Growing a cybersecurity company is rarely limited by a lack of people. More often, growth stalls because cyber sales execution, onboarding, forecasting, and leadership aren't keeping pace with the opportunity.

Hiring more sellers doesn't solve that.

Neither does chasing the latest go-to-market trend without a repeatable system for revenue growth.

The companies that consistently outperform their competitors build stronger cyber sales leadership, faster seller ramp times, more predictable revenue forecasting, healthier pipeline generation, and disciplined go-to-market execution. That's what this show explores.

The Cyber Go-To-Market Talk is a podcast for cybersecurity sales leaders, CROs, founders, CEOs, marketers, and revenue teams who want to improve cybersecurity sales performance and build more predictable revenue growth.

Cybersecurity sales training expert Andrew Monaghan talks with cybersecurity CROs, revenue leaders, sales executives, founders, and operators about the real work behind scaling sales teams, improving forecast accuracy, building revenue pipelines, onboarding cybersecurity sellers, creating demand, and executing cybersecurity sales strategy.

You'll hear practical lessons on cyber sales leadership, cybersecurity sales training, sales onboarding, revenue forecasting, pipeline quality, sales coaching, revenue operations, cybersecurity go-to-market strategy, and the systems that help cybersecurity companies grow faster.

Whether you're leading a revenue organization, building a cybersecurity sales team, or working to improve cyber sales performance, each episode is designed to help you make better decisions and execute with greater confidence.

Popular Episode Topics Include: Cyber Sales Leadership, Cybersecurity Sales Strategy, Cybersecurity Sales Performance, Sales Onboarding, Seller Ramp Time, Cybersecurity Sales Training, Sales Enablement, Revenue Forecasting, Sales Forecasting, Predictable Revenue Growth, Forecast Accuracy, Go-To-Market Execution, Security Go-To-Market, Cybersecurity Go-To-Market Strategy, GTM Execution, Pipeline Generation, Pipeline Quality, Demand Creation, Cybersecurity Pipeline Growth, Revenue Pipeline, Scaling Sales Teams, Sales Hiring, Sales Coaching, Revenue Operations, Cybersecurity CRO

The conversation runs from product (AI-native vs. bolted-on, and the shadow AI hiding inside companies) to the go-to-market side: how he's rebuilding the team around technology, process, and people, in that order, and who he'll hire to run it.

In this episode:

  • Why companies without a deep AI strategy could be "zombie companies" that don't know it yet
  • The difference between AI-native, AI-first, and just connecting an LLM to your old stack
  • How one prospect thought they ran 2,000 apps and actually ran 5,300
  • Why the buyers now include CFOs, compliance, and corporate counsel, not just security
  • Flipping "people, process, technology" to "technology, process, people" for an AI-first GTM
  • Why AI replaces reps who won't use AI, not salespeople as a whole
  • How Patrick screens candidates for want-to, including whether they used AI to prep for the interview
  • Why buyers now demand in one to three months what used to be a twelve-month roadmap promise

About the guest:
Patrick Dillon is CRO at Nudge Security. He and Andrew first spoke on the podcast at RSA 2025, when Patrick was launching a channel program at Airlock. Nudge closed its Series A last November.

Notable quotes:
"You can't secure, you can't govern what you can't see."
"The call is literally coming from inside your house."
"It's not a skill thing or an age thing. It's really a want-to thing."

The resulting State of Cybersecurity Marketing Influence Report 2026 holds some surprises: webinars beat CISO dinners, hands-on workshops build the peer references buyers trust most, and the first visitor to your website is increasingly a machine.

In this episode:

  • The top two CISO complaints about cyber marketing: it differs from product reality, and it's too high-level. Emily's fix starts with coffee-walk conversations with your engineers.
  • Why 44% of security leaders ranked webinars the most valuable event format, while peer roundtables and CISO dinners came last.
  • Why hands-on workshops should always be free: "You should be paying them, not them paying you."
  • How workshops become "investments in peer influence," the #1 credibility source in the research.
  • The shift to answer engines: Bain's 80% zero-click prediction and how to make your website a better "buffet for LLMs."
  • Emily's case study method: start with your selling points, validate them in the customer's voice, and pack the piece with reusable quotes.
  • Why buyers rely on analysts less than they used to, and what fills the gap for the ~3,700 vendors outside the magic quadrants.
  • Her advice for marketers coming from outside tech: keep asking why. "Fast is not an answer."

