#JenFerguson discusses selling at the sharp end. Feeding the top of the funnel is one of the most essential functions in sales because it's the #RevenueEngine. It's tough, it's a grind and it's usually the responsibility of some of your most junior and mistakenly undervalued salespeople. Given its importance and its level of difficulty, why is there so little emphasis on high quality training for these frontline salespeople? On developing their broader business acumen? On coaching, lesson capture and collaboration?
Churning and burning junior sales staff has long been a problem in #SDR roles. Leadership of SDRs needs to focus on maximising their progress to increase their effectiveness. Too often it's seen as a temporary stepping stone to bigger and better things. Leadership focussing on volume of activity instead of call quality results in burnout, disappointing experiences with buyers who feel like they're being interrupted with little or no value received, and SDRs not understanding why they're doing to make their lives harder than they need to be. The pressure to rush to a premature demo without effective qualification to people who can only say no or maybe is madness.

How do you argue with an idiot? Why don't people pay enough attention to the facts? Can the tense that you use kill your idea in the minds of others?
Do you want to know how to minimise destructive conflict, maximise your impact and achieve consensus even with the most recalcitrant opponent? Have you ever wondered how people with less talent or competence can get their way whilst you struggle to even be heard?
#JayHeinrichs and I discuss applied #rhetoric. Rhetoric has been a significant influence on the formation of Western democracy and is at the heart of our identity. We discuss it in the context of life, business and family. In this interview we explore how the use of the right or wrong tense can help you win or lose an argument, have your idea taken up with enthusiasm or be shot down. We explore how to build and improve your personal brand through craft, caring and cause.
A fascinating conversation about something we all (mis)use inadvertently everyday. You can either make it you ally or your enemy.

"What's the worst that could happen? I'll have to live with my mum. Motivation is just energy. Procrastination is a decision where you value something else more than doing the thing that is required. A mistake made more than once is a decision!", says Paul Mort
Warning: Explicit language, no punches pulled
#PaulMort is straight talking, uncompromising and direct. Bi-polar, formerly suicidal, Paul confronts topics most of us prefer to hide or ignore. Expect to have the scales ripped from your eyes and your ears burned in this interview. Paul has a following of millions, coaching men to reclaim their power, take control, find clarity, direction and inner peace while lighting a fire under their arse to pursue and realise their dreams.
"What are you knowingly doing that is preventing you from resolving this?"
We rip apart the motivational speaking industry for the con that it is. We explore why self-sabotage is not a thing, why we lie to ourselves to make ourselves feel better about choosing something else than what is required of us. We explore beliefs, scripting, excuse making, catastrophising.
Correction: Essentialism by Greg McKeown (whilst excellent) isn't the book I meant. I meant #HowToBeMiserable by Randy Paterson
Paul discussed the top narratives he used to run for not achieving your goals and how he fixed himself:
- I won't be able to handle it
- I have bi-polar (whatever your crutch condition is)
- I'm not very good with money
- I'm terrible on the phone
Any of these sound familiar? What evidence do you have that any of these excuses that you run in your head are true? Would you be willing to making such statements in front of a jury?
Expect to be offended, upset & shocked. I can't wait for the hate mail to flood in ...

"The key is curiosity. When we learn we better our thinking" says Dr #LyndaShaw is an applied neuroscientist who has travelled widely, and investigates how language and culture affects the brain, and how the brain affects language and behaviour.
We discuss how our environment can shape us. We explore how uncertainty and ambiguity stress our brains and why we seek out answers where they are missing, filling in the gaps though worry. Lynda shares her concerns for mental health and how forward thinking managers and leaders can get ahead of these problems. Listen to her advice on the power of routine to reduce stress and overcome the body's negative hormonal response to isolation, fear for your health or your job.
Lynda shares a wonderful story about how a Dr An Wang showed vulnerability to work through a major crisis to galvanise his entire workforce to support the business and each other. We share some ideas on how to develop creative ideas to overcome even the toughest of problems.

We're in uncertain times. There's complexity and volatility with no clear end to the pandemic, governments printing money, zero interest rates, oil is through the floor, the dollar is looking precarious, unemployment is rising fast and Ray Dalio is predicting the stock market is looking at a "lost decade". Governments are looking at withdrawing support around the world at the same time at the end of July, which could trigger a stock market crash.

#JamesAbraham, regional developer for Sandler in Israel, discusses adapting to VUCA, volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity.
We explore how you need to think differently, behave differently and communicate differently in our sales and our marketing. A crisis is bad for most, but good for the few who are prepared, willing to take calculated risks and can deliver massive value when others focus on cutting back.

The world's best salespeople come from Switzerland, according to OMG's research (2020). Why is that? #FredKermisch helps salespeople in #privatebanking establish and build trust, earn the loyalty and faith of their clients.. He explains why a history of hospitality has built a culture where sellers have learned to help customers trust them, feel cared for and feel safe.
Fred explains why the pressure managers put salespeople under to achieve quota, frequently backfires because high networths get very nervous when a bank applies pressure to serve their own selfish need to hit quota. We explore the ways salespeople devalue their brand and create the conditions for needless customer churn. The principles we discuss apply in all sales environments.
We take a dignified and gentlemanly foray into (mis)hiring, onboarding, training, accountability and forecasting. Fred is the embodiment of someone you want to do business with. He exudes reliability, a strong service mentality and personal commitment.

#OliverParker is an executive recruiter with a difference. He doesn't let his clients make bad hires. He challenges them. He does the ground work by interviewing the people a new hire will be working with. he interviews the Board. And he makes sure the job you say you want to hire is the job you need to hire for.
We have a very in depth, brutally frank conversation about the mistakes, mostly avoidable that result in 40% of executive hires failing within their first year. That is a massively costly mistake and usually down to the recruiter allowing their desire to secure the assignment rather than standing up to the CEO or Chair, having robust discussions about what the intended outcome from hiring will be and making sure that there is a suitable fit culturally, in terms of value, mission and purpose.

#PaulLloyd discussed how he increased his own effectiveness running his channel by 1800%. His approach is radical, you'll find it scary and you'll question whether you can pull off a similar approach.
I've been advocating such an approach because it exploits Price's Law which states that 50% of your production will come from the square root of the number of people or partners in your sales organisation.
Have a listen, take notes and get in touch with me to talk about how you can execute to deliver similar improvements in effectiveness, in efficiency and maximise the profitability of your partners.
