What Every Sales Rep Should Know About Decision Makers (Especially Right Now!)

Posted May 22, 2020

For the last 16 years, I’ve had various decision making roles and I can tell you, without hesitation, that I never knew (and still don’t know) where my next great idea is going to come from.

I can also tell you, without hesitation, that I’m smart enough to know that I’m not smart enough to have ALL the answers to my challenges.

Sometimes I’ve even a tad guilty of not seeing a bigger picture, or an opportunity.

That’s why, as a decision maker, I take calls, emails, etc from sales reps;

Especially right NOW!

Most leaders will, provided that you approach them with something relevant, and forgive me for saying this;

Especially if you come equipped with a tourniquet to stop the bleeding!

Somebody needs you right now;

Your job is to find them!

Please think about that the next time you hesitate to reach out to a decision maker!
