Most of the criminals are repeat offenders and those who are captured and arrested are usually back on the street committing additional crimes later that day due to cashless bail.

It seems everything in my feed is dominated by “SaaS Selling.” It may be the algorithm–we do have a heavy technology and software client base. But 50% of our clients are in other sectors.

Long ago, do you remember when you first heard your own voice? Maybe it was a tape recording, or on a DVD, or a video, but most of us will remember that day. Do you know why? The answer is because that was the day we decided we despised the way we sounded. Strangely enough, everyone else we heard that day sounded just fine; just not us. When it comes to embracing the way we actually sound, we were, and for most of us, still are, our own worst enemy.

If you knew my background, you’d probably never peg me as the CEO of a growing tech company. I grew up in the hoods of the Bay Area in California, the son of a single mother. I survived my first drive-by shooting at the age of 8. The homes on both sides of us got hit. I still remember playing outside in the days afterward, my small fingers tracing the bullet holes in the cars out front.

Every company has aspirations for a sales coaching culture, where frontline managers have the time, tools, and expertise to meet the individualized needs of every revenue producer, and align instruction with company-wide goals. In practice, however, until now I’ve never worked at a company where this vision was more than a pipe dream.
