Building B2B Sales Systems That Scale Without Sales Heroics


Listen Later

In this episode Olaf Lesniak shares why sustainable B2B growth comes from systems—not individual sales heroics.

Olaf explains how he built two 7-figure companies by designing repeatable sales processes, installing simple management routines, and structuring CRM pipelines that reveal problems instead of hiding them.

If your sales success depends on a few strong performers, or your follow-up feels inconsistent, this conversation will help you rethink how sales should actually work.
