I remember a time, not so long ago, when my sales life in the USA felt like a frantic scramble. Picture this: a desk buried under sticky notes, spreadsheets so complex they’d make an accountant weep, and a mental Rolodex bursting at the seams with names, numbers, and vague promises. Every morning was a guessing […]
For decades now, I’ve had a front-row seat to the evolving dance between businesses and their customers, particularly here in the bustling, competitive landscape of the United States. My journey has taken me from dusty old filing cabinets to the intricate digital networks that power today’s giant companies. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned,

It’s a story about growth, about connection, and sometimes, about the sheer chaos that can erupt when you’re trying to manage hundreds of thousands, even millions, of customer interactions across a sprawling organization.

There was an exhilarating buzz, a constant hum of activity, but beneath the surface, a lot of things were held together by sheer willpower
I remember a time, not so long ago, when our venture capital firm operated on a chaotic symphony of spreadsheets, scattered notes, and an almost mythical collective memory. Our team, a passionate group of investors with a keen eye for groundbreaking startups, was drowning in potential. We had a formidable deal flow, a network that
I remember a time, not so long ago, when our private equity firm ran on a chaotic symphony of spreadsheets, overflowing email inboxes, and a memory that, frankly, was more aspirational than reliable. We were good at what we did – finding promising companies, nurturing them, and helping them grow – but the mechanics of
