Julie Ewald from Impressa Solutions joined us at the Agency Connect podcast.
Impressa Solutions is an inbound marketing and sales enablement agency that specializes in working with B2B folks in tech, lots of software and SaaS folks, and also consultancies.
“If I get a really bad pitch or if someone messed up their sequence to me as part of their sales process, I’ll email back, tell them what to do better, and CC their boss, or their boss’s boss. Basically anyone I can find on Linkedin. I’ll reach out and try to sell them or reply to them why they need to revamp their sales process and offer them sales training. Vendors ned to respect you but then the opportunity for the agency to bring it under control is actually quite interesting.”

this is something of course that even
00:06:17.600 –> 00:06:19.110
this is something of course that even
has to happen in scoping for folks that
00:06:19.110 –> 00:06:19.120
has to happen in scoping for folks that

starting out with with this audit to see
00:06:29.430 –> 00:06:29.440
starting out with with this audit to see
00:06:29.440 –> 00:06:31.350

if things are in line with what we
00:06:31.350 –> 00:06:31.360
if things are in line with what we
00:06:31.360 –> 00:06:33.510
if things are in line with what we
suspect would should be going on and
00:06:33.510 –> 00:06:33.520
suspect would should be going on and
00:06:33.520 –> 00:06:35.350
suspect would should be going on and
also if the story that the data is
00:06:35.350 –> 00:06:35.360
also if the story that the data is
00:06:35.360 –> 00:06:36.710
also if the story that the data is
telling and the story that the setup is

telling and the story that the setup is
00:06:36.720 –> 00:06:38.790
telling and the story that the setup is
telling shows that there is you know any
00:06:38.790 –> 00:06:38.800
telling shows that there is you know any
00:06:38.800 –> 00:06:40.950

starting out with these audits but then
00:06:48.800 –> 00:06:51.110
starting out with these audits but then
um learning about their actual processes
00:06:51.110 –> 00:06:51.120
um learning about their actual processes
00:06:51.120 –> 00:06:52.870
um learning about their actual processes
and how they actually do things uh what
00:06:52.870 –> 00:06:52.880
and how they actually do things uh what

things are their prior you know what are
00:06:54.240 –> 00:06:55.589
things are their prior you know what are
their priorities what is the kind of
00:06:55.589 –> 00:06:55.599
their priorities what is the kind of
00:06:55.599 –> 00:06:57.510
their priorities what is the kind of
information that they need uh what would

information that they need uh what would
00:06:57.520 –> 00:06:59.589
information that they need uh what would
be valuable data points where where
00:06:59.589 –> 00:06:59.599
be valuable data points where where
00:06:59.599 –> 00:07:01.029
be valuable data points where where
they’re missing out where those where we
00:07:01.029 –> 00:07:01.039
they’re missing out where those where we
00:07:01.039 –> 00:07:03.029
they’re missing out where those where we
see opportunities as well and then kind
00:07:03.029 –> 00:07:03.039
see opportunities as well and then kind
00:07:03.039 –> 00:07:04.550
see opportunities as well and then kind
