Conversation: Selling to Big Companies, it Can Be Done

5/24/2005

If you have ever had dreams of landing that BIG customer — the “whale” of the business world — then you won’t want to miss our latest recording.

Jill Konrath joined us for a 45-minute Conversation. In it she explained what small businesses need to do to snag that big company as a customer (hint: perseverance is a major factor).

Jill Konrath is the founder of a website called SellingtoBigCompanies.com (how’s that for descriptive?). She is a great resource for salespeople and entrepreneurs who want to win big contracts with large corporations. Her clients have included well-known corporate giants such as 3M, Hilton, General Mills and Medtronic.

I got a tremendous amount of value out of it, and I am sure you will also.

Go here to listen to Jill.
