Need help with a negotiation? Text us and we'll feature your question on the show.
In this episode, we sit down with Mark Anthony McCray—one of the top sales leaders in global logistics—to unpack what really drives sales negotiations. Mark’s core philosophy: remove friction. When you make it easy to do business with you—and help your buyer look good to their stakeholders—deals move. They discuss practical prep using a negotiation checklist, aligning cross-functional teams (pricing, legal, CS), and the underrated habit of simply asking for more. You’ll hear daily tactics (Google Alerts, clear call purposes) and mindset shifts (everyone can win; ego and reputation drive decisions) you can apply today—even if you don’t carry a sales title. If you want sharper conversations, faster cycles, and bigger outcomes, this one’s for you.
