  • Stop trying to sell and become a great seller

    This is the one great insight that hit me right between the eyes. I need to stop “trying” to sell and actually become the great seller I can be. Understanding what it takes to be great in sales has long eluded me until I found this goldmine! The mindset I have developed by listening to this podcast has more than doubled my closing rate… plus the confidence I now project is filthy! Best sales pod out there.

Q: What are a few examples of some of the skill practice exercises that you write about?

TRP 351: Practicing Law at the Speed of Light with Dr. Larry Richard
Q: What are some of those attributes that you mentioned in your book, Larry?

TRP 350: Value Creation Through Strategic Alliances with Kyle Harkema
Q: What typically leads to a successful alliance in practice?
A well-defined joint value proposition, clear ownership of customer relationships, agreed decision frameworks, and ongoing measurement of behaviors and information flow rather than just revenue figures.
TRP 350: Value Creation Through Strategic Alliances with Kyle Harkema
Q: Should KPIs be discussed at the start of an alliance?
Yes, defining success together and identifying both leading health indicators and lagging outcomes helps ensure alignment and prevents drift as the alliance matures.
TRP 350: Value Creation Through Strategic Alliances with Kyle Harkema
Q: What could you give us in terms of a definition of an alliance or a strategic alliance between two or more professional organizations?
An alliance occurs when the combination creates something that neither side could efficiently create on its own, making it broader than the initial rationale and requiring a shared operating logic and behavioral alignment to make the value emerge.
