Too many sellers think being friendly is enough. It isn't. If the customer only hears from you when it's renewal time or when there's something new to flog, you're not a partner - you're a vendor.   And vendors are easy to replace.   In this episode, the focus is on what it really takes to build genuine, lasting relationships in complex B2B sales.   Relationships that win repeat business, reduce price pressure, and create referral engines that power long-term success.   What's Covered   ·        Why most sellers confuse being friendly with actually building trust   ·        Five behaviours that deepen long-term customer relationships: o   Solve, don't sell o   Stay relevant between deals o   Deliver on promises o   Create win-win outcomes o   Celebrate customer success   ·    The STAIRS model – six practical ways to stay visible and valuable after the           initial deal is done:   o   S – Social: Stay active where your clients are o   T – Thanks: Small acts of recognition go a long way o   A – Ask: Show genuine curiosity and ask for feedback o   I – Invite: Extend opportunities, don't wait for them to come to you o   R – Review: Focus on value, not just activity o   S – Share: Provide insights, trends and benchmarks to help clients succeed   This Week's Action Step   Take the STAIRS model and apply it straight away. Ask:   Where can you engage socially? Who deserves a thank you? What's changed in a client's world recently? What can you offer that adds value now? When's your next meaningful review? What insight can you share today?   Small, consistent actions lead to bigger, better, longer-lasting partnerships.   Resources: Fred's books: Selling Through Partnering Skills Hybrid Selling Ethical Selling   Connect with Fred on LinkedIn to share your thoughts and hear more. https://linktr.ee/fredcopestake   Take the  Collaborative Selling Scorecard https://collaborativeselling.scoreapp.com/   Watch this episode on YouTube https://bit.ly/44UGo72

In this episode of Systems Simplified, Adi Klevit interviews Caryn Kopp to discuss the systems behind successful sales prospecting and outreach. Caryn shares how her Door Opener® service helps companies land meetings with hard-to-reach decision-makers and explains the messaging and hiring systems that make her process repeatable and scalable.

QBRs are broken- here's how to fix them.   In this episode, we challenge the traditional Quarterly Business Review and introduce a smarter alternative: the Quarterly Value Review.   If your customer reviews are little more than status updates and activity reports, you're missing a huge opportunity to demonstrate value and grow the relationship.   You'll learn:   • Why QBRs often fail to deliver strategic value - and how to fix that • The 5-part framework for running high-impact QVRs that drive renewals and upsells • How to shift the focus from tasks completed to business outcomes delivered • What kind of insights customers really care about (hint: it's not your activity log) • The future-focused questions that position you as a partner, not just a provider   You'll also hear how simple visual storytelling and clear next steps can transform a routine meeting into a powerful growth lever.   This episode is about turning customer reviews into strategic conversations that matter. Less reporting. More insight. Real value.   Expect practical advice and one clear action step you can apply in your next account review.   When you review with purpose, you partner for growth.

