A VP of Sales reveals his non negotiable rules
Jeff was one of my earliest mentors and the first leader who believed in me enough to make me a manager at 18. He did not just teach me how to sell. He taught me the rules you do not break if you want to last in this business.
We get into the mindset that separates amateurs from pros, how to lead a team that actually hits its number, and the moment that changed my career.
02 What this is
Three things, done properly.
This show is for closers, builders and risk takers. If you want comfortable, there are other podcasts.
Sales that convert
What actually moves a deal forward. Scripts, objections, pipeline, follow up. The unglamorous work that pays.
Marketing that cuts through
Paid media, offers and positioning that produce revenue instead of impressions. Real numbers from real accounts.
Business moves that pay
How people actually built the thing. The decisions, the near misses and the stuff nobody puts in the case study.

Jimbo Slice
I started in sales at 18 and got promoted to manager before I could legally buy a drink. Since then I have made more than 80,000 cold calls, trained over 200 reps and advised on north of $50 million in ad spend across 2,000 brands.
I run Slice of the Pie Marketing, a performance agency out of Keizer, Oregon, and ScaleWithStaos, where I teach agency owners and reps how to sell. I have worked with Fortune 500s, Inc 5000 companies and startups that had nothing but a logo.
This podcast exists because most business advice is written by people who have never carried a quota. I wanted a place where the conversation is honest.
