Episode #773: Avoiding Common Year-End Sales Mistakes

, , , , , , ,

Bill and Bryan discuss some of the most common mistakes sales teams make when trying to close out the year strong. They talk about the dangers of discounting to hit quota, warning that this can train customers to always expect a deal.

The guys emphasize starting with the intention to help prospects truly, not just make the numbers look good. They advise against putting too much pressure on prospects to close deals by year-end when there may not be a good reason and the importance of having a vision for both the next 30-45 days and the coming year so you don’t lose momentum.

Episode #772: Evaluating What Truly Matters

, , , , , , ,

In this episode, Bill and Bryan have an important conversation about fulfillment and meaning beyond just hitting sales targets and revenue goals. They introduce the concept of the Thriving and Fulfillment Inventory (TFI), encouraging listeners to take stock of what activities and parts of their work truly light them up versus simply going through the motions.

The guys share personal examples from their own careers about times they’ve chased validation or followed a certain path just because it led to more money, but didn’t actually bring joy or meaning. They also stress the importance of having supportive people in your life who will encourage you to pursue your passions. Even if it doesn’t immediately make sense on paper, sometimes it’s those less obvious ideas that end up thriving and leading to fulfillment.