In today's rapidly evolving sales landscape, lead generation remains a top priority for Chief Revenue Officers and sales leaders. But with the rise of AI, changing buyer behaviors, and an overwhelming array of tools and technologies, how can sales teams effectively navigate this complex terrain? In this episode of the Modern Selling Podcast, I sit down with Zach Jones, Chief Revenue Officer at TechnologyAdvice, to explore the cutting-edge strategies and tools that are reshaping the lead generation game. With over a decade of experience in scaling sales teams and driving revenue growth, Zach offers invaluable insights into the current state of B2B sales and marketing. Adapting to the New B2B Buyer Journey One of the most significant shifts we discuss is the changing nature of the B2B buyer journey. Zach highlights that: 75% of the buyer journey now happens before someone wants to talk to sales 86% of buyers start with a shortlist of vendors 92% of purchases come from that initial shortlist This means that awareness and early education are more critical than ever. Sales and marketing teams need to focus on getting on that shortlist through strategic content placement and engagement across various channels. The Rise of AI in Sales and Marketing Artificial Intelligence is not just a buzzword – it's reshaping how we approach lead generation and engagement. Zach shares eye-opening statistic: There's been a 240% increase in page views from ChatGPT to their websites since January This shift towards AI-driven content creation and research is changing how buyers find and evaluate vendors. Sales teams need to adapt their strategies to ensure they're visible and relevant in this new AI-powered landscape. From Funnel to Rooms: A New Perspective on Lead Nurturing Zach introduces an interesting concept of thinking about lead nurturing not as a funnel, but as two rooms: Prospects who are ready to talk to a vendor Prospects who are not ready The key is figuring out how to move prospects from the "not ready" room to the "ready" room. This approach requires a more dynamic and personalized marketing strategy, leveraging AI and intent data to create tailored experiences for each prospect. Actionable Takeaways for Sales Leaders Experiment with new technologies and strategies – don't be afraid to break things Focus on niching down and segmenting your audience for more personalized outreach Leverage AI tools to level the playing field and enhance your team's capabilities Align your sales and marketing strategies based on your target market and how they buy Consider implementing an Account-Based Experience (ABX) approach for enterprise sales As the B2B sales landscape continues to evolve, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. By embracing new technologies, focusing on personalization, and adapting to changing buyer behaviors, sales teams can position themselves for success in this dynamic environment. Timestamped Summary of this Episode: 00:00:00 The Rise of AI in Content Creation AI tools like ChatGPT are becoming increasingly popular for content creation and personalization. Marketers are focusing on delivering more relevant, timely messages to smaller, engaged audiences rather than high volume outreach. The shift towards AI-driven personalization is changing how companies approach lead generation and engagement. 00:01:07 Introducing Zach Jones: CRO of TechnologyAdvice Zach Jones, Chief Revenue Officer at TechnologyAdvice, shares his background and the company's role in connecting tech marketers with B2B buyers. TechnologyAdvice operates multiple digital media properties and offers services like content creation, digital advertising, lead generation, and buyer intent intelligence.  00:03:27 From Punk Pop to B2B Sales: Zach's Surprising Past Zach reveals his unexpected background as the frontman of a punk pop band in college. This experience, while not impressing his future wife, showcases Zach's diverse background before entering the B2B sales and marketing world. 00:05:19 Evolving Lead Generation Landscape The lead generation landscape is shifting due to economic changes and emerging technologies. Key trends include niching down to target smaller, engaged audiences, leveraging AI for personalization, and adapting to the changing demographics of B2B buyers, with millennials and Gen Z now dominating. 00:08:18 Adapting to Modern Buyer Journeys Marketing and sales teams are adapting to new buyer journeys by embracing diverse media channels like podcasts, YouTube, and newsletters. The focus is on meeting buyers where they are and providing relevant content throughout their decision-making process, rather than relying solely on traditional lead generation methods. 00:10:11 Effective Sales and Marketing Tools While some companies are cutting back on tools, certain platforms like Sixth Sense and ZoomInfo continue to deliver ROI. The trend is moving towards efficiency and proven value rather than accumulating multiple tools. New opportunities in forums, Reddit, and connected TV are emerging as ways to engage buyers. 00:12:50 Key Metrics for Evaluating Tools CROs should prioritize usage and adoption rates when evaluating tools. Pipeline generation and productivity improvements are also crucial metrics. The focus should be on how tools increase efficiency and drive tangible results rather than just adding more features. 00:17:37 Intent Data and Personalized Engagement Leveraging intent data and behavioral analytics is crucial for identifying and engaging high-potential leads early in the buyer's journey. TechnologyAdvice is developing an AI-driven "intent to lead" model that creates personalized, timely outreach based on prospect behavior across their ecosystem. 00:32:40 Rethinking the Sales Funnel The traditional sales funnel concept is evolving into a two-room model: prospects are either ready to talk to a vendor or they're not. The focus is on moving prospects from "not ready" to "ready" through personalized, dynamic marketing across various channels and touchpoints. 00:36:42 Tailoring Strategies to Audiences and Verticals There's no one-size-fits-all approach to sales and marketing strategies. Leaders must consider factors like product type, sales motion, and target market to determine the most effective channels and tactics. Account-based experience (ABX) is becoming increasingly important for enterprise sales. 00:40:18 Advice for CROs: Experiment and Personalize CROs should focus on testing new approaches, leveraging AI, and personalizing experiences for target accounts. The key is to be willing to experiment, niche down, and use available tools effectively to stand out in a competitive landscape.

Confidence turns into credibility. Credibility turns into enthusiasm. That turns into passion, and passion turns into persuasion. But the foundation is knowledge.""The urgency, lack of champions—if sellers are struggling, go back to your metrics. Where are you with your metrics?""Consultative selling is not just about providing solutions, but deeply understanding the pain points and creating value.""You can either do this, separate yourself and set yourself up for the future, or you're going to end up working for someone that did it.""Fires are going to happen.

