    Speaking the Language of Money in Sales

    Speaking the Language of Money in Sales

    Episode 18 – Speaking the Language of Money in SalesSalespeople are often afraid to talk about money. Successful salespeople know how to not only talk about money, they know how their customers' C-Suite talks about money...and if we learn how to ''speak their language'', we win big deals. If you don't master this, you will be sent to a lower-level person, or worse, relegated to Procurement. This episode focuses on the language of money when selling big sales and how to leverage it for greater success.

Big stage

As someone who has been personally trained and mentored by Tom, I can attest to the value and expertise they bring to the sales industry. Glad to see others gain exposure via this podcast as I know Toms contributions to my own career helped generate over $1B in revenue.
