AI, automation, and fancy sales tech. It's basically what everyone ever talks about right? Bet let's not forget - the fundamentals still win. After 15+ years in sales, these basics consistently outperform any shiny new tool: Listen more than you talk (Your customer's voice matters more than your pitch) Truly understand customer needs (Not just their business - their actual challenges) Stay authentic throughout (People buy from people they trust) Stay curious (The best sellers are eternal students) The most successful sellers I know? They're not the ones with the fanciest tech stack. They're the ones who master these basics. Every. Single. Day. Simple beats sophisticated. Back to basics = Back to growth.
