    S2E8: Third Time’s The Charm | Sahil Mansuri (Founder & CEO of Bravado)

    Sahil Mansuri is an elite software sales executive, startup founder and CEO, investor, and evangelist for sales as a professional career choice. His passion for sales, intelligence, and work ethic allowed him to achieve extraordinary levels of professional sales success. In his entire sales career, he has never missed an annual sales quota. He was the #1 sales rep for six years at multiple software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies; spent five years as a VP of sales at multiple SaaS companies, and has been the founder and CEO of an investor-backed startup for the past three years. While at the top of his professional game, his ego also swelled to epic proportions. It became such a problem that it resulted in him getting fired – twice – while he was the #1 sales rep.

He lives by the thought, “if you’re not getting better, you’re getting worse.” He’s developed disciplined and focused ways of ensuring he is always improving – ruthlessly prioritizing your time, getting clear on what matters to you, and removing people and obstacles from what matters to you. There are countless nuggets of wisdom from Sahil that will benefit you personally and professionally. Sahil is thoughtful, methodical, calm, and his stories are thought-provoking. Join us for this exciting episode with Sahil, Andrew, and Jeremy.
