JIM’S TIP: “On LinkedIn, don’t just post about you, me, we. Post about your experiences with other people, other companies. Share knowledge.

Today’s show featured AWS Public Sector Partner Sales Leaders Ash Thankey and Andrew Christian.
ASH’S TIP: “We don’t want stagnation at AWS. We want to make sure that people are hydrating themselves with knowledge and are learning and advancing themselves. Keep learning and keep being curious.”
ANDREW’S TIP: “Learn as much as you can continually. What we do takes practice. There’s a lot to continue to learn with the technology landscape. Everything is changing day to day. In addition to just being better with the foundations as a salesperson, you also have to understand the context that customers are trying to make sense of these new changes as well. Learning as much as you can is really the only way that you’re going to keep up with that.”

JILLIAN’S ‘ TIP: “Differentiate yourselves from your peers by leveraging new GenAI tools to reduce repetitive time-consuming tasks and gain new insights into your customers. It’s going to free you up and help you bring more unique value to your customers.”
MIKE’S TIP: “Cultivate a positive mindset and resilience. Selling to large integrators can be very challenging. Develop techniques to maintain motivation, overcome rejections, because there will be rejections, and celebrate your successes. Prioritize building those relationships and really understanding these companies. Focus on the customer’s needs, earning their trust, rather than just going for the hard sale.”

Today's show featured an interview with Jason Adolf, Vice President - Global Public Sector Vertical at Appian.
JASON'S TIP: "For people who sell to the government, shed the COVID mindset. You need to go out, find a trade show, find an industry day, find a networking event, and go register for it and go. Your government customers are coming out. Your partners are going to be there. Washington tends to be a very incestuous community as far as trading people. If you are not out there, somebody else is. Your competitor is out there. If you are not out there, you’re not top of mind."

Today's show featured an interview with Marc Monday, Vice President, Global Partnerships & Alliances at Deltek.
Find Marc on LinkedIn.
MARC'S TIP: "Embrace marketing. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that marketing is a separate discipline from what you do. Marketing is selling. Increasingly, the data shows 68% to 75%, even 80% of all customer buying decisions are done digitally online before you ever see them in your CRM. As a sales professional, it is incumbent on you to become an expert at marketing and understanding what that is. That bridge between sales and marketing is probably the single most important thing that will set you apart."

They might be transactional, they might be sales, they might be consulting, they might be advisory, they might be procurement, they might be inside of your organization. Every single company in the world needs to have a partnering strategy from day one."

Today’s show featured an interview with Alan Versteeg, Global Chief Revenue Officer, Growth Matters International and James Hickman, Director of Sales at Altron Digital Business.
JAMES’ TIP: “Take 5 to 10 minutes, sit down and write down, out of this podcast or any of the other podcasts you’ve listened to on the channel, what is it you are going to go and do? Set yourself timelines to that and book a meeting now for a week or two weeks to sit down and review how you’ve progressed along those actions. None of what’s been said on this podcast or any of the others is any value unless it’s implemented and actioned. That’s the only way to get results.”
ALAN’S TIP: “If you’re a salesperson, make it a profession. That mindset will change everything. If you’re a sales manager, realize you’re there to grow salespeople that grow sales, not grow sales. That mindset will serve you everywhere. If you’re an organization, realize that nothing happens until you make a sale. As the leader, start aligning the organization behind the sales.”

Today’s show featured an interview with Anna Frazzetto, the former Chief Revenue Officer at Airswift, a workforce solutions (staffing and recruitment) organization.
ANNA’S TIP: “With the clients that you currently work with, find out something that you don’t know about them. Because there’s going to be something that you don’t know. Either about the individual that you sell to. Have you done research specifically? If you’re selling to a C-level person, maybe they belong to a certain committee that you didn’t know about. Find out something new. Every bit of information helps out.”

Today's show featured an interview with Mark Magnacca, President and Co-Founder, Allego, Inc. and Mark Lonzo, Director of Sales Development at The Hillman Group.
MARK MAGNACCA'S TIP: "To take your sales career to the next level, pick a philosophy. In the same way that there’s lots of great philosophies out there in terms of how to grow your business, how to be consultative, the key is to try to find one that you can actually follow. Trying to mix and match or mix religions, so to speak, is a lot harder than to pick one approach that you believe in and that you can hold onto and stay with over the long term."
MARK LONZO'S TIP: " I have a sign in my office that says, “If we’re not changing, we’re dying.” Always look for ways that you’re always changing and evolving as a person. Don’t become stagnant in your career. Always look for ways to improve. It’s a constant self-improvement process that you need to engage in."
