Welcome to a truly special episode of Market Dominance Guys. Today, Chris Beall flies solo while co-host Corey Frank is busy scaling his powerhouse conversationalist team at Branch 49 down in Phoenix – where business is as hot as the July desert sun.
In this unique episode, Chris gives us an exclusive preview of his upcoming book "First to Converse: Dominate Markets with the Human Voice," set to release in fall 2025. This isn't just another sales book – it's a comprehensive cookbook for market dominance, designed for everyone from CEOs and founders to individual sales contributors who understand that whoever is first to converse is first to win.
Chris takes us through the book's introduction, sharing the uncomfortable truth that while everyone thinks buyers want to control the sales process, the reality is that the first company to engage a prospect in meaningful conversation shapes their entire buying journey. Drawing from over 14 years of experience leading ConnectAndSell, Chris reveals why cold calling remains the strongest foundation for B2B success – and why waiting for inbound leads is a losing strategy.
This episode serves as both a dry run for the audiobook version and a masterclass in why targeted conversations at pace and scale dominate markets. So buckle up as Chris challenges everything you think you know about modern B2B sales.
