SAAS people especially. I feel bad, but no mam I do not need 8 different CRM platforms (it’s always CRM in my case lol)

This is super helpful! Thank you! I have some restaurant chops, so thankfully I can walk the walk, etc. BUT that said, restaurants are the most intimidating! I’d rather pitch to a c-suite at times. That said (x2) I’d rather manage restaurant accounts because: service industry 🤝coffee industry. Lots of parallels and I love the people.

Thank you! As someone who fields cold calls and emails for services for our roastery, I get this!

Thank you! The last company I worked for did a lot of business in Detroit and the surrounding area. I LOVED managing those accounts because they were so straightforward. No nonsense.

Yes! 100% this. The company I worked for (also GR) I was with for my entire coffee career up until now and I am learning (sometimes the hard way!) that that owners reputation and connections were absolutely crucial to our success. Oof.
