Скачать или смотреть Ep 3 - The Process-Driven Sales Framework: The Power of Plan & Prepare

If your sales team is only spending 30% of their time inside the sales process, what exactly are they doing with the other 70%?

Dennis Deal Sorenson is the CEO of Cove Group and the host of Think Big, Win Bigger — a podcast for leaders and sellers who know they're capable of more but are tired of improvising their way through growth. In Episode 3, Dennis dives into the first two pillars of a process-driven sales system: Plan and Prepare. His core conviction? The best sellers don't wing it. They build ambition, define total account potential, and anchor their strategy in a clear, disciplined plan — because winning starts long before you play the game.

Dennis breaks down how intentional preparation — research, messaging, and sales assets — creates confidence and control before you ever step onto the field. He reveals why so many teams are spending as little as 30% of their time inside the process, what it means to be "productively selfish" with your calendar, and why leaders themselves are often the first to abandon discipline when the pressure hits. If you want predictable, scalable sales results, this episode shows exactly where to start.
