QUOTES

06:05 "Unless you had the territory that your company felt was the top territory, you had no marketing support. And unless you were responsible for large accounts, I wasn't because my passion is new business, it was on you."

11:20 "You didn't follow up on any of your leads. You have to call your leads. Look, they're literally calling and asking you to call them and you're not calling them. So of course you didn't close anything because it starts with having a conversation."

12:18 "It is being able to pay attention to what's going in your market, whether it's a territory or it's an account set or it is your business and it's your target market. You've got to be able to pay attention to where their problems are."

16:25 "In sales, you have to go practice it. And I would bet you in anything, definitely with sales, when we teach prospecting, I want people to go write their value proposition and then I want them to go use it and come back."

22:08 "Marketing, we're not getting people. Let's look at what you're targeting. It could be the market, it could be the messaging. Let's share with you what we're hearing in the market that people care about why they're using our solutions."
