Top-shelf podcast about sales and relationship-building

Mo is my go-to when it comes to B2B sales advice, so it's no shocker that his podcast on the topic is amazing. He shares invaluable insights into building and growing client relationships in each episode in a way that is relatable to anyone whose livelihood is rooted in relationship building ... so not just a podcast for salespeople, but also entrepreneurs, marketers, founders, etc. Very accessible and actionable advice in every episode I've listened to.

Mo is the Jedi of professional services business development. He has tremendous knowledge and wisdom and shares it in a compelling and caring manner and he has many professionals and firms, including mine. When Mo says something, it’s worth listening to. His Snowball System book is the manual and this podcast is the needed continuous bite size nuggets.

Kyle Farris ,

Mo is a Great Conversationalist

Mo has great facilitation skills that come out fantastically in the interview context. He has a way of provoking information from his guest, synthesizing it with his expertise, and offering keen insights to help just about anyone take themselves to the next level. I look forward to future episodes!
