14:41

The phrase “Kill Your Darlings,” attributed to writer William Faulkner, is a piece of advice given to authors that suggests cutting the parts of a story or novel that they love the most. The idea is that these "darlings" often hinder the overall flow, clarity, or effectiveness of the piece. In a business context, the concept translates well. We often hold on to projects, products, or services that we’re emotionally attached to, despite evidence that they may be draining resources or no longer serving the overall goals of the company. When I looked at the bigger picture, I realized that while the Full Funnel Freedom show had been incredibly valuable and rewarding, it wasn’t helping me move toward my ultimate goal—helping my clients scale their sales and achieve their ideal exits. To focus more effectively on supporting them, I made the tough decision to “kill my darling” and end the podcast. Letting go of something I’ve invested in emotionally and professionally wasn’t easy, but it was necessary to free up time and energy for the things that will drive my business and clients forward. It’s a reminder that sometimes, even our most cherished projects can hold us back from what really matters. What you'll learn: How do you identify which projects or services are no longer serving your long-term goals? What is the process for evaluating the value versus the burden of current business offerings? How can the “Kill Your Darlings” mindset help leaders make tough but necessary decisions for growth?

164. Desire Based Leadership, with Phil Putnam 37:47

22 weeks temu37:47

Understanding what truly motivates employees is the key to unlocking top performance. While many organizations focus on achieving business goals, the real secret lies in aligning the company’s objectives with the personal aspirations of employees. It’s no longer enough to push for corporate success as the primary driver—employees want to see how their work contributes to their own life goals. Leaders who acknowledge and foster this connection between personal desires and professional roles tap into an intrinsic motivation that can drive exceptional results. By focusing on what employees care about most—their lifestyle, income, and personal growth—leaders can inspire teams to consistently perform at their best. Phil Putnam, a workshop leader, business strategy consultant, and speaker, has built a career on helping companies maximize performance through human-first strategies. With over two decades of experience working with brands like Adobe, Apple, Bloomberg, and Salesforce, Phil believes that employee motivation is not just about corporate success, but also about aligning personal life goals with work responsibilities. His new book, Desire-Based Leadership , which will be released on October 15, offers a deep dive into how leaders can harness this concept to improve employee satisfaction and performance. Phil was previously featured in episode 146. Click Here to pre-order Phil's book Desire-Based Leadership What you'll learn: How can leaders align their company's goals with the personal desires of their employees to drive motivation? What are the long-term business benefits of focusing on employee satisfaction over constant hiring and replacements?

163. Why you need a Process for Sales, with Don Hicks 28:38

23 weeks temu28:38

28:38

In the complex world of enterprise and B2B sales, the importance of following a structured process cannot be overstated. Discovery, often underemphasized, plays a pivotal role in identifying not only the problems customers face but also the best solutions tailored to their needs. A disciplined approach to discovery helps sales professionals dig beyond surface-level concerns and better understand the true impact, economics, and urgency behind a prospect's problem. Without a solid framework, discovery quickly devolves into an interrogation, making it harder to build trust and uncover the real motivators behind a deal. Structuring discovery around a clear process allows sales leaders to forecast deals more accurately and optimize the path to closing with minimal friction. Don Hicks brings over two decades of sales expertise to his role as the Area VP of Sales for Venture Employer Solutions. Before venturing into the world of sales, Don served eight years in the United States Marine Corps, where he earned the distinguished honor of Marine of the Year. Transitioning into sales, he started his career selling life insurance and mortgages, eventually moving into enterprise software and HR services. As a sales leader, Don focuses on coaching, training, and deal strategy, using his experience to guide his team of two leaders and 30 sales professionals toward consistent success. His superpower? Turning a deep understanding of discovery into a tool for sales excellence. What you'll learn: Why is having a structured process for discovery essential in enterprise sales? What specific framework can sales leaders use to improve their team's discovery process and deal strategy? How does focusing on buyer problems over personal sales goals change the trajectory of a sale?

In today’s fast-paced B2B landscape, marketing and sales can no longer operate in isolation. Both functions have different strengths, but when combined, they create a powerful, customer-centric force that drives results.

A collaborative relationship between the two functions ensures a seamless customer experience, removes barriers to conversion, and produces a more unified approach to solving customer challenges. The real magic happens when sales and marketing work in sync—sharing insights, addressing objections in unison, and refining product offerings based on real-time feedback from prospects. Christian Klepp, co-founder and director of client engagement at Einblick Consulting, brings over 13 years of experience in B2B branding, marketing, and communications. Having worked with industry giants such as Caterpillar, Henkel, and Logitech, Christian’s extensive global experience across Europe, Asia, and North America has helped him master the art of aligning marketing and sales for greater success.

In today’s fast-paced sales environment, facts and figures alone are not enough to close deals.

Change management is crucial in sales departments because it ensures that transitions are smooth, minimizes disruption, and enhances overall performance. When sales teams are asked to adapt to new processes, tools, or strategies, the success of these changes often hinges on how well the transition is managed, not just the change itself. Effective change management addresses the human element—helping team members move from denial and resistance to exploration and commitment. By understanding and supporting these transitions, leaders can foster an environment where changes are not only accepted but embraced, leading to sustained improvement in sales outcomes. What you'll learn: What are the key stages of transition that sales teams go through during a change initiative? How can leaders identify and manage resistance to change within their sales teams?

In the world of sales, curiosity isn’t just a trait—it's a critical component of success. Extreme curiosity allows sales professionals to dig deeper, uncover hidden needs, and truly understand their clients' challenges. This deep understanding enables salespeople to offer solutions that aren't just off the shelf but are tailored to the specific pain points of their clients. When you approach every interaction with a genuine desire to learn and understand, you're not just selling a product—you're providing value that resonates on a deeper level. This approach not only builds trust but also sets the stage for long-term relationships that are beneficial for both parties. Sales isn't just about hitting targets; it's about asking the right questions, challenging assumptions, and being willing to explore new possibilities with your clients.

Over the years, Neil's career has evolved, taking him from large corporations like Salesforce to startups where he thrives in the challenge of creating predictable revenue streams in new and uncertain markets. His work with nonprofits, driven by the belief that even a small improvement in effectiveness can change the world, has cemented his reputation as a leader who cares deeply about the impact of his work and the success of his clients.

When executed correctly, involving the CEO can provide the gravitas and assurance needed to close complex deals, especially when selling to large organizations. However, without proper preparation, it can backfire, causing misalignment and confusion. Key triggers for involving the CEO include high-dollar deals, prestigious accounts, and significant lifetime value. The CEO's role should be clearly defined to convey confidence, vision, and commitment to the prospective client. Proper orchestration and practice are essential to ensure the CEO enhances rather than hinders the sales process.
