Proactive Prospecting
The show is kicked off with Tibor explaining that any leads that come in from marketing, that are legitimately qualified should be seen as a bonus rather than the norm.
“Things become easier if you’re the first or second one in” – Tibor Shanto
Tibor then shares that he thinks most salespeople perhaps play it a little safe in the way that they prospect.
“There should be an expectation that we’re going to practice [sales skills] everyday” – Tibor Shanto
The show is wrapped up with the guys diving into sales habits and how they’re often the thing that separates the A from the B players within a sales team.
