Customer Reviews
John knows sales
As a sales professional, I respect John’s approach he shares while genuinely caring about diverse representation. He’s making this information accessible and promoting an amazing profession.
Great sales podcast
I have been in the professional supply chain/procurement industry for 15+ years, and transistioned to the sales side in the last 5. John Barrows is very knowledgeable and keeps it real about selling. He brings on real life, succesful individuals who, not only challenge sales viewpoints but, can provide real life situations in which they have been applied and work. The insight that John and his guests bring has been advantageous while taking customers on the purchasing journey. Glad I found this great source of sales counsel. MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Authenticity for the win
What’s so refreshing about John is that he keeps it real. In a world with plenty of noise and phony branding, John drops in and shows up just as he is, which is of course what an effective salesperson does, too.