In this episode, Dave breaks down his personal strategy and process for launching new products on Amazon, detailing a four-stage approach that spans from the first few weeks after launch to ongoing strategies for maintaining sales and optimizing listings. We talk about why its important to have a pricing strategy and an ACOS goal, to have only exact match turned on, and to have reviews as soon as possible.    Struggling with tariffs? Unsure about upcoming changes? Let's talk! With Portless, you only pay tariffs after your customers pay you – so your cash always moves faster than your costs. Schedule a risk assessment and leverage tariff deferment today. All new customers get $1,000 to reinvest in their business.   Launching a product isn't as crazy as it used to be.    Back in the 2010s, you could put up anything on Amazon and it would do huge numbers.    But today, its a different story.    You have to have enough reviews for your product and a low price to stand out from the competition at the minimum.    How do you get this all done? More importantly, what else can I do to guarantee success?    Here's the ultimate 3 month launch plan that we incorporate in our businesses for each new product we launch.    Takeaways In the first few weeks of launch, price your product 40% lower to attract buyers. Focus on exact targeting for PPC in early stages. Send your products into Amazon Vine to get reviews early. Gradually increase prices; Amazon hates when you increase prices abruptly. Utilize promotions based on how competitive your product category is. Auto campaigns help identify effective keywords that you can eventually add to your manual keywords. Aim for 30+ reviews for basic social proof. Incorporate top keywords into product imagery. If you get a lot of bad reviews, consider relaunching your product. Continuously improve your product based on customer feedback.

Send us a textIn this powerhouse episode of Mastering Modern Selling, Brandon Lee, Tom Burton, and Carson Heady are joined by JD Miller, a seasoned sales executive turned private equity advisor. With six successful exits under his belt, JD brings a rare blend of operational insight and boardroom savvy. The discussion centers on how private equity firms evaluate and scale their portfolio companies—especially in the sales and marketing domains—and what sales leaders can do today to thrive in that high-expectation environment.Repeatability Is the Foundation of Scale JD highlights that scaling isn't just about hiring more reps, it's about implementing repeatable, measurable systems. When transitioning from a founder-led sales model to a broader team, companies need to get critical knowledge out of leaders' heads and into structured playbooks. This is essential when growing from five sellers to two hundred. Without repeatable processes, scale isn't sustainable.Sales Leadership Must Be Fluent in Data Today's top CROs are expected to lead with data. Whether through deep CRM analysis, conversation intelligence, or funnel metrics, modern sales leaders need to understand how to break down growth targets into tactical, trackable levers. JD emphasized the need for CROs to either personally embrace analytics or work closely with RevOps to translate insights into strategy.“SMarketing”: Sales and Marketing as a Single Engine JD introduced the concept of "SMarketing", a true merger of sales and marketing into one go-to-market function. He shared real-world examples of aligning revenue goals with both teams' activities and discussed how metrics like sales velocity can guide joint decision-making.Bi-weekly check-ins and shared accountability are critical to keeping both teams rowing in the same direction.Messaging for the Modern Buyer Buyers today expect a well-informed, highly personalized approach. JD stressed the importance of showing up with a point of view rooted in research, data, and empathy. In a volatile economy, messaging must pivot from “growth at all costs” to helping buyers reduce risk and improve efficiency. Sales and marketing alignment ensures these themes are consistent across every touchpoint.Performance Plans: Tools for Growth, Not Punishment In JD's view, performance improvement plans should be part of every employee's journey, not a disciplinary action. He advocates for quarterly development conversations that blend short-term performance goals with long-term career aspirations. JD Miller's episode is a masterclass in bridging strategy and execution in modern selling. Whether you're a CRO in a high-growth startup, a founder looking for investment, or a marketer working closely with sales, the principles JD shares can redefine how you scale. By focusing on repeatable systems, cross-functional alignment, and buyer-centric messaging, you can transform your sales motion into an engine that attracts not only customers, but also investors.

Sales is an endless grind when conversations go nowhere and promising leads vanish without a trace. It's frustrating to put in the effort only to see minimal results, leaving you wondering if the problem is the market, the pitch, or something deeper.

“I believe that wherever there is mastery, coaching is occurring, and whenever coaching is done, mastery will be the outcome.” – Andrea Lee Check Out These Highlights:  Part of the deal for clients that hire me is that there has to be a coaching component after we train the employees. Suppose the organization has a coaching program, great. If not, I can share my program to help and support the change in behaviors the organization seeks, get the new behaviors and habits to stick, and ultimately grow sales because changing behaviors will always drive the numbers or results. Yet, I have found that most leaders—80%—feel that coaching is too hard, they are unsure how to do it, and they feel it's too time-consuming. The reality is that without coaching, we are wasting so much time, energy, and revenue growth. Showing up for your clients is not about grand gestures. It's about consistency, persistence, and respect in all your follow-ups, conversations, and outreach. There must be monthly detailed coaching to create this consistency and focus.
