🌟 Catch Up on Dear Future CRO Before Season 3! 🌟 As we gear up for the launch of Season 3 of the Dear Future CRO Podcast this August, don't miss our advice-packed episodes, such as our interview with Kelly Wright of Culture Driven Sales. Kelly takes us through her transformative journey from door-to-door book sales to tech industry leader, highlighting the importance of passion, perseverance, and a people-first approach. She emphasizes that aligning with a company's mission and vision is crucial for success. 🔗 Tune in here: https://lnkd.in/gs2eaFYS ------------ 🎙️ "A very foundational skill is being able to really learn and embrace: You can only control what you can control. If someone slams the door on my face and they scream at me, I can't control that. The interesting part, which is very true to sales, but with door to door, you knock on a door, the next door, it's less than a minute away. You walk next door. And so when they open the door, they don't care about all the baggage of what happened to you on the rest of the street. You literally have 20 seconds when they open the door to be able to establish a connection and have that first impression. And so you have to leave everything else behind and know how to bring your best self forward every time you're showing up. And that all morphed together to be really foundational skills to be successful in sales." - Kelly Breslin Wright #DearFutureCRO #GrowthQ #SalesSuccess #Leadership #Podcast
