Manage episode 491801884 series 2875605
In this weeks’ Scale Your Sales Podcast episode, my guest is Nick Buxton.
Nick has a background in engineering, 2x CRO, and 5x VP of Sales. Over the past 20 years I've worked my way up from individual contributor at seed, Series A- C, privately held, FTSE and NYSE listed tech companies. He is now helping tech companies deliver revenue transformation projects with a range of partners.
In today’s episode of Scale Your Sales podcast, Nick shares his value-led growth approach and why breaking down silos between sales, marketing, and customer success is key to building customer-centric organizations. He and Janice explore the difference between solving user problems vs. business needs, the impact on go-to-market strategy, and the evolving role of CROs as AI and sales enablement continue to reshape the future of sales.
