On today's episode of Open Source Selling, Jason and I continue our conversation and discuss 'how to effectively work with and sell to the CIO'. Jason shares what he does to prepare to make initial contact and how he secures a first meeting. This includes his research on the CIO's initiative's, connecting with the CIO's extended team to gather specific information, build relationships and support, as well as over-coming objectives from the 'blockers' in an account who don't initially support you. He also discusses what generally has to happen during a first meeting to secure a follow up because too often an account executive only gets one opportunity to meet with and make an impression on the CIO.
