Over here at the Sales on the Rocks podcast, we would argue with anyone that sales is the most important part of your business and it should be treated as such. We know that you can’t afford to spend hours and hours every day trying to figure out what content to post on social media or how many emails to send out each week. In this podcast, we discuss the importance of setting goals, how we should be shooting for the moon, and why we need to focus on building relationships with our clients through sales instead of wasting time creating marketing content for them.
