New employee onboarding…what joy. After hours of training, product reviews, company culture rah rahs, and riffling through bags of swag, many employees feel they have officially started their jobs. Truth be told, one of the most important events during new hire onboarding is getting set up on the wide range of digital tools you will need to do your job.

By Tibor Shanto. Frankly, who cares? Your prospects sure don’t! No, seriously! Some of your customers maybe; your competitors – when it serves their needs. Oh ya, the marketing team that “developed” the “value prop” does. But weren’t you telling me Tuesday that they’ve never been out on a client call? What really counts in the real world (you know where sales are made), is the prospects’ and clients’ perception and definition of value.

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. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

When your computer isn't functioning the way you expect you may notice how sluggish and unresponsive it is - a symptom of the real problem - so you need to look more closely. I'm on a Mac so I open up the activity monitor to determine if a program or programs are using too much memory or utilizing too much CPU. If that's the case, I force quit those programs and if that doesn't work, I restart the device.

Modern go-to-market teams know it takes more than one email to break through the noise. Multiple touchpoints means more ways to get your pitch right — and, potentially, more ways to be wrong. The good news? Once you know how to write compelling, one-off emails to entice prospective customers, you can easily do the same across a short sequence of emails.

I just love it when our lawn looks gorgeous - thick, lush, and green, green, green. Getting it looking that good requires fertilizing, aerating, thatching, over seeding, and frequent mowing, all things better suited to the landscaping company than me. Of course, some sun and water help too. And even with an irrigation system, by the middle of the summer, areas of our lawn begin to look like crap.

By Tibor Shanto. There are certain primal triggers that are almost universal in the western world. Salespeople all know the old saying “people buy on emotion, and then rationalize it.” True, and there are a number of other reactions humans have that are at a primal level. When triggered, rather than fight it, again, they rationalize it as they act on it.

Author: Ron Carson Just about every marketer today has been told to listen to the voice of the customer to inform marketing strategy. There are two problems with this. First, marketing teams only receive this information second-hand – through sales, product management, etc. Second, if you only talk to customers, you are only speaking to people who already drink your Kool-Aid.

By Tibor Shanto. One question I always when helping sales teams prospect better, is “why B2B professionals don’t like to telephone prospecting?” The first answer is always predictable, rejection. There are many others that follow, from the length of time, to return on effort and more. But as you examine the also-rans, it all comes back to the feeling of rejection.

As leaders, most of us work long hours. It’s not unusual for me to hear a CEO or sales leader tell me they put in 12-hour days. There is always so much to be done and not enough time. Even when we love our work and the people we work with; we can feel overwhelmed and walk away from our desks leaving a mess and feeling exhausted. . It doesn’t have to be that way. .

By Tibor Shanto . One of the hardest things to face in life is rejection. It is not a flaw, but a strength. Without turning this into a science lesson, rejection is a primal reality. Think back to when our ancestors climbed down from the trees and set forth on the Savannah. If you were spurned by the tribe, you were toast, a truly existential moment.

Sales leaders, be honest — you're curious about what your peers are up to. This year has been unconventional (to put it lightly) and leaders have been faced with challenges that they likely haven’t seen at other points in their careers. The ability to share information with other leaders, or to ask "how are you managing?" is invaluable. However, that’s far easier said than done when you’ve got work to do.
