Or, the biz card or professional profile on LinkedIn is full of marketing and sales spiel and lingo which appears light-hearted and almost self-deprecating, with pseudo-titles created for what they do.

But here is the epiphany I had in working with these focus groups and capturing their issues and insights: Customer Relationship Management has been hijacked by software technology.

Scaling a sales organization is both exciting and a little terrifying. Having been in sales for thirty-eight years, I know there’s a lot on the line, and a lot of things that can go wrong if you don’t know what you’re doing. Additionally, curating your sales content is critical.
