Chris Merrill, Meghan Forgione, and John Barrows come together in the last episode of 2021 to reflect back on the year and talk about why 2022 will be even BETTER for JB Sales.

This episode, James Buckley talks with member Sterling Frandsen, inside sales representative at Tiled, about his career start in sales, early realizations, and how the JB Sales Membership has shaped his goals, performance, and mindset.

Nick Cegelski, AE at Time by Ping, frequently participates with the JB Sales teams on their webinars and is always a welcome guest, so we are thrilled to bring him back onto Make It Happen Mondays. This is a very tactical episode talking about what you can do before, during, and after the sale. Listen in for advice on how to manage deals, how to ensure you are moving in the right direction, and getting out of deals that you shouldn't be in.

This week Alice Shaff joins John to talk about how his trainings have helped her over the years launch a career from an SDR to Head of Business Development at Anjuna. She talks about mindset, how important it is to have mentors in business, and how you have to launch your sales career first because no one else will care as much. Alice's energy and motivation to stay successful is contagious.
