About My Sales Day

Sales is hard...brutally hard.

And it's messy.

My Sales Day is a podcast BY Sellers, FOR Sellers.

I’m Michael Hess, Founder and Chief Seller Advocate of “My Sales Day”, and it's my job to make “the sales life” "less messy" for you...and of course, to help you excel and perform at your peak abilities.

My goal is to make your time here educational, inspirational, and actionable. And yeah, entertaining too…sales doesn’t have to be boring! Selling is fun too, so let’s have some of that here as well.

You'll get skill ideas, action items, and hugs.

Yes, hugs.

You need support and you don't often get it from inside your org, and you certainly don't get it from the street.

The goal of this show is that you walk away with ideas, confidence, and a whole lot of skip in your step.

And if you need more of this positivity in your sales day, be sure to read the MySalesDay email which you can get by subscribing at mysalesday.io.
