less effective than they used to be. They literally NOT effective.
  • #11: Earnings are great, but the business isn't growing. More crowded and competitive market Asked to do more with less
  • #22: Prospects are not anonymous names on a list of leads Prospects are informed and will come to you with questions Prospects are already in the process of evaluating you and your competitors Be ready (Hubspot info in SFDC)
  • #30: ATC NADA story sales through service Hard selling business didnt stick Buyers value business expertise over product knowledge (get stat) You can sell just as much, by not selling
