Today, Darren joins us to share his expertise in the field of marketing, sales, and lead generation. We look at areas of focus when trying to improve sales, get some advice on making a good pitch, and examine ways in which business owners may struggle with marketing and sales. We discuss the sales funnel, what the most important step may be, and how to gain an edge in the consideration stage. We also talk about lead generation in small businesses, having multiple forms going at once, and how it differs in b2b vs b2c.
