QUOTES
The SaaS industry when it comes to educating reps - Krysten: "The first thing you've talked about many times is practice and the second thing is synthesis. Most organizations do not carve out time for their reps to practice. They don't dedicate any time to practice and they're not coaching them in that practice either."
Having the mindset of self-development and taking ownership - Krysten: "I think both can be true. It can be true that you didn't get any good coaching and it can also be true that you didn't do any work. It can be true that you need to do work and the company needs to provide input. Half of your income in sales depends on your ability to execute. If you're not motivated by that, I don't understand you."
