The CEOs I work with often ask me what I’m reading. I, in turn, ask them the same. It’s always interesting to hear. I do read many sales books, and I recommend most of them, but the books that aren’t directly about sales are the ones that end up making me think about sales from a different perspective. . Sales revenue is on the mind of every CEO I know.

How many times have you been told to build value when you get the price objection? Managers tell reps to stress the quality, the warranty, the features and benefits, but your prospects have heard all that before, haven’t they? Want a better way?

I haven't really mentioned baseball 605 times, but I have probably written about it 150 times!

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible.
