From Accounts to People - Sean Adams, VP of Revenue, Iorad
Summary:
This conversation, I invite someone who got to intentionally know me and who I've worked a little harder for because of how he's made an impact on me. In sales, we sometimes overthink the experience we need to give to people and Sean has found ways to simplify that.
Sean met me at a company event and we've developed a great friendship. What I love about how Sean sells is he is constantly thinking about how we can "over index" on his gives. He tells a story about how a tattoed pizza owner taught him everything he needed to know about sales and networking.
You'll learn how to emphasize the importance of understanding others' needs and being thoughtful in interactions, whether in sales or your personal life. We also cover networking strategies and the value of making genuine connections, highlighting how small gestures can have a profound impact on relationships.
If you can think of a person in your life that just sells you on them as a person and people enjoy being around because of that, this is the episode for you!
