    Jeb Blount on Sales Leadership: Keeping Your Team Focused on the Right Opportunities (Ask Jeb)

    When the market shifts, your salespeople won't shift with it on their own. That's your job as a sales leader. In this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount takes questions from two sales leaders navigating some of the most common and costly team management challenges in sales: how to redirect high performers when market conditions change, and how to get a small team to stop chasing easy transactional deals and start closing high-value complex ones. Jeb draws on real experience, including a story from the early days of the pandemic when one of his top performers kept prospecting into a dead market. His answer was simple: go where the money is. But making that shift happen at the team level takes leadership, market awareness, and consistent communication. The second question tackles compensation design, product confidence, and how to use success stories to shift your team's mindset from the path of least resistance to the deals that actually move the needle. In This Episode: Why salespeople won't naturally redirect their targeting when market conditions shiftHow sales leaders can stay ahead of market trends to point their teams in the right directionWhy salespeople default to easy deals and what drives that behaviorHow to fix the risk-reward structure without cutting incentives on bread-and-butter businessBuilding product confidence so your team can go toe-to-toe with complex buyersUsing success stories to motivate teams toward higher-value opportunities Perfect For: Sales leaders managing teams through market shifts or economic uncertaintySales managers with reps who avoid complex or longer-cycle dealsAnyone building or restructuring a sales compensation plan Jeb Blount is the author of Fanatical Prospecting, Objections, Sales EQ, and more than a dozen other bestselling sales books.

    How New Salespeople Can Find Sales Advice Worth Trusting (Ask Jeb)

    What if you are brand new to sales and have no idea whose advice to trust? Andrew Osborne asked Jeb Blount exactly that question, and Jeb called it one of the best he has ever heard on this show. Sales advice is everywhere and a lot of it is flat-out wrong. Someone who was number one on their team for one year is not a sales guru. A technique that works for one person in one market in one season is not a universal truth. In this episode, Jeb walks through best practices for evaluating whether someone is worth learning from, including the questions to ask, the resume details to look for, and the phrases that should make you run in the other direction. In This Episode: How to tell the difference between real sales expertise and a flash in the panWhy longevity and an active book of business are the clearest signals of credibilityThe problem with "one way" sales thinking and why Jeb avoids it entirelyWhy all sales is poetry and probability, and what that means for how you trainHow to trust your instincts when advice sounds too easy or too good Jeb Blount is the author of Fanatical Prospecting, Objections, Sales EQ, and other bestselling sales books.

    Four Principles of Effective Sales Conversations (Money Monday)

    In this episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount breaks down the four principles of effective sales conversations: why emotions are contagious and set the tone before you say a word, why your stakeholders' stories hold the clues to their real pain, how questions give you control without dominating the room, and why listening builds the kind of trust that erodes emotional walls and reveals what actually closes deals.
