People that are selling…Right now. People that are involved in deals...Right now.People that are learning sales by getting out there and taking action.
Each week we’ll talk to a B2B salesperson that had a great win.
Together we are all going to learn from it.

Learn about how they did their NEXT stepLearn about how they put together their proposal.Learn about how they created urgency.Learn about how they closed the deal.
