27 FEB 2024 · The sales profession has evolved, but one thing has remained the same: the power and importance of mentorship. Where sales leaders once learned in person from each other in unstructured meetings — office banter, going to lunch, connecting at conferences or networking events — many of today’s professionals now work primarily from home. So how can we foster growth and success in today’s sales leaders? The answer remains the same, but the execution looks a little different.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/tripledeee/, operating executive at https://www.marlinequity.com/, is a skilled mentor with a strong commitment to returning the energy and input he received as an up-and-coming professional. In the last episode of Winning the Challenger Sale podcast before a hiatus, Andee and Dan reflect on how mentorship has evolved, where sales professionals should look for growth today, and the current (and future) state of the field.
Join us as we discuss:
- Raising awareness of the sales profession
- The new abundance of opportunities for mentorship and individual development
- The direct roadmap of sales roles to leadership positions
13 FEB 2024 · What does account-based marketing (ABM) look like in 2024?
For most people, they talk about it as a platform, and not a strategy.
When you embrace ABM as a critical part of your GTM strategy, you can break down internal barriers and bring marketing, sales and customer together to create the ultimate account experience.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristinajaramillo/, president of http://personalabm.com/, argues that this team approach creates top-tier account experiences, allowing teams to work in unison to drive greater revenue, and expand and retain existing clients, ultimately diminishing the continued challenge to do more with less.
We discuss:
- The importance of ABM and how you can use it to double your revenue
- How to develop doubt-proof business cases for client expansion and gaining client trust
- Achieving a holistic team effort utilizing cross-departmental strategy and integration
30 GEN 2024 · For sellers, the past few years have shown that feast or famine, repeatable and dependable sales process wins every time.
https://www.linkedin.com/in/kendra-tucker-4102491/, CEO at https://truckstop.com/, joins Challenger CEO Andee Harris on this episode to talk about what she’s learned from her experience in private equity and as a sales leader. Kendra talks about how process guided Truckstop through the turbulent pandemic era, the cost of inaction, and brings advice for sellers and sales leaders to navigate this unusual economy (and win more deals).
Join us as we discuss:
- Closing deals when buyers face uncertainty
- Navigating the cost of indecision (COI)
- Leaning into processes during good and bad economic times
23 GEN 2024 · You know your conversion rates, historical conversion rates, and territory inside and out. You have more data at your fingertips than ever before and your buyers keep saying yes — but then they don’t sign (or worse, disappear.). As sales leaders look back at 2023, many of them find themselves asking where things went wrong with customers during the final mile and what they can do in 2024 to improve their forecast accuracy.
In this episode, our guest https://www.linkedin.com/in/gdhendricks/, key account executive at https://challengerinc.com/, suggests the problems aren’t from the final mile, but from tactical approaches earlier in the buying process. In this episode, he and Andee Harris break down:

16 GEN 2024 · 2024 promises more obstacles than ever for sellers, with increasingly elongated sales cycles, creeping increased indecision and tighter budgets. But what exactly does that mean for you and your sales team?
Despite this bleak outlook, https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-doyon/, co-founder and CEO of https://triplesession.com/ and author of “https://www.amazon.com/Revenue-Revolution-Designing-Building-High-Performing/dp/1394196377,” has a striking forecast: this year, the top 20% of sales professionals will have their best year yet. The middle 60% will struggle. And bottom 20%? They’re likely to find themselves out of a job. Fortunately, you have the power to push yourself into the top tier, making 2024 a year to thrive.
We discuss:
- Tactical advice for reps to implement today for a successful year ahead
- Why there’s no room left for the lowest-performing reps (and how you can ensure you’re not one of them)
- Why this year spells disaster for the “Lone Wolf,” and why the Challenger will come out on top
