Welcome to my annual list of the best sales and sales leadership content of 2023. This year’s list has thirteen entries, including articles, videos, and LinkedIn posts. There are several categories including Most Read, Most Liked, Most Engagement, Best Quality and Personal Favorite. Ready?
2023 saw more content than ever before and that certainly includes the sales space. There were 2 billion Blog posts last year and on WordPress alone, there are more than 400 million Blogs. That’s a shit ton of competition! With that in mind, allow me to share the results from 2023.
With the exception of my Personal Favorite, the results below are based on web analytics of nearly 2 million visits to my Blog, Understanding the Sales Force and my LinkedIn posts.
Personal Favorite –

For what it’s worth, in 2023, videos posted on LinkedIn had significantly more views, likes and engagement than articles. Look for more videos in 2024 and a fun new self-directed sales course called Movie Night. This course will skip the theory, instruction and role-play. In its place I’ll share popular scenes from movies and television that are perfect analogies for the most important moments in the sales cycle. After that, we’ll be revamping our entire online self-directed Baseline Selling course with fresh new video and instruction.
I’m very excited about 2024!
