He explains the need for sales teams to focus on tuning their messages and understanding customer needs before prioritizing numbers. The conversation delves into the nuances of quality craft at different stages of the sales process, the challenges of enabling salespeople to align with this notion, and the impact of cross-functional collaboration in achieving sales excellence.
