    The Ten Commandments of Selling with Dr. Yaniv Zaid

    In this episode, John sits down with Dr. Yaniv Zaid—a global authority on persuasion, communication, and ethical influence. With a career spanning 22+ years, 2,500+ keynotes, and 11 bestselling books (including his latest, The New Bible of Sales: The Ten Commandments), Dr. Zaid brings razor-sharp insight into what makes people say “yes.” Together, they dive into the psychology of trust, how identity and narrative matter more than features, and the universal persuasion process that top sellers unknowingly follow. Yaniv also breaks down the fine line between manipulation and persuasion, shares why failure is one of the fastest paths to credibility, and challenges John on whether people really have to like you to buy from you.

    Kevin Davis: The Surfer’s Guide to Smarter Sales Territory Planning

    In this episode of Make It Happen Mondays, John Barrows sits down with Kevin Davis, the co-founder and CEO of Boogie Board—a company rethinking sales territory planning through the lens of data, transparency, and AI. Kevin’s journey started far from Silicon Valley, in a small Wisconsin town where he learned grit the hard way—from shoveling snow and driving plows to climbing the ranks in sales and ops. Despite saying he never should’ve been in sales, Kevin’s experience on both sides of the revenue engine gives him a rare perspective that’s now shaping how companies think about go-to-market strategy. They dive into Kevin’s “surfer, not hunter” sales philosophy, why current territory models are broken, and how we can rebuild them to create trust between reps and RevOps. Kevin also opens up about early tactical missteps, the importance of clarity in selling, and how Boogie Board is helping teams get smarter about where and how they sell. If you’re in sales leadership, RevOps, or just tired of guessing your way through territory planning—this conversation is a must-listen.