About the guest: Emily Matthews is the founder and principal of NOLA Marketing. A history and English major who started in mainframe system software, she has spent her career in technical product marketing and previously worked with the Ponemon Institute on the original Cost of a Data Breach report.

Rob Witmer joined Onyx Security before there was a finished product, before the company emerged from stealth, and before the market fully understood the problem they were solving.

In this episode, Rob shares what revenue leadership looks like when you're employee number 11 and the first go-to-market hire. We unpack how he approached the first 30, 60, and 90 days, why experienced sales leaders can create leverage long before a company reaches its first million dollars in revenue, and how close alignment between product and go-to-market execution accelerated Onyx's growth.

Rob explains how the team validated market demand for AI-agent security, how they handled customer objections when the category was still emerging, and why transparency became a competitive advantage when selling as an early-stage company. He also shares the characteristics he looks for when hiring early-stage sellers, why recruiting is one of the most important responsibilities in revenue leadership, and how speed and low-friction execution became core principles inside Onyx.

The conversation also explores the realities of scaling a cybersecurity company in a rapidly changing market, the influence of Israeli startup culture on execution speed, and why outcomes matter more than features when communicating value to customers.

Hosted by Andrew Monaghan, founder of Unstoppable.do, covering cyber sales leadership, revenue leadership, sales onboarding, forecasting, pipeline generation, and cybersecurity go-to-market execution.

About the guest: Rob Witmer is in his 26th year in software, roughly 20 of them as an individual contributor before moving into leadership. He was Onyx Security's first go-to-market hire, joining as employee 11 while the company was still in stealth.

Notable quotes:

  • "I was the first BDR, the first sales rep, the first operations guy, I was the first product manager."
  • "Microsoft did more for AI agents than anyone else out there."
  • "We want to be known as the easiest company to do business with."

Chapters (approx.):

  • 00:00 — Joining Onyx as employee 11
  • 03:31 — Why early CISO reactions were humbling
  • 07:07 — How Microsoft flipped the agent market
  • 16:33 — Why hire an experienced sales leader this early

Baber brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, and in this conversation, he delves into the importance of building partnerships that go beyond mere reselling opportunities. We'll explore the significance of investing in training for consultants to provide top-notch service to customers and how being a true partner means embedding into the partner's existing ecosystem.

But that's not all! We'll also dive into the concept of Product Market Fit and how it's a gradual process rather than an instant transition. Baber uses the analogy of traveling from San Francisco to New York to illustrate the journey of finding Product Market Fit, emphasizing the need for continuous learning and adaptation along the way. Additionally, we'll discover the evolving messaging around passwordless authentication and the importance of clearly communicating its benefits to customers.

Hold on tight as Baber takes us through Veridium's innovative approach to deploying phishing-resistant multifactor authentication, their new product developments to enhance biometrics, and the role of channel partners in expanding their reach. We'll explore how Veridium is staying current with industry trends and customer demands, and how they're bridging the gap between technical details and outcomes to drive success.

So, whether you're a cybersecurity enthusiast, a startup founder, or just curious about the latest industry insights, this episode is for you. Get ready to gain valuable perspectives on revenue generation, scaling a company, and elevating cybersecurity discussions to a business level. Let's dive in!

This episode covers one way to qualify prospects by just asking a few simple questions.
 
Here's what I cover:
1. Example questions to ask your prospect to determine if they are innovators and able to work with you without wasting time and effort

3. Strategies for being upfront with buyers to show you are someone they can trust

And how could those be transformed if you took away the concept of abundance, and instead imposed constraints that forced your sales reps to go deeper, think more critically, and tighten their questions, pitches, decks, and presentations?

Use constraints!

In this episode, I offer six examples of constraints that startups could embrace to inject creativity into their sales processes and deliver better outcomes with more agile sales teams. What happens when new ways of thinking uncover the biggest innovations, true key differentiators, and most compelling stories?

Let’s find out.

Today you’ll learn:

  • How sales thinking is driven to be better when it is constrained
  • How to get to clarity more quickly and effectively
  • The power of constraints where money, people, and time are *not* in abundance
  •  How to harness unleashed creativity to boost sales
  • How to manage internal and external constraints to hit more home runs

This has sent shockwaves through the cyber security community, with many outraged that Joe was left carrying the blame and conviction for this when other executives in the company, including then CEO Travis Kalanick, had approved the approach he was taking to deal with this breach.

