#456 - How to Hire Reps Who Actually Know How to Sell | Andrew Johnston | 30MPC Hall of Fame

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS The best product doesn’t always win — the team that has the most conversations with customers, investors, and partners does. Every week — test an industry, persona, and problem in your early-stage outbound. Over 12 weeks, you need to rip through 12 market segments to find your ICP. Play laptop closed! See how long you can go without opening your demo to sell a deal. Don’t worry about the two, three, or four-year deals. Win customers in year one, and if your product is right, you’ll keep them in year two and beyond.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Use the last 20 minutes of your workday to plan for the day ahead. Map out your calls, emails, and time blocks. Default to saying no. Don't let random requests distract you from generating revenue. Match your activity to your energy level. If you're high energy in the afternoons, use that time to cold call! Avoid interruptions by blocking your time in one-hour increments. The non-urgent requests can wait until the top of the hour.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Leverage the power of 7-38-55: 7 percent of meaning is communicated through words, 38 percent through tone, and 55 percent through body language. Encourage friction in your sales cycle; it means that your customer is engaged. When showing a demo, tell your customers what you're gonna show, show 'em, then tell them what you showed.
