Scott Barker: Adapting to the Changing Sales Landscape

Scott Barker’s career in sales has been incredibly successful. He’s been a sales manager, a business development representative, and even a strategic advisor for some incredible organizations. Most recently, he co-founded and became a partner of a venture capital fund known as GTMfund, and he’s seen firsthand what it really takes for an early-stage company to get off the ground. Listen in as John and Scott talk about his experiences, the importance of creativity and connectivity, the lack of fundamental sales knowledge in the SaaS space, and differences between the science and art of sales.
