2026 Will Be the Year of the Buyer
2025/12/17
2026 will be the year of the buyer. The question is: Are you actually ready for it?
In this episode, I’m joined by Kristie K. Jones to break down what’s changing in B2B sales and what sales leaders need to do now to avoid falling behind.
We talk about:
Why buyers are more informed, skeptical, and selective than ever
How traditional sales behaviors are quietly working against you
What sellers must unlearn before 2026 arrives
The role leadership plays in preparing teams for a buyer-first world
How clarity, expectations, and process matter more than pressure
This isn’t a prediction episode.
It’s a preparation episode.

How to Beat Your Biggest Competitor: Status Quo
2025/11/11
Most deals don’t die to competitors – they die to “good enough.”
In this episode of The Podcast for Sales Managers, I sit down with Jen Allen-Knuth, one of the most respected voices in B2B sales, to tackle the real enemy of progress: buyers choosing to do nothing.
Jen shares her journey from account management to new-logo sales and how she learned to turn passive prospects into active buyers. Together, we unpack the psychology behind stalled deals, why empathy beats persuasion, and how to reframe every conversation around the Cost of Inaction (COI), without coming across as pushy.