Others have taken the view, similar to prosecutors, that there was an attempt to "cover up" the breach from the FTC, and therefore what do you expect?

In this episode, Mike Privette, the CISO at Passport, and Ben Halpert, the CISO at Groupon, talk about what we know about the case from reports and what it might mean for the industry.

In this episode we talk about

  • Why Eric didn’t hire startup sales people
  • Why it mattered to work with an exec team that has worked together for a long time
  • Why 90% of first meetings convert to 2nd meetings
  • How they exited stealth mode with real, live paying customers
  • The first deal they closed


“Sometimes when you change one thing, you change everything.” My first thought when I heard this tag line: urgggh, here we go again!  Another cyber security company is going to over hype themselves. But when I found out what they were building, my mind changed.  It might just be true for Island!

Eric remembers nearly everything about the day Island scored their first order. It was a big moment, and the next 10-11 orders were equally noteworthy, especially when you consider that Island was still in stealth mode. They eventually came out of stealth with a roster of prominent and influential clients where they’d proven their use cases and won over the CISOs.

Coming out of stealth—and growing into that position—meant growing their sales team. Unlike most startups, Island went deep, into their networks. They hired folks they trusted, had worked with, colleagues and friends who had proven sales successes and a network to bring with them. Island also came to depend on the satisfied CISOs they worked with to talk about the product in their underground chat spaces, peer to peer. The rise in interest and confidence was something a sales pitch could never achieve on its own.

Join me for a discussion with Eric Appel—a self-described early bird who likes to wake up to “the promise of the day”—who has helped Island seize that promise as well. “Sometimes when you change one thing, you change everything.” Now I’m a believer.

When you focus on the problem it solves, you might just revolutionize your approach to the market. 

Shifting your sales and marketing tactics to address your clients’ pain points positions you as an empathetic, human-centered company–and draws in more business. In this episode, I’ll discuss how sales teams can translate the excitement for a new product by establishing what problem it solves and figuring out how to evangelize it to prospects.

I’ll walk through an example of how you can put this technique into practice and what kind of language to use. Join me to learn how to differentiate your company as an expert on the industry, not just your product.

You’ll Learn:

  • What it means to evangelize the problem
  • The key role the sales team plays in this effort
  • How not to “vendorsplain”
  • Examples of how to put this strategy into practice
  • What language to use in a solution-oriented approach

In the early stages of a start-up, it’s tempting to keep hiring for your sales team. You might make the assumption that adding more heads and assigning more quota will lead to higher productivity.

But there’s a little more nuance to it than that. Every company is different, which means every company requires its own individualized model. In this episode, I give you the lowdown on deciding when and how to scale your sales team depending on your business. I’ll show you three concrete things to look at to decide whether or not to hire: your calendar, the velocity of deals coming down the pipeline, and your process for setting new hires up for success.

These questions can help you determine if it’s time to add to your sales team or if you should dig deeper for further analysis first. Join me as I demystify this complex and sometimes confusing process.

You’ll Learn:

  • Why it’s tempting to expand your sales team early, but why that’s not right for everyone
  • Three ways to analyze your company’s current hiring needs
  • What your team’s calendar can tell you about hiring
  • Ways to make your current team more productive
  • How to evaluate the velocity of deals coming down the pipeline

We also dig into how Anjuna were able to look into the market, recognize the gaps in cloud-based security systems and provide one that filled in the blanks and upleveled existing solutions. 

Ayal looks at where cloud-based computing is heading, including a vision of a hybridized cloud system where users can work across various cloud platforms at once. 

You’ll Learn:

  • Why distribution is the key to success in the cybersecurity market, and how to ensure yours is dialed in. 
  • The problems faced by companies who move their workload into the cloud, and how hardware vendors built a solution to prevent that. 
  • A security loophole that allowed Apple to turn down the FBI’s request for full access to their data catalog. Hint: They don’t have the data to begin with.

We are asked about it a lot. “What does your company do?” Unfortunately, too many times our answers are less than stellar. Too many times we use buzzwords and bore our audience. Too many times we confuse our prospect and when that happens we miss a prime opportunity to rise above the noise and be memorable.

But, the good news is there is a simple framework to use that works. The other week we went over the framework of answering these questions, and in this episode we are going over real examples to show how effective it can be.

