#JohnRosso inspires me. He's been an inspiration to me for the past 17 years and is someone all Sandler trainers and clients have been influenced by. His impact cannot be overstated within our community.

John and I explore what's going on in the sales community under Covid-19. We investigate what's working and what isn't, what managers can do to help or hinder their salespeople. And what salespeople are doing to hinder themselves. He uses real world examples to show best practices and what the average salespeople and average managers are doing. If you are doing those things, take a hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why? Is it fear, apathy, ignorance, denial or ego that holds you back the most?

If you are fan of qualifying for BANT (budget, authority, need and time) you are going to hate this interview because we put that ugly baby to bed once and for all when we discuss the importance of qualifying conceptually. Average (BAD) salespeople try to qualify for BANT because they've been taught to do that by terrible managers (94% of managers are UNQUALIFIED for the job based on SRC's 2020 global research study, and frankly, I'm amazed it's that low a percentage!). John sheds light on a far more elegant way of engaging in the qualification process that true sales professionals will love.

I'm not going to give away any more. Have a listen. Pure gold throughout.
