Josh on the importance of having time to learn: "I said experience isn't an age thing. But there is simply no substitute for time. The more time you have, the more experience you can gain."
Josh's advice for new sellers to jumpstart their understanding of the job: "[As] part of your onboarding, tell your manager: 'Listen, all the training and enablement is great. But I need time speaking directly with customers.' And your job is not to sell here. Your job is to do some discovery. Learn from them."
Josh on why you need to try starting a business: "There are so many things that are generally business related that you can learn starting even the simplest business that translate into your sales career. Because at the end of the day, you want to be talking to executives. You want to be talking to senior-level people. They are thinking about their day to day and how to run the business. If you can speak to them in terms of how you run a business, it's gonna help you connect to them on a better level."
