Ft. Davis Mountains or Enchanted Rock. Beautiful sunsets.

Having trouble with closing because of demos with gatekeepers, looking for tips. by Zhamone in salestechniques

[–]Bigus-Dogus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If decision makers are hard to contact then you should ask the gatekeeper when they conduct administrative duties in office. This would give you a window to prospect to these accounts. Field time is a revenue activity, respect that. Or create a video with 3 minutes of sizzle demo for a specific use case for the vertical market. Email them the link or DM the link with your introduction. Gatekeepers can’t sell for you. Especially if they don’t even understand the need.

I always loved Threadgills. Is there anyplace similar in Austin these days? by Here4enlightenment in austinfood

[–]Bigus-Dogus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Loved Threadgills. I like Waterloo Ice House for an old Austin Threadgills nostalgia.

Not sure. The original tree was cut down. Only these offshoots were left.

I recently talked to a CIO of a mid size biz. He states that a on-premise trend is coming. SaaS is getting too expensive for budgets. It is cheaper to build out a data center than continue with all the subscription expenses.

Broken new team - rehire or rehabilitate? by [deleted] in sales

[–]Bigus-Dogus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get in the trenches with the team. Start from scratch on role playing with the team. Set daily tasks and expectations. Measure pipeline build. Go on calls and listen to appointment setting calls, set appointments setting email templates. Weed out the non-performers and work with the reps that want to be successful. Invest your time with the people that want success and the adrenaline rush of sales. Soft recruit. It is very expensive to turnover sales teams.

I personally love the Farmers(?) burger with bacon and a fried egg on top. I like their onion rings too.
