Summary:
This week we're interviewing Samantha Price, a former kayak director turned global account director. Sam is a connection of a connection of a connection that I met through the Sales Success Community.
Sam shares her journey from kayaking to sales, emphasizing the need for passion and creating meaningful experiences in her work. You might not think a tour guide needs to sell you when you're going out to see whales but Sam will tell you how she approached the job that's different from how most tour guides might operate. And how that love for the environment sparked a career in software sales
We share personal stories like this that highlight the power of unexpected connections, exceptional customer service experiences, and the importance of community.
You'll learn how to put "unreasonable hospitality" into your personal life, the importance of being a little more curious when someone tells you how they're doing, and create change by focusing on meaningful interactions with whomever you're selling.
