Tony Morris wants you to say less so you'll win more. It's his mantra for prospecting. Tony sat down with Jeb Blount Jr. to discuss how he has reframed his process so that he's not focused on being the seller, but on helping people be the buyer. He shares his rule that every month without contact costs you a slice of the relationship, and why he sends prospects books, articles, and webinar links with no ask attached. This approach breaks through buyer resistance more easily and gets you better conversations with your prospects. Tony will be at Outbound this year talking more about his process and why focusing on curiosity over closing creates more opportunity.🎟️ Grab your tickets for OutBound Conference💻 Enroll in Sales Gravy University Courses with Tony Morris👉 Download our free A.C.E.D.

How do you actually know someone can sell before you've hired them, trained them, and found out the hard way?In this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount answers two hiring questions from Ramesh: how to find and hire the right salespeople, and whether that approach changes for a small company versus a large one.Jeb's answer: he's made the same hiring mistakes every leader makes, even after building a career on turning struggling sales teams around. Hiring is part process and part gut, there is no magic formula to get it right every time. The good news is you can stack the odds heavily in your favor with the right approach.What You'll Learn:How whether a role is heavy hunting, heavy account management, or a hybrid should shape who you hireWhere assessments fit into the hiring process and whyHow to build an assessment stack depending on the complexity of the roleHow to ask situational interview questions tailored to pushed past rehearsed answers Why bringing multiple people into the interview process catches what one person reviewing candidates alone will missHow a candidate's energy in an interview can mislead you if you don't weigh it against other signalsWhy small companies face higher hiring stakes than large companies, and how to protect yourself from a costly bad hireHow a long hiring cycle can cost you strong candidates to competitors who move fasterWhether you're building your first sales team or creating a hiring process at scale, this episode gives you a practical framework for making better hiring decisions.-Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsGrab your tickets for OutBound ConferenceFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInOur Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.

Admitting your company needs sales leadership is one of the hardest calls a founder makes, and one of the smartest. Duff Tucker walks you through seven critical signs that your company has outgrown founder-led sales, from reps getting check-ins instead of real coaching to a forecast that's become a guess instead of a weekly discipline. Duff breaks down what each sign actually looks like and how to spot it in your own company. Showing even one of the seven warning signs is reason enough to consider bringing on a fractional sales leader.🖋️ Read When to Hire a Fractional Sales Leader: 7 Signs Your Company is Ready🧑💼 Learn more about Sales Gravy’s Fractional Sales Leadership Solutions💻 Enroll in Sales Gravy University Courses with Duff Tucker🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn!Our Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.

It sounds unusual, modeling an entire sales methodology off the principles of therapy. But it’s exactly what Jack Frimstone and Zac Thompson did, and it works. Jack and Zac, co-founders of the UK sales consultancy We Have a Meeting, sat down with Jeb Blount Jr. to break down this idea, which they discuss in their book, Sales as Therapy. They go over prospecting techniques that uncover real, often personal stakes behind a buying decision. They also discuss two tools that get more guarded prospects to open up.📖 Purchase Jeb Blount's book, 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales Skills👉 Download our free A.C.E.D.

What do you say when a prospect tells you "we already have someone who does that"? In this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount tackles this objection with Rob, an outside sales rep who runs into it constantly while prospecting door to door.Jeb's core message: the real problem is who you're talking to. When you lead with an offer like a free quote or free inspection, gatekeepers default to sending you to procurement, and procurement is where your sales dreams go to die. Change what you open with, and you change who you end up in front of.What You'll Learn:How asking the right questions leads you to the actual decision makerWhy procurement is where deals stall and how to avoid ending up thereWhy leading with "free" anything triggers defensiveness and routes you straight to procurementHow a short morning call block can turn cold door knocking into scheduled appointmentsHow to turn a local, relationship-driven value proposition into your strongest differentiator against larger competitorsA script for handling the "we already have someone" objection once you're in front of the right personWhether you're selling compliance services, B2B solutions, or anything where a gatekeeper stands between you and the real decision maker, this episode gives you a practical way to change who you're talking to before you ever have to overcome an objection.-Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsGrab your tickets for OutBound ConferenceFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInOur Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.

Even the top sales reps can find themselves on the downward side of a spiral. Jeb Blount’s seen it happen many times, because he’s been there himself. Letting yourself fester in a sales rut can affect your attitude, your motivation, your team, and your job. In this episode, Jeb Blount explains how introspection and self-awareness can refocus your mindset and reroute your rut. He shares a time when his investment in himself brought him out of his rut and put him back on top of the team in just three months. 📖 Purchase Jeb Blount's new book, 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales Skills👉 Download Our Free Goal Planning Guide for Sales Professionals🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn!Our Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.

How do you run an effective sales blitz, and what's the fastest way to reconnect with cold leads you've already written off? In this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount answers two questions: Chris asks how to structure a sales blitz across existing customers and new logos, and Lindsay asks for Jeb's number one piece of advice for reconnecting with cold leads.Jeb's answer to Chris starts with a simple truth: a blitz on existing customers should take about 30 days, no longer. You already know who they are and where they are, so the only thing standing between you and results is picking up the phone. New logos take more structure: build a targeted list by persona, company size, and likelihood to buy, assign a closing goal per rep, and run a focused 30 day sprint with daily call targets and twice weekly accountability check ins before rotating to the next product. For Lindsay, Jeb's advice is easy: you revive dead leads by calling them. He backs it up with real numbers, including a rep who made 11 dials, reached 10 people, and turned four into pipeline opportunities from a completely random list, plus a story about a commercial kitchen equipment company that revived a dead deal into a multi restaurant order just by calling to check in.What You'll Learn:Why a 30 day blitz outperforms a 90 day blitz for existing customer campaignsHow to build a targeted new logo list using persona, company size, and buying likelihoodWhy leaders need to give reps the exact list, exact script, and exact call target instead of a vague directive to "go blitz"How twice weekly accountability check ins keep a blitz from losing momentumWhy picking up the phone still outperforms every other reactivation tactic for cold and closed lost leadsHow one rep turned 11 random dials into 4 pipeline opportunities in 20 minutesWhy you should be calling closed lost deals from months or years ago, not just recent onesHow a single reactivation call turned an old dead deal into a multi location orderWhether you're planning a product launch blitz or sitting on a pile of cold leads you've written off, this episode gives you a clear, practical framework for turning both into revenue.-Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsGrab your tickets for OutBound ConferenceFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInOur Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.
