Episode notes
Win-Loss analysis isn't just with buyers – while it is buyer intelligence at the end of the day, your sellers are a major part of the sales process that can't be dismissed. Interviewing your sellers paints the ENTIRE picture of the deal. And nobody knows this better than Dan Hamilton, VP of Corporate Strategy at Salesforce. They've built an incredible Win-Loss program and have been interviewing sellers for years... because they have so many sellers and they know how valuable it is.
