Paul M. Caffrey’s The Prepared Seller moves past surface-level sales tips to explore the foundational habits and strategic thinking that separate consistent performers from the rest. Grounded in Paul’s experience and the principles from his book "The Work Before the Work," each episode focuses on the deliberate preparation that happens long before a pitch is made or a contract is signed. You’ll hear practical discussions on refining your prospecting approach, navigating complex deal cycles, and leveraging technology thoughtfully within a modern sales process.
