Title: New Sales. Simplified.
Author: Mike Weinberg
Category: Sales, Branding & Marketing, Startups & Entrepreneurship
What if the reason your pipeline is empty isn't a bad market, but a bad habit? Sam and Sophie dig into Mike Weinberg's New Sales. Simplified., a book that says most sellers are dangerously distracted.
They walk through the Prospecting Trinity — mindset, skillset, toolset — and why mindset is the foundation. Then the 30-second value proposition, the pain funnel, and the Feel Felt Found objection play. Weinberg's weekly formula — ten conversations, five prospects, two deals — turns anxiety into a daily target.
If you've been hiding in your CRM with a full dashboard and an empty pipeline, this episode is the kick you need. The takeaway: sales is simple, but not easy, and it starts with a phone call.
