Women Your Mother Warned You About
Business:Careers
Today Gina and Susanna welcome Stu Heinecke back to the show! Stu is an author, speaker, a WSJ cartoonist, and is known as 'The father of contact marketing.' He will also be presenting at this year's Outbound Conference.
He starts with the subject of his latest book, How To Grow Your Business Like a Weed, and how people in business and sales need to strive to act more like a weed. Persistent, relentless, adaptable, overtaking territory, probing every possibility to take root and grow. How are weeds able to do this? Stu explains that it’s because they have many unfair advantages, and he shows you how you can discover your unique unfair advantages in order to leverage them.
He continues giving priceless advice on how to stand out, how to get any meeting, humanizing yourself, making yourself irresistible to potential clients, the superpower of engaging both the right and left side of your brain, and using “yes and” to pivot out of anything that’s thrown at you.

More About Susanna
After graduating from Cambridge University in Music and Education, Susanna took her first sales role selling advertising space on websites.
She’s always been intrigued by the unfair negative stigma associated with sales and the way that after their initial excitement to work in sales, people will do everything they can to avoid actual prospecting.
With 14 years of experience in recruitment, Susanna challenges this mindset through her successful business sourcing sales professionals into recruitment roles.
Susanna decided to become a Sales Gravy Master Trainer because Sales Gravy’s vision matches her own beliefs and values.
She is committed to providing excellence and dedication to all of her trainees so that they can achieve their goals and succeed in sales.
