Crushing Ego for Sales & Marketing Wins

In the world of Sales and Marketing, there's one big roadblock we all face: our own egos. I learned this firsthand when our team implemented a groundbreaking strategy for our prospecting efforts. We shifted away from reaching out to cold prospects and instead focused on nurturing our existing audience, expecting that when they entered the market, they would naturally express interest and request a meeting. And guess what? It worked—the opportunities in the cycle nearly tripled, and the newly generated opportunities began to close.

For those seeking a bold change, consider this challenge: fully commit to a marketing-centric plan that emphasizes engaging your audience and actively involving them. I've personally witnessed the transformative impact of such an approach, particularly in identifying accounts that not only engage but also convert. The intimidating part? It all comes down to having the confidence to believe in your ability. While it might initially feel like a leap of faith, taking this bold step has the potential to redefine what success in marketing truly looks like.

Psst! If you're not sure, test it out: take half of your leads and use the new approach, and handle the other half like you normally do. See what works best for you. Let me know your results in the comment section below.
