Killer Media Sales

Dealing with competition is always challenging. But in the media sales industry it’s particularly hard when that “competition or competitor” you’re dealing with has a “win-lose” mentality. Usually there’s a level of mutual respect between like-minded competitors and they recognise that bad mouthing, sledging and casting aspersions on the integrity of the material they are putting out doesn’t benefit anyone. But what should you do when a competitor fights below the belt? What if they don’t have the level of respect and integrity that you expect? In this episode of Killer Media Sales, Alex Whitlock and Russell Stephenson talk about the bad practices that tend to come from certain organisations in the media sales industry. They also share the key attributes of successful media sales people who best handle these types of situations. This is an episode that you can’t miss.
