Plan in Pipeline to Build Statue of UK Tennis Icon Andy Murray in Wimbledon: BBC

Here's a question that'll make your blood boil: Why do most sales leaders spend their pipeline reviews asking about dollar amounts and close dates while completely ignoring whether their reps actually have real deals? That's the brutal reality I see in sales organizations every single day. Leaders are obsessing over MEDIC, BANT, and other qualification frameworks while their pipelines are stuffed with dead deals that will never close. Meanwhile, their forecasts are consistently wrong, deals keep getting pushed, and reps are burning time on opportunities that died months ago. If you're nodding your head right now, you're not alone. Focusing on surface-level qualification instead of true deal engagement is one of the most backward approaches to pipeline management I see today, and it's costing companies millions in missed forecasts. The Qualification Theater Problem: When Frameworks Become Fantasy Remember when everyone thought MEDIC and BANT were the holy grail of qualification? Sales leaders everywhere started drilling reps on budgets, authority, need, and timing like they were conducting a police interrogation. But here's what actually happens: Reps learn to check the boxes without understanding whether they have a real deal. They'll tell you they've qualified the budget, but they're talking to someone who has to "go talk to the boss." They'll say there's urgency and timing, but the prospect is waiting to hire an executive in a completely different department before making a decision. Traditional qualification frameworks are the opposite of real pipeline inspection. They're vanity metrics disguised as sales rigor. Here's the brutal truth: You can have a deal that checks every qualification box and still have a 2% chance of closing. Meanwhile, a deal that looks "unqualified" on paper might be ready to close tomorrow because the right stakeholders are engaged and moving forward. Why Most Pipeline Reviews Are Theater, Not Strategy The reason most sales leaders run terrible pipeline reviews is because it's easy. It requires zero investment in actual deal coaching, stakeholder analysis, or strategic thinking. Think about it: It's much easier to ask, "What's the budget?" than it is to dig into whether the decision-maker actually sees value in solving this problem. But here's what happens when you manage this way: You end up with pipelines full of zombie deals that look good on paper but will never close. Your reps get comfortable keeping deals in the pipeline because they've "qualified" them. Your forecasts become fiction because you're counting revenue from prospects who aren't actually buying. What Actually Matters: The One Question That Reveals Everything Instead of obsessing over qualification checklists, elite sales leaders focus on the one metric that actually predicts deal success: What's the next step? This isn't just another question—it's the ultimate deal quality detector. Here's why: Dead deals have no next steps. When a rep says, "They're going on vacation, so I'll call them in a few weeks," that deal is dead. When they say, "They told me to call back in a month," that's not a pipeline deal—that's a prospect. Real deals have committed next steps. When a rep says, "We're doing a technical demo with their IT team on Friday, and the CFO specifically asked to see ROI projections by Tuesday," that's a deal with momentum. Engaged prospects match your effort. If you're doing all the work—sending proposals, scheduling calls, following up—while they're giving you vague responses, you don't have a deal. You have a prospect who's being polite. The Three-Question Pipeline Inspection System When I'm inspecting pipeline quality, I use a simple three-question framework that reveals everything: 1. What's the Next Step? This is the deal-killer question. If there's no specific, committed next step with a date and stakeholders involved, the deal is stalled or dead. Period. 2.

Today's young workers are rethinking what makes a good job. A new Resume Builder survey finds that more than a third of Gen Z college grads are working in or plan to enter the trades or other skilled blue-collar jobs. Many say they're seeking relief from rising student debt, and practical roles less affected by AI, including electrical work, plumbing, welding, veterinary care and EMT roles. We talk to workforce experts and members of Gen Z about the forces driving this shift, and what it means to build a future-proof career with your hands.

https://teachhoops.com/ The landscape of amateur athletics, particularly at the collegiate level and increasingly in high school, has been irrevocably altered by the advent of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals. What was once an aspirational journey driven primarily by passion for the game, academic opportunity, and the dream of professional sports, is now intertwined with significant financial incentives. This episode delves into the complex and often controversial world of NIL, specifically exploring the growing concern that these deals are, in effect, "pricing out" a segment of tomorrow's athletes. We'll examine how NIL, while designed to allow athletes to profit from their own personal brand, has quickly evolved into a powerful recruiting tool and a de facto free agency system within college sports. This has created a dynamic where lucrative deals, often facilitated by "collectives" of wealthy boosters, are becoming a key differentiator in attracting top talent. We'll discuss the impact this has on parity and competitive balance, as programs with deeper pockets and more active donor bases can seemingly offer more enticing financial packages, potentially leaving less resourced schools at a significant disadvantage in the race for elite recruits. Beyond the collegiate realm, we'll explore the ripple effects extending into high school sports. While rules vary by state (Wisconsin, for instance, has recently allowed high school NIL deals with some restrictions), the growing presence of money in the equation can create new pressures and a shift in priorities for young athletes. Is the focus moving from fundamental skill development, teamwork, and academic achievement to brand building and securing early financial opportunities? We'll discuss the potential for exploitation, the widening gap between athletes with marketability and those without, and the ethical dilemmas of introducing professional-level financial considerations to athletes who are still developing, both on and off the field. Join us as we question whether the promise of NIL is creating a future where athletic opportunity becomes less about talent and dedication, and more about who can afford to play the game.

