6-Figure Sales Expert Calls You Out [Don’t Keep Doing This in 2026]
Podcast 46:47 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes
Sticking rigidly to your sales scripts, hiring and firing sales reps, and positioning yourself as a freelancer instead of the expert: these mistakes will cost you in 2026 if you don’t address them now.
6-figure fractional sales manager, Jeff Pecaro, joins us once again to reveal his best sales insights and call us out on the mistakes we need to leave behind in 2025.
Plus, we get into how he and other 6-7 figure businesses inside Dynamite Circle are scaling with just one human and multiple bots.