You’ll Learn:

  • The critical question your “What I do” statement must answer if you want to hold your audience’s interest. 
  • Why it’s essential that this statement strikes a balance between the customer problem and solution—and how to do that.

We are asked about it a lot.  “What does your company do?”  Unfortunately too many times our answers are less than stellar.  Too many times we use buzzwords and are bored. Too many times we confuse our prospect and when that happens we miss a prime opportunity to rise above the noise and be memorable.

But, the good news is there is a simple framework to use that works. The other week we went over the framework of answering these questions, and in this episode we are going over real examples to show how effective it can be.

It all begins with identifying a niche enough problem that you can provide a unique solution, yet one that’s widespread enough that enough people need your unique solution. From there, it’s deeply about storytelling. You have to tell a compelling and layered story about your product and build cohesion in brand voice and problem-solving. Once a customer is drawn in by a story, then, they need to be sold on credibility. So the next phase of storytelling involves the right storytellers - brand ambassadors and salespeople with industry cred - and the right audience. Do the people you’re telling these stories fit your criteria?

We also talk about scaling sales and all that entails. You can’t be the only run pitching and driving, or you hit a plateau. So how you set others up in your company to learn the ropes and keep on telling those important stories is going to play a big part in your future growth.

How do you tell your product’s story? How are you getting in front of - and connecting with - the right customers? What are your plans to scale and are you prioritizing consistency? We address all these questions and more in today’s episode.

What do your customers care about? What is the heart of their struggle that you solve? And how do you scale those solutions to meet multilayer needs? When it comes to building business, you need to look at primary drivers and secondary, tertiary, etc. benefits. What more do you offer and how do those offerings contribute to your customer’s peace of mind?

We also talk through scaling sales, from the sales team (initial hires, strategic expansions) to channel expansion (maximizing leadership, branching out into other adjacent arenas) to increasing offerings (what other benefits customers need, what levels of service). It’s important to hire the right people and place them in specific roles. Beyond industry intelligence, you’re also hiring for and building loyalty.

So the challenge for salespeople is to stand out and to make an impression. A great way to do that? Get hyper-personalized.

Hyper-personalization shows attention to detail right from the start. This lets your prospects know that not only is the sales experience likely to be a smooth one, but that you’ve done your research and are only reaching out to them with a solution that they actually need. The question is how do you approach a hyper-personalized strategy?

In this episode, Jason Prindle, the Senior Director of Global Sales Development at Big ID, takes over the podcast to share his company’s experience with hyper-personalization. He discusses his four-pronged approach (personalization, assumption of pain, proof point and call to action), and how to put that strategy into real-life action.

]]> The world of sales is a crowded one where prospects in your pipeline are flooded with pitches. So the challenge for salespeople is to stand out and to make an impression. A great way to do that? Get hyper-personalized.

Hyper-personalization shows attention to detail right from the start. This lets your prospects know that not only is the sales experience likely to be a smooth one, but that you’ve done your research and are only reaching out to them with a solution that they actually need. The question is how do you approach a hyper-personalized strategy?

In this episode, Jason Prindle, the Senior Director of Global Sales Development at Big ID, takes over the podcast to share his company’s experience with hyper-personalization. He discusses his four-pronged approach (personalization, assumption of pain, proof point and call to action), and how to put that strategy into real-life action. 

How could hyper-personalization help you reach or exceed your various goals? Where can you make your prospecting materials a little more personalized? How specific can you get on solving customer struggles?

Many businesses operate fully digitally for selling their products and services. The impact of not protecting your API’s is clear, because it is a direct portal to your most sensitive business logic. 

When it comes to the actual applications and API's, the security teams are completely blind. Neosec helps security organizations to discover API's to find vulnerabilities, stop abuse, and build more urgency around protecting their API’s which is the ultimate goal.

Giora discusses how Neosec found its problem-solving niche, how they used that approach to solving blind spots in the market, how they helped buyers in security organizations become more aware, and much more.

From monetizing endpoints to breaking apart the systems and structures as a whole, cybersecurity has become something that’s top of every business leader’s mind.

In this episode, Dave Hatchell, long-time cybersecurity sales and business leader joins us to walk us through this subset of cyber security.  We take a deep dive into why customers need the software that runs their business to also hold up on the protection side of things. But those are two different selling points. How does the customer vary? From leaning into that question, you can start to determine how your sales approaches should vary.

