Macro vs. Micro: Sales Skills That Actually Matter

Bill and Bryan break down the difference between macro and micro sales skills—and why both matter more than you think. Inspired by a prospect who called out his own team for not asking clarifying questions, this episode explores the big-picture capabilities that separate average performers from top producers.

They cover essential macro skills including strategic planning (with outcomes AND behaviors), reverse engineering your goals, financial literacy for sales professionals, explaining complex concepts clearly, and the art of storytelling. Plus: the "Gen Z stare," why unlearning quickly is your competitive advantage, and how one sales leader couldn't name five conquest accounts.

This is part one of a two-part series. Micro skills coming next week.
