Accurate sales forecasting is a consistent struggle for many organizations. In this episode, Bill and Bryan dive deep into the root causes behind this prevalent issue.

They explore how leadership's pressure for inflated pipelines can lead to inaccurate forecasts, as well as the inherent unpredictability of human nature that impacts both buyers and sellers.

The guys discuss the importance of extreme objectivity in the sales process, addressing lagging closed dates and the need for a true partnership mindset between buyers and sellers.
