Strengthening Relationships Through Passion, Plan, & Purpose – Outside Sales Talk with Jon Ferrara

Jon Ferrara is the Founder and CEO of Nimble, an industry leading CRM with contact management solutions for teams and individuals for social selling.
Prior to Nimble, Jon co-founded GoldMine Software Corporation, an early pioneer in SFA and CRM software tools which was later acquired in 1999.

In this episode, Jon discusses the importance of being passionate about what you’re selling and to take time to understand your prospect and their needs before you meet with them.
Here are some of the topics covered in this episode:
- Finding a job that aligns with your passions
- Use the five Fs to connect with prospects
- Share your knowledge on how you can help your prospect be better, smarter, and faster
