Author of The Sales MBA. Dominant Themes in the Sales Process Sales Strategist - the company's competitive position and its market facing position. Change Agent – the organizational dynamics, happening within the company, at any given time. Decision Architect – interpersonal (human psychology) and how that affects your interactions with that prospect. Strategist: Precise understanding of where this company competes and how do they win. Being able to make the connection between your product and how it benefits your prospect. Research is critical to be able to have these conversations. Change Agent: Being able to find the catalyst to create transformation. Where is the energy in this organization? How can you feed the energy with your product or service? Decision Architect: Behavioral economics play a large part in closing the sale. Limited by the attention of the buyer. Obtain the commitment of the buyer. Motivate the buyer to act or move forward with your product. Use of influence levers (scarcity, social proof, etc.) Change your mindset: How do you per sieve yourself? Are you likeable, are your trustworthy?

Referencing the most important research and a wide assortment of field experiences, The Sales MBA explains how companies compete, how organizations evolve, and how people decide. Whether you sell to companies or lead others who do, this book will strengthen your credibility as a trusted advisor.

Teaching and coaching enterprise sales reps to become HIGH-PERFORMING enterprise sales reps is difficult–to say the least. There are many variables to reaching greatness that sales leaders and coaches need to navigate. Is a rep struggling because she doesn't understand the value proposition well enough? Is a rep struggling because he's in a new territory and simply hasn't generated enough activity? Is your go-to-market strategy flawed? The potential roadblocks that can prevent success are overwhelming and endless. With all the various reasons and possible impediments to success, wouldn't it be nice if someone were to distill the complexity of true enterprise sales down to just a few pillars that can be coached and repeated—regardless of which sales methodology you're using? Well, that's what my latest podcast guest, Douglas Cole, Enterprise Sales Leader at LinkedIn, achieved in his new book, The Sales MBA–How to Influence Corporate Buyers. In this episode you'll not only hear when and how to incorporate these core pillars of successful enterprise sales, but you'll also hear him talk about the mental shift CRUCIAL to mastering it all.

When it comes to strategic selling, especially in the enterprise space, the expectations placed on the sales person to drive tangible value and differentiation have never been higher. The sellers who are able to think differently about their customer, challenge their own organisation to think differently, and begin to focus their attention on the customer's customer and what problems need to be solved, are the ones who will eventually win, and be known as true trusted advisors. In today's episode, I enjoyed a fantastic conversation with Douglas Cole, the author of the brand new book 'The Sales MBA - How To Influence Corporate Buyers' around the 3 core pillars that exceptional sales leaders and their teams excel at in today's market.

Douglas Coles' new book The Sales MBA focuses on the mindset angle of sales, which is often less talked about but more important for top performers. Contrary to many predictions, there is a growing demand for highly skilled sales jobs in the modern economy. Whether you're a salesperson or a knowledge worker, knowing how to influence corporate buyers has become a critical skill. But most sales books tend to be narrow and prescriptive. They focus only on tactics and tools rather than principles and mindset that can re-define your approach. This is a different kind of sales book. In plain and direct language, the author shows what it means to become a Strategist, a Change Agent, and a Decision Architect. Referencing the most crucial research and a wide assortment of field experiences, The Sales MBA explains how companies compete, how organizations evolve, and how people decide. Whether you sell to companies or lead others who do, this book will strengthen your credibility as a trusted advisor. In this interview, Douglas Cole simplifies complex concepts to make them more easily understood. He emphasizes the importance of clarity in business, arguing that it is essential for creating a clear strategy and for salespeople to position themselves as trusted advisors. Cole argues that the modern seller must bring a higher level of skill and expertise to the buying discussion to be taken seriously by corporate buyers. Ultimately, Cole provides valuable insights for anyone in business who wants to improve their clarity and understanding of the mindset angle of sales.
Douglas Cole, enterprise sales leader at LinkedIn Sales Solutions, says changing trends in B2B customers, connection and workplace culture are key areas today's sales leaders should be focused on. In this podcast episode, we dive deeper into points he covered in an article he wrote.

This interview was recorded a little under a month ago, two days before the Steve Jackson interview, and was very much a joy to record. My guest is just about the most hard-working and consistent RPG writer I have ever known and he's a genuine inspiration to me. Douglas H. Cole is the owner of Gaming Ballistic, the first licensed third-party publisher for the Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game and The Fantasy Trip, working in support of Steve Jackson Games' popular roleplaying games. If there was one person on a Top 10 list of adventure writers I would like to talk to, this guy would be on it. Yes, he writes for GURPS but that's not the essence of this interview. Listen in and see what you can learn about writing adventures.

First of a couple of interviews I've managed to record over the past week or so, this one with Doug Cole of Gaming Ballistic is on the topic of why GURPS is a game worth looking at and what the Dungeon Fantasy RPG offers the curious onlooker. Doug creates licensed products for both the DFRPG and The Fantasy Trip, giving us an excellent insight into the world of gaming with 3d6 that is hard to get from the outside. Many thanks to Doug for coming back for a second chat! Oh, and big thanks to Spencer (aka Free Thrall) for the rather... interesting call-in that leads the episode.

Douglas H. Cole has been roleplaying since 1981, starting with the Holmes Basic Box and AD&D, and has been playing GURPS since 1988. Living near Minneapolis, Doug is known as a longtime GURPS playtester, as a regular contributor to Pyramid magazine, and as the author of GURPS Martial Arts: Technical Grappling. Doug is an R&D manager for a major hard-disc-drive company and also the mastermind of Gaming Ballistic, his own company. Creator of Hall of Judgment, the first licensed third-party content for the Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game, and also the Dragon Heresy Roleplaying Game based on the 5th Edition SRD, he is a rising star in the hobby community. For my money, Douglas has provided the best supplement for any D&D-type game in the form of Dungeon Grappling - a set of rules designed to bring to life the most common and heroic struggles in literature.

Pittsburgh's Garter Shake brings to mind power feminist voices of rock music's past presented for a modern world. The band features 3 vocalists, including guitars Jenn Jannon-Fisher. Well… kind of. “I'm more of a screamer [laughs]… In Garter Shake, Becki is the main vocalist and is the front person. Maura, our bassist is this beautiful harmonizer and back up vocalist. Then I come in with this screaming that my bandmates call “chatty bratty” vocal style [laughs], so that's what I bring.” Jenn Jannon-Fisher partnered with Becki Gallagher of Lofi Delphi to write songs that just happen to have political and feminist themes, and are already inspiring younger listeners and their parents. This was evident after they opened for Shonen Knife, Jenn was approached by a couple after the gig. “They were like ‘Oh my gosh! You guys were amazing! I have to take my teenage daughter to come see you guys!' And that was the week before it was our release show and they came! The mom came and she brought her daughter and 2 or 3 of her daughter's friends. It was really cool that a parent was like ‘My kid needs a role model like this wild group of women singing about misogyny' [laughs]” Garter Shake's new EP “Dirty Hair” is out now.