Where do enterprise and industrial clients differ? With so many particular needs across so many particular industries, there are all kinds of start-ups popping up to address those highly specific industry needs. We touch on how you can be expected, as a salesperson, to solve those problems from industry to industry and from funding size to funding size.

At the end of the day, this is a hot topic and a hot industry. How can you plan to break into it on the sales front? As businesses expand into more verticals, you can be ready to meet them where they need their struggles solved. From automation to political insecurity, the critical infrastructure and OT security industry is only going to grow bigger.

With that being said, it’s not uncommon to have the founder come in and critique the work being done in every department. They are a part of the culture, character, messaging, vision and so much more that will directly affect the success of the company. 

So, what intrigues people about joining startups compared to established companies?

Unfortunately, many people are sold a dream when they join a startup. They are attracted by promises of untold riches and IPO’s for joining the rocket ship early, but it’s not always as it seems.

After Andrew’s experience being a part of three different startups, in this episode he is going over how to make the most out of the opportunity to meet the founders, and what two important questions you should ask them. 

Tune in to the episode to learn what questions he would ask, and the meaning behind them. 

With the right questions you can easily decide whether you should change your life now for the promise of life changing experiences and riches in the future.

Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber Managed Security Services, joins me today to talk about his incredible story about how he went from being an engineer to switching careers and working his way up in the cybersecurity sales space.

When he left his engineer job to pursue his passion of working in sales, he started his new career with Symantec. While he was there for an entire decade, he was able to bring businesses from zero to helping them create a solid foundation in their Asia Pacific in Japan and Sydney businesses. 

Because of his incredible work, he got asked to come back and run the whole business which at the time, was one of the largest MSSP in the world, with 450 to 500 employees, and six security operations centers around the world.

Later in his career he decided to go somewhere smaller and helped build out FireEye’s MSSP program, both for sales outbound, but also to work with partners and channels.

With years of experience in MSSP, Scott is sharing what he feels like his biggest learnings were, what could be different and what he took from it to make SolCyber Managed Security Services the best in the industry. 

Tune into today's episode where we expand more on Scott’s thoughts on how to cut through the noise in a world where everybody can call themselves an MSSP and rise above it by really delivering results and building your reputation.

]]> We are in for a treat for today’s episode. Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber Managed Security Services, joins me today to talk about his incredible story about how he went from being an engineer to switching careers and working his way up in the cybersecurity sales space.

When he left his engineer job to pursue his passion of working in sales, he started his new career with Symantec. While he was there for an entire decade, he was able to bring businesses from zero to helping them create a solid foundation in their Asia Pacific in Japan and Sydney businesses. 

Because of his incredible work, he got asked to come back and run the whole business which at the time, was one of the largest MSSP in the world, with 450 to 500 employees, and six security operations centers around the world.

Later in his career he decided to go somewhere smaller and helped build out FireEye’s MSSP program, both for sales outbound, but also to work with partners and channels.

With years of experience in MSSP, Scott is sharing what he feels like his biggest learnings were, what could be different and what he took from it to make SolCyber Managed Security Services the best in the industry. 

Tune into today's episode where we expand more on Scott’s thoughts on how to cut through the noise in a world where everybody can call themselves an MSSP and rise above it by really delivering results and building your reputation.

Theo started out his journey in cyber as an intern with FireEye and then ended up getting an offer to join them as a Sales Development Representative. Now, 8 years later, he has started a business of his own called Right-Hand Cybersecurity. 

Starting a company is something that Theo had always wanted to do. What it came down to was a conversation between him and his wife about three things…

#1 What were they going to do?

#2 Who were they going to do it with?

#3 Where were they going to do it?

Once he felt confident in the network he had accumulated combined with the problem he had identified, it felt like the right time to take the plunge. 

So what were some of Theo’s first hires? Well, it wasn’t salespeople. He started off with hiring engineers to help build and establish his product. At first, he explains how when making those first hires, whether it was those early engineers or the early people on his go to market team, you’re hiring for a brand that is relatively unknown. Basically, you’re hiring on a vision and you're selling the vision of what you want to do, and the potential you want to unlock. 

His #1 advice he’d give to an entrepreneur looking to hire the first members of their team would be to build in public.

