Sidetrade’s Post

Around 8:30am this morning, a colleague popped into my office and asked if I had a minute to chat as there was something they wished they'd shared with me at their recent 121. What Joseph Saxton shared was nothing short of inspiring and made my heart smile. A couple of weeks ago Joseph bought the car of his dreams and reflecting on the milestone Joseph told me how the car represented his hard work, dedication, and the personal goals he had set and achieved since joining the business in 2021 and he felt compelled to share the reasons why he loves working at Howarths. Not once did he mention pay or benefits. Instead, his enthusiasm was all about the fulfilment he gets from his role in the Client Success team. He spoke passionately about the joy he finds in supporting our clients, collaborating with our ecosystem of professional partners, and facilitating connections when our services don't directly meet a need, but we know someone who can help. Joseph appreciates the freedom and autonomy his role provides, as well as the continuous learning and development opportunities. He values the strong relationships he has built with his colleagues, the unwavering support, and the encouragement that flows both ways as well as the healthy competition he has with his Client Success partner, Stephanie Shackleton. Listening to Joseph this morning, reinforced for me that at Howarths, we are doing something right. Creating an environment where team members feel valued, supported, and inspired to achieve their personal and professional goals is at the heart of our business and that makes me incredibly proud 💙 Grafting Together with Heart and Grit 🙌 #culture #people #growth #leadership #teamwork #employeeengagement #business #values Throwback pic to our team social.

"Let your work do the talking!" OR "As an agency, you know the problem isn't about adding value - it's about communicating that value." These are the two common schools of thought you'll hear when talking about your work. But at Springzo, we're not buying into either of those extremes. We know we're doing some really good work, and we'd love to talk about it. Why? 1. It's a chance to be transparent and celebrate the wins with our team. Plus, it's a great way to show (not just tell) others what we're capable of. 2. As we move upmarket and work with more enterprise clients, they want to see the proof behind our promises. They want to read case studies and customer stories. So, here's one of our first case studies... It's a work in progress, but as we say, "kaizen" is our jam.

🎉 Celebrating 5 Years with Nadja! 🎉 This month, we're celebrating Nadja Kowollik, our incredible Account Manager, who has been part of the mula family for 5 amazing years! 🚀 Throughout her journey, she’s helped countless clients and made a huge impact on our team. We sat down with her and had a chat about all the great times we had together. Here's a sneak peek of her interview: 💬 Reflecting on five years at mula, what has been your most memorable moment? “There have been many, but one that stands out is seeing a client of our client, receiving a package I helped create. It was so impactful to witness the end result of our work in person. Moments like that, or spotting N26 boxes on the U-Bahn, remind me of the reach and impact of what we do.” 💬 What’s a fun fact about you that your clients or colleagues might not know? “After university, I was told I wasn’t suited for sales. That pushed me to pursue sales roles even harder, and now, here I am. It’s something I’m proud of!” You can get more content like this one subscribing to our newsletter.

We asked Carlee Finlay what OWN IT meant to her. Here's what she has to say: "OWN IT is a mindset that drives both individual and team growth. It's about consistently bringing your A-game, and contributing your unique strengths. When you combine those two things, it can create a lot of forward momentum for both you and your team.   When we 'own it', we bring our best skills and knowledge to the table, pushing ourselves to learn and grow. We work together, harnessing a collaborative environment and our individual strengths to achieve shared goals and propel our team forward." #ThisIsBestseller #ownit #BESTSELLERCANADA #VeroModa #Sales

It’s Women in Sales Month, and I couldn’t be more excited to kick off the celebration by spotlighting Sarah Reiff! 🌟 She joined Trustpilot three years ago as an ADR and has since skyrocketed into an amazing Account Executive! 🌟 Check out this Built In article that Sarah was featured in, where she shares her experience of working in a team that’s all about collaboration and support: "Even when we’re remote, my team is in constant communication, and we’re always learning from each other. We’re huge supporters of one another, and we’re constantly coming up with new outreach strategies and sharing best practices." Sarah also talked about how Trustpilot’s sales team is different from others she’s worked for: "I get to work across a wide range of industries and verticals every day, which keeps me engaged and constantly learning. This broader focus allows me to prospect in areas that really spark my interest, and that’s something I haven’t seen in other teams." And let’s not forget Sarah’s favorite office tradition: ringing the gong and boxing bell when a deal closes! 🔔🥳 "The energy on the sales floor is amazing, especially on closing days. We celebrate our wins with team socials and always take time to reset and connect before the next month kicks off." Sarah's journey is a testament to hard work, collaboration, and a team that’s dedicated to lifting each other up. Want to know more about her story and why she loves working at Trustpilot?

Talk about an onboarding experience from the team at Sandler Custom Growth Solutions! It doesn't take much to make any stage of the customer encounter and journey an experience. Mike Crandall and his team continue to amaze me. They get it!

Picture this You're building your dream business, envisioning a team of absolute rockstars who not only get the job done but also vibe with your company's ethos like nobody's business. Sounds like paradise, right? Yet, one of the toughest challenges is bringing that vision to life, crafting the right systems and cultivating a company culture that attracts top-tier talent. Just last month, I crossed paths with a client facing the same dilemma A team of 8 sales reps, they were hitting a wall. The energy on the sales floor just wasn't clicking, leaving them feeling stuck and disconnected from their goals. #companyculture #business #salesteams
