Key Quotes;

"Part of my job and probably the biggest part of my job is to identify new trends and opportunities to companies so that they can support their sales staff in increasing their performance by a couple of percent." 00:08:4600:09:00

"As a business owner, it's very easy to fall into that feast famine sales cycle where you end up with a lot of work and a lot of delivery at one point, and then you're too burned out, tired and overwhelmed to do any kind of business development." 00:26:4000:26:56

The Hidden Danger of Ignoring Sales Training: "Over 80% of people said that they wanted to increase their revenue in 2025, but there was such a high percentage of people who said that they don't invest in sales training, that they haven't historically allocated budget for sales training for themselves, and that they have not set a sales training budget for themselves in 2025." 00:35:5900:36:15

Investing in Success: "There is a big difference between, for me, investment and expense. And I think a lot of people as new business owners or business owners that have been in less than 5 years, look at investments like expenses. And so if you're thinking about any investments, whether it's sales training or anything else into your business next year, you need to be thinking not in terms of the initial cost, but in terms of what you think you're going to get back, what skills you're going to bring in." 00:40:2200:40:34

"Love Your Sales Process in 2025": "So in 2025, regardless of what else you do, you need to learn to love your sales process. You need to learn to put something in place that's going to work for you, for your business, for your capacity, for your personality, so that you can get the results that you want." 00:49:2600:49:42
