Welcome back to Mastering Modern Selling!
In this kickoff episode, we bring back sales strategist Alice Heiman and Brandon Lee to talk about a strategy that’s been quietly transforming how sales conversations are started, the Roundtable Model.
If cold calling and email are yielding diminishing returns, this episode is your roadmap to creating high-quality, high-conversion opportunities through intentional, peer-driven conversations.
Brandon and Alice walk through how roundtables are being used to build reputation, deepen trust, and open doors that traditional outreach struggles to unlock.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