Writing and publishing might feel like individual, behind-the-scenes tasks. But what if your ability to lead in academia starts with how you show up for your own writing? In this episode, I discuss why taking control of your writing and publishing is not merely about checking off boxes for tenure or seeking validation. It's about developing the leadership skills necessary for success in academia—regardless of whether you have an official title. I examine how consistently committing to your writing fosters self-trust, boosts confidence, clarifies decision-making, and enhances project management skills—all of which are crucial for effective leadership. Regardless of your administrative position, your capacity to lead yourself is what truly defines you as a leader in academia. Tune in to discover why academic leadership extends beyond administrative roles. If you're looking to grow both as a scholar and a leader, this episode will provide you with a powerful new perspective on your writing practice. For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.

From GTM Live:This week on GTM Live, Carolyn sits down with Megan Bowen, CEO of Refine Labs, to unpack why so many B2B companies are pouring budget into paid media, and still missing revenue targets.They break down what's really going wrong: not too much paid media, but too much spend on a strategy that doesn't convert. Pipeline is down. Revenue is down. And yet, the response is often to spend more, not better.You'll hear why performance marketing often fails to deliver real outcomes, how misaligned KPIs drive bad decisions, and what separates newer, agile companies from legacy players still running outdated GTM playbooks.Megan shares insights from working with dozens of growth-stage companies and how leadership mindset, speed of iteration, and willingness to challenge old assumptions can make or break your demand strategy.If you've been trying to defend paid spend, or wondering why results are flat despite doing “all the right things”, this episode is for you.Key topics in this episode:Why paid media often fails to convert to pipeline or revenueThe difference between new-school and old-school GTM teamsWhy optimizing for MQLs leads to the wrong outcomesHow to rethink measurement for real demand captureWhat high-performing growth teams do differentlyThis episode is powered by ⁠⁠Passetto⁠⁠.

Episode Info After a series of conferences where I saw some sales tactics that were having the opposite effect from what the person employing them would have wanted, I thought I'd use an episode to share some of the advice I give to companies I've advised over the years. It's informed by my direct experience having been an executive at insurance companies who got sold to, and running the sales function for a B2B SaaS insurtech solution provider. Hopefully this is valuable to anyone trying to sell into the insurance industry (and to those of us on the receiving end of those sales efforts!). Episode Summary This episode provides insights into effective sales and networking strategies for those selling to insurance companies. It challenges conventional sales tactics and emphasizes the importance of personalized and informed approaches. Key Points: Personalized Outreach: Avoid blanket approaches like mass emails or messages. Instead, invest time in understanding if the recipient is a genuine prospect. Tailor your messages to address specific needs and demonstrate genuine interest. Challenges with Conventional Tactics: Many sales playbooks advocate for reaching out to everyone, but this often leads to brand damage and wasted efforts. The video argues that the insurance industry requires a different approach due to its unique nature. Effective Networking: Utilize platforms like LinkedIn for meaningful connections rather than relying solely on event apps, which are often underutilized. Be mindful of social etiquette, such as not interrupting ongoing conversations or meetings. Building Relationships: Focus on being informed and culturally aware to foster genuine relationships. The goal is to reach a point where the prospect feels understood and sees you as a potential solution to their challenges. Practical Advice: Spend a few moments researching potential clients to ensure they are the right fit. Be upfront about your intentions to avoid wasting time on both sides.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several topics, including an examination of the (mostly lousy) Carolina Panthers to Buffalo Bills pipeline since Sean McDermott came to Buffalo in 2017.The Bills have obviously been very good during the McDermott/Brandon Beane tenure through this point, making the playoffs all but one year (2018) and have won the AFC east the past five seasons. There's a lot of reasons for their success, but upon examination the constant Panthers to Bills pipeline isn't really among them. The Bills have had 19 players come over from Carolina that played for the Panthers while McDermott was still there. The guys go through and it becomes apparent quickly that the vast majority of those players stunk as Bills. Among them discusses is Star Lotulelei, Vernon Butler, Kelvin Benjamin, AJ Klein and Mike Tolbert. There's also five other players who spent at least two seasons with Carolina after McDermott was gone and ended up with the Bills after and they really weren't much better.Also, James Cook reported to and participated fully in minicamp last week, which was a pleasant shock to many people including Joe, who just last week predicted Cook wouldn't play for Buffalo until Week eight. They discuss the hot topic that's been at or near the top of Bills storylines all season that seemingly got put to bed.Also, who's the third best quarterback in Bills history after Jim Kelly and Josh Allen? That plus Joe's Mt. Flushmore of worst fathers, Patrick's True or False segment and much more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.
