Talk 1:1

Why Talk 1:1?

According to entrepreneur, author, and motivational speaker Jim Rohn, "To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself:
First, what could I do?
Second, what could I read?
And third, who could I ask?"

For sales executives, the toughest of the three is the last.
CEOs can call Bain or McKinsey
CFOs can call their accountants or lawyers;
CIOs can call Gartner or IDC.
But who do CSOs have to call?

You can tap into your personal network, of course.
You have a handful of trusted advisors.
Beyond them, who has actual research, respected reports, and statistics, not just stories, to address pressing problems?

Who can provide you the chart you need to support your argument?
Who has a graphic that shows your Board your strategy is appropriate?
What can you use to counter the chart the CFO presented to reallocate budget?

CSO Insights was formed for exactly this reason.
The founding partners have each started, grown and sold software companies.
We have consulted with hundreds of companies of all sizes.
We were - and remain - practicing sales professionals for more than thirty years.
We have felt your pain and formed CSO Insights to address your issues.

When you schedule a Talk 1:1 call:
You won't be talking to a twenty-something MBA offering abstract numbers.
You won't be getting a consultant or trainer with some pre-set bromide.
You will get a seasoned veteran offering a sounding board with suggestions supported by statistics compiled from more than two thousand companies each year.

Some firms charge more than $30,000 per year for membership to access their analysts.

You can start with CSO Insights for as little as $500.

Don't think of it as cheap consulting.

Think of it as cheap insurance.

Think of it as peace of mind, knowing you're going into your upcoming meeting prepared and supported.
