Susan Lee, Group Vice President, MOI:
Take time to recognize the team that supports you. We are often moving so fast that sometimes we forget to thank those who support the selling efforts day in and day out.

Vince Burruano, Vice President Sales, Commercial Division, JK Moving:
Since most people are working from home, it can be difficult to reach them by phone. But we have discovered is that clients, and prospects, are reading and responding to emails with a much greater frequency. In some cases, not only are we getting an email response, but, more importantly, the opportunity to schedule a phone call or virtual meeting. In some cases, we are doing the early qualification process entirely by phone or video – which allows us to stay safe, keep others safe, while still developing future business and serving our clients.

Paul Borror, Major Accounts, State and Local Government Sales, Flexera:
Remember to always build a coalition of the willing. You need a team inside the customer and insider your company to make sure you are covering the customer’s needs from all angles and your company can provide the complete solution.

Jennifer Fisher, Vice President, Higher Education, WorldStrides.
Now is the time to reach out to prospective clients. Share value, knowledge and freely give information – this is how you build trust and become a trusted advisor!

Eric Trexler, Vice President, Forcepoint:
The new normal, as I call it, is changing constantly. Understand what that is, work with friends, work with peers, try to figure it out.
