So today, everyone has a side hustle, or so it seems. Almost everyone in sales seems to be into real estate, either “multi-family” real-estate or getting their broker’s license. Or other so-called “passive” income streams that really often take many hours to manage. And so many folks are coaches, selling courses, and more.

AI is sure to have fundamental ripple effects in SEO , but I’m predicting that the importance of establishing authority won’t be diminished. Your content will now be battling with even more competition: AI results in the SERP and AI-produced content from other publishers. Delivering signals of authority and value will be more vital than ever. As long as organizations and individuals are still publishing content, backlinks will be an important part of that authority.

I read a post by a respected sales expert on “Information Asymmetry.” Oversimplifying it, the premise was sellers and customers struggle with buying because we have much more knowledge about our products than the customer, as a result, we have to reduce that asymmetry in how we educate our customers about our products. This is probably correct, at least for the part of the customer change process that focuses solely on product/solution selection.

Dear SaaStr: What remarks have a salesperson said to you that lost them the sale? A quick list here: “You are wasting my time”. I don’t think this was meant to be said aloud, but many B-tier reps say and think this all the time. No. A prospect’s time is always valuable. Sales is there to serve. If sales was routed the wrong lead, that’s the company’s fault, not the prospect’s.
