As we approach the end of the year, sales teams are feeling the pressure to close deals and hit their targets. But all too often, there's a disconnect between sales and marketing that can hinder success. How can we bridge that divide and ensure that both teams are working together seamlessly?


In this episode, we're joined by Mike Chudy, a seasoned sales consultant and the founder of Austin Sales Consulting. Mike shares his insights on how sales and marketing can collaborate more effectively, especially during the crucial Q4 and Q1 periods.



In This Episode, we'll explore:

-Common challenges sales teams face in Q4, and how marketing can help overcome them

-Effective communication strategies for sales to convey their needs to the marketing team

-The top marketing assets sales teams need to succeed in Q1

-How to use analytics and customer feedback to refine your marketing collateral

But here's the key takeaway: Sales and marketing alignment isn't just a one-time initiative. It requires ongoing communication, collaboration, and a willingness to adapt based on data and feedback. Doing this can set your team up for success not just in Q4 and Q1, but all year long.
