I joined David Premier on the Cerebral Selling podcast. 

 

David started his career tinkering with test tubes and differential equations as an award-winning research scientist before spending the next 20 years leading top-performing sales teams at high-growth technology companies including Salesforce, where he was the Vice President of Commercial Sales and creator of the Sales Leadership Academy program.

 

We talked about playing the mental and emotional game as sellers work through pipeline turbulence, role changes, and self-doubt - which plays a huge part in every quota crushers journey.

 

I'm grateful he invited me onto his show and hope you enjoy the episode!

Ian Koniak has $100M in career sales to his name across 18 years in the industry and has had numerous finishes as a #1 sales rep, most notably at Salesforce. He is now a 7-figure sales and mindset coach and today is a special episode because this guest is actually my coach, who I’ve been working with over the past 14-15 weeks or so and since then has become an invaluable mentor and friend. 

 

Today’s episode is going to be somewhat of a live coaching call to talk about how I’ve changed since we started working together and what we still need to continue working on.
