Is it a Strategy or a Tactic?

/in , , , , /by

If I had a dollar for everytime that topic came up – Strategy or Tactic -I’d be a rich man.

In this episode of the 2X Podcast, Bill emphasizes the power of a good sales tactic, regardless of your strategy. He also suggests that people look down at tactics, preferring to sound high-minded by babbling on about strategy.

Nothing happens in sales until you have a tactic that is delivered properly.

What’s The Big Idea?

/in , , , , /by

The process of creating and documenting ideas is elusive, isn’t it?

Do I keep it in a journal? Do I keep it on my phone? Do I write a quick article about it to keep it fresh?

And what about the BIG IDEAS? How do you “work them out”? Do you even get them?

In this episode of The 2X Podcast, Bill addresses a BIG IDEA around your customer – and how to develop it so it’s usable.

Aristotle first came up with the concept of Modes of Persuasion (furnished by the spoken word.)

In this episode of The 2X Podcast, Bill Caskey takes this and modernizes it a bit to help you see the criteria you are being judged on. That might be nice to know, huh? There are four parts to it.
