FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Multi Single-Threading: After a big team meeting, send individual follow-up messages to key stakeholders. This helps build relationships without asking for anything, creating future points of contact. Daily Pipeline Review: Every day, look at your deals and think of specific actions to increase your chances of winning, maintaining daily momentum across opportunities. Win One Stakeholder at a Time: Focus on winning over stakeholders one by one at different stages—manager during discovery, director during the demo, and VP at the big team meeting. Structured Sales Cycle: Brian’s sales process follows a clear path: discovery, demo, big team demo, pilot, and finally commercial negotiation.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS If you feel like you have leverage in a deal, but haven't gotten in front of the right stakeholders to progress the deal, use that as a non-negotiable to begin negotiations Sit down and write down your own "Gives" and "Gets" that you can trade with your buyer during a sales cycle Someone liking your offering does not make them an effective champion, ask questions like "Is {title} aware of these conversations?" to test them When trying to get access to power use labelling statements like "I often hear {title} likes to weigh in, is that the same for you?"

ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Empower your reps with a clear discount menu, outlining what’s approved for negotiations. Include things like signing during the trial, committing to case studies, or G2 reviews to speed up late-stage deals. Before taking over a team or segment, review call recordings and data like sales cycle length and ACV to identify where you can have the biggest impact. Assess the spacing between sales calls and find opportunities to consolidate steps or reduce gaps to shorten the sales cycle. Introduce a structured proof of concept (POC) with three defined calls over 14 days, dictating trial activities and clear exit criteria for smoother decision-making.

ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Instead of focusing on quantifying pain, ask deeper questions about the problem’s origins and previous solutions, this will naturally reveal the impact Find out if the problem is known and cared about across the company or just by one person Ask easy, non-pushy questions like “Why is that a problem?” to get the prospect to share the impact without feeling pressured Position involving decision-makers as beneficial for them, making it easier to get in front of power PATH TO PRESIDENT’S CLUB Founder @ DiscoveryCoach.io Sales Enablement Manager @ AlphaSense Lead Revenue Enablement Manager @ CB Insights Senior Sales Training Manager @ CB Insights RESOURCES DISCUSSED Join our weekly newsletter Things you can steal

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS When you are trying to clone that first rep, make sure that you don’t confuse personality with skill set. Your customers have the answers. Talk to your customers. Do not do the things that you're horrible at. Hire for the things that are not your strengths. Invest your time in enablement. You and your reps should track how you win each deal for ongoing development.
