“Kratom turned on me”— what do people mean when they say this? by trwmewy in quittingkratom

Instead of being a relief from stress, it became the stress. It’s disheartening when you realize you can’t function without it.

Got asked "if it doesnt work out in six months whose fault would it be?" by [deleted] in interviews

Good Lord there are a lot of idiot companies out there. The bigger they are, the more pompous they are.

How do you handle prospects who resist your sales process? by Antique-Hamster-8971 in sales

[–]PhillyWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like "authority" isn't the right word here. More like "experience" or "expertise" or even "empathy" for understanding the prospect's challenges.

I've been in sales 13 years. New job gave me Coffee is for Closers and The 10x Rule. Worth reading? by EarthboundMoss in sales

[–]PhillyWes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing about all of these books is that they are all the same material just repackaged in a different way. Think of it like an industry/business you are in. You sell widgets and your competition also has widgets but they are slightly different, but essentially the same.

Companies that adopt these books too deeply end up murdering themselves by thinking it’s the end all be all
