This is a must listen show for Salesforce ISVs. If you new or seasoned, Mike does an awesome job of interviewing the best in the business so we can all learn.
One of the best business podcasts I’ve listened to, especially if you work anywhere in the Salesforce ecosystem. I’ve come back to insights from Mike and his guests countless times to help navigate real GTM decisions, partnerships, and the nuances of building a business in the Salesforce world.
This is easily, hands-down the most valuable resource for any Salesforce partner. Mike pulls real, tactical insight out of every guest, not just war stories, but stuff you can start using tomorrow in your own GTM motion. Truly, there's no greater gift or resource for an ISV building in the Salesforce ecosystem.
Super thoughtful and insightful content that always comes with great knowledge nuggets. Highly recommend.
