Hey all,

I’m writing again. Just typing that felt good!

It’s been awhile since my last newsletter after changing roles last October. I’ll publish seven top of mind thoughts from my experience of the previous week.

Themes will likely include sales, marketing, wellbeing, motivation, personal development, strategies and practical how-to articles (with some of my own content).  

. . .

Here are 7 things I thought were worth sharing this week: 

1. Summer is for closing! (Here’s an excellent article on managing your sales process with engagement plans). Not close plans. 

2. Good Twitter feed: @valaAfshar

3. Marketing in the age of Alexa: Interesting to ponder “Marketers’ current obsession with creating an omnichannel customer experience will fade as AI platforms become a powerful marketing medium, sales and distribution channel, and fulfillment and service center—all rolled into one.” 

4.  My fiance and I are both listening to Brendon Burchard’s High Performance Habits (one of the best self-development books I’ve read)

5. Advice for web leads: The most statistically significant revelation is that you increase your chances of reaching/qualifying a web lead 6 TIMES OVER if you call in the first hour of them submitting their information.

6. 10 lessons from Mary Meeker’s 2018 Trends Report that learning leaders need to know about

7. Mind blowing emoji for your mac — check out Rocket.
