End of My First Month at Glenside Commercials! Well, time flies when you're having fun! 🌟 Having spent years at a Ford main dealer and then a stint at a large commercial vehicle broker, stepping back into the dealership environment felt a bit like déjà vu. The motor trade is a whirlwind, changing faster than a teenager’s mood swings, but I’ve embraced the chaos! Diving headfirst into the world of IVECO and Fiat Professional products was a wild ride. Within days, I made my first sale—talk about starting off with a bang! 🎉 And just a week in, I delivered a sale to a customer who was down two tippers and needed a miracle. Spoiler alert: I delivered. 🚛✨ Reconnecting with old customers and sparking new relationships has been a blast. LinkedIn has been my trusty sidekick, helping me meet fantastic folks from various industries and show off the incredible range we offer. When I moved from a main dealer to a broker, I was warned it wouldn’t be my cup of tea and I wouldn't deal with the work environment. But let me tell you, I loved every minute! The friendships I made and the distance sales skills I learned were invaluable. The motor industry is evolving—phone and online sales are booming like never before! So, when Glenside Commercials/Carrier Transicold Southern/Iveco/Fiat Professional offered me a chance to sell commercial vehicle that are being highly developed and are growing in market share with a mix of face-to-face and distance selling, I jumped at it. And guess what? It’s been a perfect fit. Here’s to more sales, more connections, and more fun! 🚀

I have to give it up to Nathanael Greklek and the team at Mohawk Auto Group. Dealers, take notes. Their hard work and dedication is paying off with international praise and an invested audience. I can’t help but watch and smile when I encounter their TikToks and reels. 🤠👀 Sure, viral doesn’t necessary equate to more local vehicles sold. But it can equate to more nationally-delivered vehicles sold. It can improve brand recognition. It can improve brand affinity. It can improve loyalty. Heck, I have a feeling this is also helping improve employee retention (which always equates to improved sales and CSX). Well done, gang!

Preparing for the future is a pillar of our organization. The training evolution has begun!

Meet Gunnebo Group Board Members   We asked our board members what fills them with pride as part of the Gunnebo Group and what values they consider essential for our success today and in the years to come. This is what Jens Browaldh, Member of the Board since 2020 and Partner at Altor, said: “I would like to highlight three key points: 1. Working as a team. As a global niche company, fostering a culture of teamwork is crucial for Gunnebo’s success. By promoting cross-functional collaboration and open communication, employees can harness diverse skills and insights, leading to innovative solutions and improved project outcomes.    2. Exceeding customer demands. Given our diverse product range and customer base, it is vital to meet or exceed customer expectations. A culture focused on listening to and understanding our customers will enable Gunnebo to tailor products and services more effectively, enhancing customer satisfaction. This approach will also bolster our innovation and product development efforts, ensuring we deliver solutions that meet customer needs.    3. Growth mindset and performance. Maintaining high ambitions in everything we do is essential. To reach our full potential, we must deliver stronger performance than ever before in Gunnebo’s history. Encouraging a growth mindset among employees through training and development will equip our staff with the latest skills and knowledge, allowing us to innovate and adapt to market changes. I’m honoured to be a part of Gunnebo’s exciting journey towards becoming a leading global provider of a safer future. We have made significant progress over the past three years and built a strong foundation. What excites me is that we have only just begun; there is so much more potential in Gunnebo! I am also proud when I get to meet our dedicated employees, whose commitment gives me confidence in Gunnebo’s bright future.” #LifeAtGunnebo #Gunnebo #MemberofBoard

Here’s my top 3 ways to deal with the EOQ Scaries: 1. Physical activity in any form. Walk, lift, sports w/ your kids, etc. play loose. 2. Be “off” when you’re off. If you don’t ever give yourself time to recharge, it will wear on you. 3. Start building pipeline for next quarter like a madman. If you don’t like how this quarter went, give yourself the gift of more to work with next quarter. #sdr #sales #ae — My name is Brandon Jeppson, and I’ve spent 5460 hours documenting my journey in tech sales.

It's amazing what we can accomplish when we work together. The Sales Gravy Team (and a few +1's) came together to tackle each department’s challenges. If your team is facing challenges and you're having a hard time coming up with a solution that works, don't be afraid to reach out to members outside of your department. Sometimes it's easier for someone with an outside perspective to find the issue and tackle it, than it is for someone who is intertwined in it. If nothing else, it's an opportunity for others to understand and learn about your stressors, and a great team bonding activity! #SellMore #TeamBonding #WorkTogether #WorkSmarter #Collaboration #TeamWork #Challenges #TeamTrip

I've seen this post at @steveheroux1 and it really hit me that in sales, your reputation is everything. It's not just about hitting quotas; it's about selling with integrity. Early in my career, I learned that a quick deal isn't worth compromising your values. Missing a quota is temporary, but a tarnished reputation can haunt you forever. Each interaction is a chance to plant seeds of trust and partnership. Focus on building relationships that last, not just numbers. Protect your name—it's the most valuable asset you have in sales. #SalesIntegrity #LongGame
