If you're moving into sales from a completely different industry, you're probably wondering which matters more: how likable you are or how well you run your process. In this Ask Jeb, Andrew, a former manufacturing supervisor from Manhattan, Kansas now building a sales career, asks Jeb Blount to settle the debate between people skills and sales mechanics.Jeb breaks sales down into two forces that both matter: the poetry of messaging and relationship building, and the probability of running a consistent process. He explains why he'll bet on a process person over a "gift of gab" person almost every time, why tricks and tactics fail the moment a prospect sees through them, and why the one metric he tracks above all else is qualified first time appointments, the Moneyball number that predicts everything downstream.What You'll Learn:How to diagnose whether a slump is a targeting problem or a skills problemHow to build a qualification process around the are the one metric that matters most in your businessWhy Jeb bets on a process-driven salesperson over a naturally charming oneWhy sales is both an art and a scienceHow the "alternatives equal power" principle plays out in every deal you're chasingHow a mindset from manufacturing applies directly to building a sales systemWhy relationship building matters, but never at the expense of running your processIf you're new to sales and trying to figure out where to focus first, this episode gives you the framework to build your foundation the right way.Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsDownload our FREE Prospecting Call Tracking SheetFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
What does it really take to build something great? It’s grind and refusing to stay down when you hit a wall. In this week’s Money Monday, Jeb Blount Jr. shares the story behind Sales Gravy’s early Everest and how the company scaled it instead of giving in. From the COVID-era studio investment that turned into a global advantage, to a strategic hire who walked away three weeks in, Jeb reveals that there really is no secret formula. You just have to get back up, again and again. 📖 Purchase Jeb Blount's new book, 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales Skills👉 Download Our Free Business Owner’s Guide to Hiring Salespeople🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Ask a top performer what makes them successful, and they will often tell you, "I've just got great relationships." But that's not something a sales leader can coach or teach to the rest of the team. In this episode, sales advisor and author Jeff Bajorek joins Jeb Blount Jr. to break down how leaders can push past that response and uncover the specific, repeatable behaviors, from always picking up the phone to making one more call at the end of the day. He also covers why relationship-building looks different for every rep, and how leaders can coach to a process without forcing everyone into the same exact playbook.📖 Purchase Jeb Blount's book, 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales Skills👉 Want to become a better sales coach?

How do you know when a third party lead generating service is actually worth what you're paying for it, and should your team be leaving a voicemail on every single call?In this week's Ask Jeb, Jeb Blount answers two questions, one from Mike, who runs a commercial signage business selling into real estate developers, general contractors, and architects, and one from Michael, whose SDRs are making 50 to 75 calls a day.Jeb's answer to Mike is simple: in most B2B spaces, you never fully give up on a lead. Once a project closes, that lead moves into a nurturing campaign, not the trash, and a good lead gen partner earns its keep by spotting new opportunities before they're too far down the road.For Michael, Jeb breaks down the three tier calling structure his own team uses to decide who gets a call, who gets a voicemail, and who gets cut loose, plus why building a homogenous list makes that whole process faster.What You'll Learn:Why B2B leads should almost never be fully abandoned, even after a project closesWhat separates a lead gen service worth paying for from one that's just handing you a listHow to build a three tier calling structure using qualified leadsWhy inbound leads should always get called before any cold outreachWhen it makes sense to skip the voicemail entirely on a cold listHow building a homogenous prospecting list speeds up your voicemail messagingThe five step voicemail framework that gets you on and off the phone in under a minuteWhether you're running a signage company chasing commercial real estate projects or managing a team of SDRs working a cold list, this episode gives you two practical frameworks: one for knowing when to let a lead go quiet, and one for knowing exactly who to call first.Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsDownload our FREE Prospecting Call Tracking SheetFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today's buyers have already done the research before they ever talk to a seller, so why do deals still stall out? Victor Antonio joins Jeb Blount Jr. to break down buyer resistance as a physics problem and says that friction, not objections, is what actually kills deals. They dig into why AI-educated buyers don’t need sellers to educate them; they need someone to validate what they’ve learned and give them the confidence to decide. They navigate what that shift means for sellers standing in the last mile of the decision. Victor also previews his session at this year's Outbound Conference, focused on the future of selling in an AI-driven market.🎟️ Grab your tickets for OutBound Conference📝 Download the FREE Small Business Guide to Sales Training🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
If you sell into large companies, the biggest mistake you can make is prospecting the obvious title instead of the right one.In this episode of Ask Jeb on the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount answers a question from Martin, who runs a high-end corporate gifting business and wants to know how to get decision makers at Fortune 500 companies to pay attention.Jeb's answer starts with a simple filter: are these gifts going to employees or to customers? That single question determines whether you start in HR or in sales and marketing, and it changes everything about your prospecting approach. From there, Jeb walks through how to build a target list, how to use tools like ZoomInfo paired with LinkedIn to map an org chart and find real contact information, and why case studies and testimonials are the fastest way to make a new prospect feel safe saying yes.What You'll Learn:How to decide between targeting inside a large accountHow to use tools like ZoomInfo paired with LinkedIn to build an org chart and find the right contactWhy big company buyers are motivated by avoiding risk more than by getting excited about your productHow to use existing customers as case studies and testimonials to build trust with new prospectsHow many target accounts you actually need in your pipeline to make relationship-based selling pay offWhat to do before you ever hire your first salesperson as a small business ownerWhether you're trying to break into your first Fortune 500 account or building out a sales team for the first time, this episode gives you a practical framework for finding the right person to sell to and proving you're safe to do business with.Submit your question: salesgravy.com/askPurchase Jeb Blount's new book: 90 Days to Level Up Your Sales SkillsDownload our FREE Prospecting Call Tracking SheetFollow Jeb Blount on LinkedInAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
