Quotes
“We move salespeople into roles of authority and positions of authority and responsibility without educating them in just some of the basics” - Andy Paul
“A sales manager is the most influential person in a new seller’s life and so we must help managers get better” - Andy Paul
“If we spent 90% of the money on sales managers, we would actually end up with better results” - Andy Paul
“At the end of the day, in an overwhelming majority of cases, the decision the buyer makes, the difference between you and another vendor is you as a seller” - Andy Paul
“Your job as a salesperson is not to persuade somebody to buy your product, your job as a salesperson is to go out and listen to your buyer, understand the most important things to them both in terms of the challenges they face and the outcomes they wanna achieve, and then help them get that” - Andy Paul

“Shift from thinking about your product and focus more on a story around how a customer used your product” - Brent Keltner
