Sometimes the most convincing thing you can say in sales is, “I don’t know… let me find out.” Trust beats bluffing every time. 🤝

When I mention Customer Interaction Platforms, many people immediately ask:
“So… what exactly are they?”

Sometimes the fastest way to grow in sales is to qualify harder on the first call, because spending weeks chasing someone with no budget, no timeline, and no urgency is time you’ll never get back. 🎯📞⏳

Little sales secret: everyone is winging it sometimes — borrow confidence if you must, but never fake facts. 🎯

Most businesses would never leave a shop unattended.

Yet many do exactly that with their website.

Most salespeople copy what competitors say—then wonder why prospects can’t tell the difference.

Doing “more” is not always the answer in sales growth. I wish I knew that before.

I talk a lot about this in Start, Build, Scale — especially around the early growth stages.

One thing that is seen in GTM teams is that customer information is everywhere, scattered in every single system or database.

Would you do that in sales, or is this crossing the line?

Sales are down this quarter. Before blaming your sales team, ask yourself this…

What if the problem is your sales incentives plan?

[Vangelis Sakelliou @vsakelliou]

Most GTM teams are obsessed with generating more leads.
More website traffic.
More webinar registrations.
More content downloads.
More pipeline.

But very few stop and ask a different question:
What happens to all those interactions after they happen?

If you decide to send out automated cold outreach emails, at least watch out and never make this mistake with the merge tags. You will upset the buyer. (Below one of the many emails I received...)

📈 Marketing: “This lead is HOT!” 🔥 Me: “Interesting… they haven’t engaged since 2018.” 🦖

Everybody talks about lead generation, but perhaps the biggest growth opportunity is not finding more leads—it is doing a better job engaging the ones you already have.

One of the biggest mistakes in sales is believing pipeline mathematics is the same as real-world predictability.

A £100k opportunity at 90% probability still has one important characteristic:
It is not closed.

In a world overloaded with cold outreach, webinars and podcasts are becoming one of the smartest ways to build trust, authority, and warmer sales conversations before the first meeting even happens.

Most sales people won’t admit this publicly, but many client calls today sound like acronym battles.

If you don’t use this in your sales growth plan… think again.

Your website is no longer just a page.
It’s becoming part of your sales engine.

Nothing humbles a salesperson faster than a “high intent” lead who disappears across every channel known to mankind.
