QUOTES

03:02 "I've always been a big believer in people and relationship creation, but also process. How can I best execute process and so if I can figure out the best we're doing and I look to these metrics that will ultimately lead to me getting paid."

07:54 "Being able to talk to sales people all over the world, it's amazing to me how many different approaches do work. And frankly, I think that's why team selling or even leveraging different colleagues or different perspectives as your are building your sales process."

10:16 "The best elite sellers like yourself know that you never stop learning in sales. There's gonna be new ways of doing things, new technology, new things that you can do to help you do your job better. New ways to figure out what is the best way to approach this deal or this buying team or team selling."

14:17 "You gotta make sure that you take strategic risks in your career and I've taken some that didn't pan out. But I learned a heck of a lot from them, and every one of them led me to where I am today. I have zero regrets and I'm truly living my dream."

18:14 "You look back and kind of do a post mortem on that deal, and you look at what went wrong and get feedback from the customer. Go to them and say like, 'hey I understand you went this direction and I respect that, I'd love to just sit down and help me understand how we could have supported better.'"
