Friday Coffee Talks

Friday Coffee Talks #38 - This month's sales-focused episode stems from a question I received during my LinkedIn AMA a few weeks ago. What advice would the current you give the you that was just starting out in sales? Check out my answer in the video and why I think it's so important to take to heart. Also, the Braves are through to the NLCS! Fair warning: I'm going to be insufferable if they make it to the World Series. #ForTheA

Friday Coffee Talks #37 - Sheetz is one of my favorite customers to work with and quite a bit of that has to do with how genuinely great the people are. The company's mission and vision are clear and always involve helping their community. I always look forward to their annual IT Partner Days event in which they raise money for their charity, Sheetz for the Kidz. I also finally got to try their latest beer collaboration thanks to my good pal, Scott Robertson.

Friday Coffee Talks #36 - Braves are NL East Champs! #ForTheA What a fun night to celebrate the four-peat and look forward to the playoffs. The cherry on top was Bryce Harper going 0-12 in the series. MVP? I think not. Fall brings playoff baseball but also cooler weather and signature fall flavors. I have a favorite and it's definitely not pumpkin spice.

Friday Coffee Talks #35 - My first week of travel that really felt like old times again! Between multiple flights, many hours in the car, and some excellent meetings, this was my first week where I really packed it all in like we used to in the before times. I tried The Rock's new energy drink this morning and discuss the arrival of StorMagic's new CEO - Dan Beer. Above all though, I made my triumphant entrance to my first Wawa.

Friday Coffee Talks #34 - We gathered our team in Raleigh for our quarterly meeting and were able to spend some time with our good friends at Lenovo. It was great to see my old friend (and their Video Guru) Adrian Escobedo, so we ducked out for a few and had this quick conversation about video habits, how travel has changed, and why it's awesome to always be #CameraOn.

Friday Coffee Talks #33 - FCT has a logo??? We fancy! NFL is back, fall drinks are at Starbucks, and it was too cool to walk outside in a t-shirt this morning. I know it's just Fake Fall #1 here in Georgia, but I am HERE FOR IT. Quick discussion on extracurricular activities from when I was a kid and what my kids are getting into now. Also shameless plug for the launch of our store last night at PiggyJos.com!

Friday Coffee Talks #32 - It's football season again! Bring on the upsets, the team loyalty, the nachos, and most importantly - To Hell With Georgia. This week's episode is about grabbing attention in sales and how to get that first meeting. My thoughts go counter to the norm, but I'm not sure why that is? If you're being sold to, would an offer to compensate you for your time in the event that you're not interested turn you off or demonstrate that your sales rep shows confidence?

Friday Coffee Talks #31 - New camera, new title overlay, new perspective? That's right, it's background tour day and I'm taking you through all the things on my shelves. LEGO, pictures, most everything GT you can think of, and some ballin' stuff from my Pappaw - it's all there and makes me happy to see every morning. What are some of the things that make your office unique?

Friday Coffee Talks #29 - I’ve decided to start at least one business-focused episode a month. This one discusses one of the most important topics for an IT seller - working with channel partners. I also include a story that adds another chapter to Brian Grainger’s legendary carnivore status.
