Join John's Newsletter FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Executive time crunch: If an exec only has five minutes instead of 30, ask, "What’s the one thing you need to hear to earn another meeting with your full attention?" Focus on that. Lead with a hypothesis: Instead of asking generic discovery questions, start with a hypothesis about their priorities based on research, showing you did your homework. Decision criteria: Prospects may focus on the wrong decision factors. Share a list of common criteria and ask them to rank their priorities to guide the discussion. Demo as you go: Don't save all product demos for the end. Show small pieces of the product during the conversation, interspersing discovery throughout.

TOP ACTIONABLE SALES TAKEAWAYS: Connect with your team: Be connected with everyone at your company to easily back-channel info about candidates through mutual connections. Three-step candidate drip: Use a three-message drip when outbounding candidates—intro, bubble-up, and ask for referrals if they aren’t interested. Mini-pitch framework: Pitch by sharing your personal story, explaining your team’s philosophy, and highlighting what impressed you about the candidate. Sell before screening: Don’t grill outbound candidates. Ask them to brag about what sets them apart, and judge their quality based on that.

FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS If you feel like you have leverage in a deal, but haven't gotten in front of the right stakeholders to progress the deal, use that as a non-negotiable to begin negotiations Sit down and write down your own "Gives" and "Gets" that you can trade with your buyer during a sales cycle Someone liking your offering does not make them an effective champion, ask questions like "Is {title} aware of these conversations?" to test them When trying to get access to power use labelling statements like "I often hear {title} likes to weigh in, is that the same for you?"
