  • Get to the point

    Literally said the same thing for the first 8 minutes about net new customers. He’s speaking on increasing top line revenue and if I’m a buyer listening to this guy sell, I’d interrupt and end the call. Snooze fest.

  • More Product Content Please

    I appreciate the content and have been learning a lot from the interviews and perspectives shared. It would be great to hear more Product, Marketing, and Support interviews. The show over-indexes on the CRO/Sales side currently.