As CEO, Theo continues to make cold calls, do outreach for prospects, and has the discipline to take what he learned during his years as an SDR and apply them to his practice and routine today. 

Tune in to the episode to learn more about Theo’s journey from intern in cybersecurity to being founder and CEO of his own business. 

If you want to get in touch with Theo, the best way is to contact him on LinkedIn or email him at theo@right-hand.ai.com

Rick started his career at Cisco in the Sales Associate Program and ended his 16 year career with them as Director of Sales, Global Enterprise to make the move to Ava Security to become their VP & GM of the Americas. 

In his career at Cisco, Rick progressed through the ranks and eventually made the decision to leave the nest. He recalls times where some thought he was crazy for leaving his role in Cisco, but for him it was time to do something different. 

Now, the startup world and culture is a different beast altogether, so it’s not for everyone, but for Rick, it was the right time to do something different. It was the right time for him to take all of the skills and talents that he had the chance to grow and accumulate at Cisco and put them to work in a different way. 

Rick explains the adjustment from going from a large company like Cisco to a startup where he was tasked with consistently making big decisions. He went from making decisions with a significant amount of data points to making a volume of decisions with a high level of intensity. He explains how although this change at first felt intense and exhausting, with time he was able to adjust. As Rick likes to say: it’s where the fun is.

At Ava Security, Rick leads the Americas business with the responsibility to help their partners, customers, and communities leverage the technology to disrupt the market and protect their people, places, and intellectual property.

Tune in to the episode to learn more about Rick’s journey, his transition to Ava Security, and to go in depth into how his company was recently acquired and everything that went into that process.

On this episode, we have our special guest Chris Beall, the CEO at ConnectAndSell. 

Chris goes over some insightful tactics that cover the psychology behind the call and how to grab your potential prospects' attention right away, and how he has been training people on how to do the same.

The truth is, if you don’t master the first seven seconds and get trust, the rest of the call is utterly meaningless. The springboard to curiosity is trust. If you don't get there, you can't get there.

When people are in sales training, a big piece that is missing is the real conversations. Chris realized that the unique experience of talking over and over to real prospects, and being coached on every conversation is what was needed to be able to help sellers grow in their sales expertise. 

While sharing his insight about the flow of the calls, Chris goes over how there are 4 parts of the conversation you will be having with prospects. 

The first part is the opener, the second part is the conversation going somewhere, the third part is objections, and the fourth part is asking for the meeting. Chris created his flight school based off of these concepts and structured the training for sellers to have the best results. 

Tune in to the episode to learn in depth all of the different pieces of learning sales and how to master the full process from getting on a cold call to moving the prospect to an official meeting.

Mark stresses the importance of keeping a candid culture so that you can have your team buy into the company concepts, persevere through constant changes and keep an entrepreneurial spirit as you continue to grow and stretch your team.

In his experience, something that will simplify the process of preparing for IPO and hyper-growth is to create a proper sales process and operations roadmap that has actionable goals with realistic timelines. Sometimes we can be hasty and want things done as soon as possible, but building those plans in bite sized chunks is so much more effective.

Most importantly, when it comes to the IPO, it’s important to not only focus on your strengths and weaknesses throughout it but we have to enjoy the process. Enjoy the learning opportunities and take a minute to step back and remember what you’ve accomplished and how far you’ve come. 

Tune into the episode to learn more about Mark’s journey and how you can use his career learnings as insight for moving forward in your career.

I spent 19 years directly in sales carrying a quota, either as a seller or as a sales leader. Then, I spent about eight or nine years working with sales teams, as a consultant, trainer and coach to help them succeed in the cybersecurity space.

While in my sales career, I qualified for eight out of the 12 President's clubs. By most measures, I did pretty good. I feel reasonably satisfied with how things have gone. 

Now, years after leaving and really looking back on it, there are definitely some things that I would change if I could do it all over again. 

When I speak with my clients, a burning question that many people have is, “what would you do differently in your past sales career if you know what you know now?”

Some people may not want to look back on the past and wish they did something differently. But, there’s a difference between regretting something and thinking of how you can use your experiences to teach and inspire others.

So in this episode, I’m going to break down the four different things that I would have done differently, in hopes that you will be able to take this advice and avoid making these mistakes for yourself.

In this episode, we are talking about her experience in the cyber security industry and learning the different takeaways that she kept from each of her roles in different companies. 

