buying time with execs who value their time low enough to be bought by bribes has never been a smart strategy. i’m sure it works in the SME space & where companies have so much funding they can fool themselves that the 6-month CAC is worth it, but no serious exec falls for this.
Thoughts on this offer? It's ballsy

Customers hate discovery. There is nothing in it for them, and it feels like another one of those calls. So we're changing how we teach it. It's coming in the new MEDDPICC Masterclass by MEDDICC: hubs.la/Q04pCpTS0 #MEDDIC #MEDDPICC #SalesTraining #SalesLeadership

this is the most UK thing ever... any politician who wasn't an imbecile would approach the platforms if this was a problem, and they'd invent a solution to solve it. Instead, our halfwit, moron politicians just look to ban things. pathetic and inept.

my 15yo has been selling on vinted for years... 100% 5-star feedback. it's a hobby to him. it's not about money; it's about him feeling like he has a business trust our government to step in to hinder the so-called victims, instead of doing something to stop the perps useless

The best salespeople are often punished by being promoted. We take their quota and hand them eight other people's, then say good luck. T5 teaches the leadership that promotion never did. Find out more: hubs.la/Q04p-jm70 #MEDDIC #MEDDPICC #SalesLeadership

Revenue is smoke. By the time you see it, the fire is already out. Coach the behaviors that close deals: Economic Buyer engaged, pain implicated, Champion activated. #MEDDIC #MEDDPICC #SalesLeadership #B2BSales

it's SO obvious that drivel like this is AI bots... i'm sure there are more sophisticated bots, but i feel like 50% of replies (at least) are like this... surely it's not complicated to create tech to silence this crap. only reason i can think is @elonmusk doesn't want to.

The biggest mistake AEs make trying to reach the Economic Buyer is doing it alone. Align seniority: bring in your manager or someone more senior to make the connection, before it's too late. Watch the full conversation: hubs.la/Q04BffYC0 #MEDDIC #MEDDPICC #EconomicBuyer

Build a commit culture by turning expectations into agreements said out loud. Expectations are vague and assumed, and when missed they create resentment. This is part of our T5 Sales Leadership Program. Find out more: hubs.la/Q04p-jm70 #MEDDIC #MEDDPICC #SalesLeadership
