  • Authentic and useful

    This podcast is a goldmine for anyone in PreSales. Ramzi asks great questions and his relatable style and self-deprecating humor get his guests to open up. He started this podcast as a way to get mentors for his own career growth and it has blossomed into a force multiplier for the entire profession. Well done.

  • Feels like the presenter is asking questions about himself which is great as they are the type of questions we all ask ourselves. Also thankfully it's not one of those podcasts that have authors speaking about their new books every week.