With the pressure to constantly bring in numbers, it’s important to think about what your priorities are and how you will work effectively with them.

Denise tells us that just because someone may have only been successful in one company, it doesn't mean that they can't be successful in a different company, but they need to have the right motivation, the right coachability and the right desire to do something different. 

When it comes to the sales process she experienced in her career, there was a very formal qualification process and a formal kickoff to the POC, that involved socializing with the executives to make sure that there was going to be buy in. 

Denise stresses that having the basics in place is extremely important, and with most companies they are not consistent with keeping up with the process that needs to happen to make sure you’re speaking to the right people in the sales process. 

If you have an open mind about each company to understand what’s going on in each one you will be able to see how you can best use your skill sets to benefit the company. When you rise above the noise and go the extra mile, you will be able to flourish. 

Tune into the episode to hear more about Denise’s experience and how you can implement some of her greatest learnings into your career journey!

Everything we do in the sales world revolves around a problem. After all, the whole reason we are able to sell to anyone is because of a problem someone is trying to solve, right? I want to challenge your thinking here, and ask you this: Have you ever empathized with a prospect over their problem?

I know the quickest response in our minds to a question like that would be, “I know my prospects problem before we even get to a meeting”. 

But, the truth is that sometimes we “know” the problem and mistake that for having a deeper understanding of the problem. If we can master not only finding the problem that each prospect is dealing with but also being able to empathize how that problem is impacting their lives, they are much more likely to believe we have the solution.

If you look at everything you hear from the companies that you work for, I bet you that 80% of it is oriented around the product, the solution, the latest version, the new feature that came out, and we're making ourselves to be the hero of the story. If we are bombarded with these messages, then it's more natural for us over time to end up talking about those things the most.

The bottom line is that prospects buy things from people they trust, and someone they believe has the solution to their urgent need. When we are in the sales process, if we can focus on these things we will be able to make our sales cycle much shorter.

Tune into the episode to learn how you can understand your prospect problems deeply, explain your solution in an intentional way with those understandings, and use great questions to draw the prospect into a meaningful conversation.

Luckily, the nontraditional aspect of his background paid off when he had to make hires to build up his sales team. Alex tells us the 5 key traits he looks for in all potential new hires: 

  • Coachability 
  • Curiosity 
  • Prior success
  • Intelligence 
  • Work ethic

Your prospect is asking themselves

  • what does your company do? 
  • who are they like that they already know about so they can do a comparison? 
  • who is already working with them? 

This is where we usually pull out a presentation deck. Unfortunately, this deck has become synonymous with pitching and your prospects are apprehensive about salespeople pitching at them.  

The thing is, we are all humans and we often communicate better using visuals. 

So, let's go over 5 ways to use your deck effectively: 

  1. Start every slide with something about the prospect 
  2. Have the mindset to make it a conversation, not a pitch
  3. Have specific intentional questions for each slide 
  4. Ease your prospect’s mind
  5. Make sure you start strong and impactful at the start

Tune into this episode where we expand more on these points and what you can do to make sure you’re using your deck effectively!

Well, we’ve all been there. 

That first meeting conversion has such a huge impact on how successful we are. If your conversion rate isn't the best, then what ends up happening is you try to make the most of what you have, and do anything you can to have opportunities (good or bad) go through. 

Maybe it’s something you’re doing, or maybe it's something you’re not doing! In our next three episodes, we will be covering all things “first meetings”. We will be going over a check list I created and thinking through what's happening in those first meetings and what we can do to make sure they’re turning into those quality opportunities that we’re looking for.

Now, let's go over a few of those points:

#1 Are you truly meeting with your ideal customer profile?

#2 Are we having the right level of conversation for who we’re meeting with? 

#3 Are you carving out 10 minutes at the end of the meeting to agree on the next steps?

#4 Have you identified a big enough problem to work through with the prospect or that's big enough for them to be excited to fix? 

#5 Have you been able to articulate a future for them to move towards and get excited about? 

#6 How have you spent your time in the meeting? Sometimes we’ve pitched too much in the time we’ve carved out for the meeting

#7 Are we asking great questions during the explanation of what we do?

Tune into today's episode where we expand on these points and what you can do to score those second meetings!

While reflecting that summer she realized she made one big mistake and rectified it for the following season.  The result?  2019 was the single most dominant season by a skier (male or female) of all time.
