ANTHONY’S TIP: “Early-in-career people have to get a good coach in their corner, they have to have mentors that they engage with, and they have to be really dialed into building subject matter expertise. The relationships Megan is developing today, she will have these relationships for 10 or 20 and sometimes 30 years. Investing in these relationships is really important.”

IES Women in Sales Program Director Gina Stracuzzi conducted the interview as part of the Women in Sales series of the Sales Game Changers Podcast.
SOUROR’S TIP: “Don’t be afraid of rejection. My biggest thing is I pick up the phone and I just make the phone call. Whether it’s your management, whether it’s a customer, whether it’s something that you need from somebody to take that next step. Worst-case scenario, it’s a no, and you move on. But best-case scenario, you get what you had hoped for.”
JESSICA’S TIP: “Invest in yourself. Be proactive with getting better at your job by finding a mentor, by attending trainings. They will help with your professional development. Go to the live events, push yourself outside of the comfort zone and just build those connections. That’s how we thrive in this business – off of the connection.”

DAWN'S TIP: "Always be honing your skills, because things are always changing. My dad taught math, and sometimes I think, “Boy, wouldn’t that be nice?” Because things don’t change. I’m always every semester updating my notes, because nothing is ever the same. You’ve just constantly got to be honing those skills and staying up to date on what’s happening."

Today’s show featured an interview with Josh Garrison, VP of Marketing at Apollo and the author of "Outbound Sales: A data-backed playbook for cold email, cold calling, social selling, and more," and Samuel Elliott, Senior Account Executive.
JOSH'S TIP: "Go leave five comments on LinkedIn, and I want you to do it in a way where you’re not selling anything. Give as much as you can in those five comments on five different posts and see what you get. Make that a habit. That’s my number one thing, that even myself, we could all do better and the rewards are going to be there."
SAMUEL'S TIP: "Go log into ChatGPT, Perplexity, or any of the AI applications. Before your next call with someone, ask it to summarize what that company does, who they serve, and what their specific role and title cares about. You’ll be amazed at how much it can streamline your pre-call research and information and all of the possibilities beyond it."

Today’s show featured an interview with James Muir, author of “Unsticking Deals,” and his colleague Patti Peets, Chief Revenue Officer, Unislink.
JAMES’ TIP: “Be a domain expert in addition to being a sales expert. If you’re a new salesperson, what that means is you need to master your industry so well that if the person that you sell to said, “Hey, I’m going to be gone for a month, could you come in and sit in and do my job for me for a month while I’m on vacation?” If you can say you can do that, then you’ve learned enough about your industry. Until you can say that, you need to keep grinding until you understand that, because what’s going to happen is the credibility that you’ll have with clients when you’re with them will go off the charts.”
PATTI’S TIP: “Really go through every deal in your pipeline. If it’s been in that stage for more than 14 days maybe, or 21 days, you should go through that list of questions to really score yourself and be honest with yourself, and then admit this deal is stuck. Then put a plan together, follow some of those methods and techniques that James offers up, and watch what happens. You will have deals that literally unstick, and maybe not every deal, but you will have deals that get unstuck by following this process.”

Today’s show featured an interview with Faheem Moosa, founder of Consulting Leap.
Find Faheem on LinkedIn.
FAHEEM’S TIP: “Even though I had a champion in the organization, I couldn’t push too hard. That was a learning for me. There are different dynamics that take place within an organization. Champions are not going to save you all the time, but then it doesn’t stop you from pursuing other angles and still being top of mind in other ways. That’s what I learned about champions in a complex sale.”
🚀 Key Takeaways:✅ Sales champions help—but can’t always seal the deal. Even a CFO advocate might hesitate if the timing isn’t right.
✅ Persistence pays off. Even when doors close, creative networking can lead to a breakthrough.
✅ Sales isn’t just about strategy—it’s about patience. The right opportunity can take time, but when it comes, the deal can happen fast. -

You’ll be surprised at the insights you can get from that. Our job is to help our customers and our prospects. How are you going to do that unless you really understand what their needs are?"
PAT'S TIP: "Reach out to one sales professional, but any professional that you respect and admire, and say, “What’s one book that you would recommend that really helped shape and advance your career?” Read it and then see what happens."

Find Richard on LinkedIn.
RICHARD'S TIP: "it’s so important and so rarely done that we show the correct amount of appreciation to our clients. Where when there’s nothing going on, it’s a quiet day, I pick up the phone, call 10 clients who have been with us before and say, “Thanks. We really appreciate that you trusted us with your child, your most valued possession.” Take the time to let your customers know that you appreciate them. That will have a very good result for you."

NATALIE’S TIP: “It comes down to changing a habit. Whether it is making your home screen Perplexity and not Google to try, what is it like to search with an answers engine versus Google? As you do that, you’re going to see, “If it can do this, it can do this,” and it will start growing on itself. Put that into your daily workflows and see what you get.”

SETH’S TIP: “AI is going to make you as a sales professional a lot better. It’s going to make it a lot harder to be a seller, but for those who take advantage of it, it’s not going anywhere soon. Tt’s going to make sales more important and it’s going to make the true nature of a seller. The true nature of a seller is independence and really trying to find your own way to do things.”

Find Linda on LinkedIn.
LINDA'S TIP: "I want to emphasize the power of using stories into your deliveries. If I would have said, “Oh, the Convention Center has 73,000 square feet,” they aren’t going to remember it. But they’re going to remember a Guinness World Book of Records. They’re going to remember the inaugurations. Those are the things that you leave people with, and you can always give them the information after. Data and information is good to a point, but it can also kill you."
