Startup Selling: Talking Sales with Scott Sambucci

Over the past twenty years, I’ve led three Silicon Valley startups to their first customers and revenue, and sold everything from financial data, enterprise software, and vaporware to cabinet doors, amusement park daily programs, and “would you like fries with that…?” My customers have included the largest financial institutions in the world, top US Universities, cabinet door makers and people that eat at Applebees and go to amusement parks... I’ve learned a lot, and made a few, ahem, well… a lot, of mistakes. Here in The Sales Podcast with Scott Sambucci, I share the lessons learned from my past two decades of selling. In each episode, I discuss a specific topic in selling and sales strategy like how to find new prospective customers, how to manage leads, how to run an effective sales meeting, uncovering customer needs, and developing pricing strategies. Episodes are a mix of guest interviews, observations from the field, and sales techniques that I’m using every single day. And people that care about such things, I’ve written two books, been a TEDx Speaker, been featured on CNBC, The Financial Times and NPR. Oh… I’m also a husband, a dad, and a three-time Ironman triathlete. Build your sales process so that you can have the company you imagine. The Sales Podcast with Scott Sambucci will help you get there.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Scott Sambucci from SalesQualia on his Startup Selling Podcast recently to discuss digital marketing for startups.

We touch on the mistakes startups make when setting up their digital marketing strategy, how to pick your marketing channels, why you need to pick a niche and focus on it, and so much more…

The interview focuses both on how a startup business owner can improve their marketing, AND common mistakes everyone should avoid.

Here are just a few of the topics we tackled in our conversation:

  • The biggest mistakes startups make when setting up their marketing strategy.
  • How to reverse engineer your marketing.
  • Doing stuff and making noise vs driving towards specific results.
  • The importance of focusing on a niche vs trying to sell to everyone.
  • Why you need to set up strict KPIs for all of your marketing activities.
  • The different types of channel: How to select the right channels. What is channel bias and how to avoid it.

You can listen to the podcast over here on the SalesQualia website.

Enjoy!
