Plano, Texas, April 03, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- While few may want to admit it, people are often clueless about how to build and run an effective sales organization. They might not know where to turn when faced with issues they think they should understand. They may be in an environment that dreads change. They may have questions about sales that they’re just too darned embarrassed to ask. Fear not, help is at hand - and available wherever you subscribe to podcasts! “Real Sales Banter” is a new video podcast that features three experts (or at least three interesting people with opinions) bantering about real problems in the world of sales in an entertaining and informative way. But wait, who are these straight-talking sales heroes? The hosts of “Real Sales Banter” represent the worlds of journalism, sales technology, and sales consulting.   Gerhard Gschwandtner , CEO of Selling Power, Mark Hunter , CSP of The Sales Hunter and Darryl Praill , CMO of VanillaSoft gather each week to discuss sales and business strategy, share knowledge for building successful sales organizations, and whatever else may come to mind. They talk among themselves, with special guests, respond to listeners’ questions - and have fun doing it. “There are common problems in sales and the solutions often come down to finding the best balance between people, process and technology,” said Gschwandtner. “I wanted to create an environment for honest discussions around sales topics. Honest and fun. And when I think of honest and fun, I think of two people, Darryl and Mark. I’ll let you decide which one is honest and which one is fun.” Darryl, who is unfazed by this type of comment, said, “Each of us - as well as guests - brings a fresh and interesting perspective to the conversation. The time is right for exploding the myths and marking a path for more effective selling. Trust me.” Mark shared, “Sales is without a doubt the greatest profession. There is nothing I enjoy more than helping others be successful. Listeners are going to love the back-and-forth on this show and hopefully they’ll find some of it helpful. That’s my goal, to help people succeed - and if I can help this pair, I can help anyone.” “Real Sales Banter” will cover a broad range of topics of deep interest to inside sales and sales development pros. Currently available episodes discuss audacity, leadership, sports and, yes, whether size matters.
