Sales Stories IRL

The buying landscape in B2B is forever changed. 

Why aren't we studying buyer behavior more consistently? 

Buyers can now shop from more competitors than ever with overlapping functionality, try before they buy, read countless reviews about your company, review industry studies, and easily find content relevant to the challenges their industry faces.  

The time is now for salespeople to become more buyer centric in their selling approach.  

Sales Stories IRL is the only podcast connecting salespeople to the core of consumer behavior - exploring why people buy, or don't buy.
