Introducing But We're Different
Hey Solving Inbound listeners. We’re excited to announce the launch of a new show. Introducing But We’re Different — a podcast for sales and marketing practitioners with a different mindset. See, the way people buy has changed. In fact, it’s constantly changing. So why haven’t most companies changed the way they market and sell? The truth is, they're all thinking, “But We’re Different.” This doesn’t apply to us. This mindset is why most companies, B2B and B2C, fail to adapt to changes in the marketplace and struggle to grow. Hosted by Nick Bennett, and Zach Basner, But We’re Different is not just another sales and marketing podcast. Our mission is to use the insights gained from helping hundreds of companies shatter this mindset and help you set up the strategies and lay out the tactics you need to unlock new growth within your company. Now, in this feed, you can expect weekly episodes from our live virtual event, replays of any guest appearances on other great shows, and exclusives from the team of IMPACT sales and marketing coaches. You can find but we’re different everywhere you listen to great podcasts. We hope to see you over there. Spotify Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts But We're Different is recorded live every Tuesday at 3pm ET. If you'd like to join us, you can register here: https://bit.ly/3S68gye
