Yes, Gamma is a unicorn.
Yes, they’ve been in the news for all the right reasons.
But this episode of the "Sales Uncharted" podcast and newsletter wasn’t about headlines.

I wanted to explore something less visible and very instructive.

A conversation with Amanda Rothbard (Community Manager Gamma) unpacked an "uncharted" truth:

Sales and community are two sides of the same coin.
One drives momentum.
The other builds belief.

What we explored:
• Why community creates trust before sales shows up
• How CX surfaces signal revenue teams never see
• The difference between decorative communities and real ones
• Why AI makes human connection more valuable, not less
• How Gamma turns feedback into forward motion

Two lines that define this episode:
“Sales earns attention. Community earns belief.”
“AI scales answers. Community scales confidence.”

This is the Gamma story you don’t see in press releases.

Your career doesn’t need a restart. It needs a rise.

I’m looking forward to joining Nilesh Kataria on Wednesday, Nov 26, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM CST for a live session on RISEUP: Your Career Reclaimed. 

If you’ve been feeling stuck, under-recognized, or sensing that you’re capable of more but unsure where to begin, this conversation is for you.

We’ll unpack the real patterns that silently stall careers: overcommitment, hidden self-doubt, unclear direction, and the quiet exhaustion ambitious professionals carry. More importantly, we’ll talk about how to rise differently--- with clarity, grounded confidence, and strategies you can use the same day.

One of my favorite early reviews came from Isaac Asendele, Founder & CEO of Lexasens, who said: “If I could go back in time, this would be the career guide I would read. It would have saved me many sleepless nights.” That’s precisely the kind of shift we hope this conversation gives you.

Join us live. Bring a notebook. Bring your questions. Bring the part of you that’s ready for your next chapter.

Most sales teams are obsessed with the wrong 5 percent.
 The scripts. The KPIs. The dashboards.

But in my conversation with Dr. Javier A. Carlin this afternoon for the next episode of the "Sales Uncharted" podcast, which comes out next week, something became painfully apparent.

The real game is happening where most sellers never look.
 Inside the 95 percent, which alludes to the subconscious patterns that quietly shape our identity, emotional state, and behaviors long before we ever enter a sales conversation.

And as we enter Thanksgiving week, many B2B sellers will pause, reflect on family, and quietly calculate where they stand as the calendar year draws to a close.

That pause is powerful.
 Because it exposes truths we don’t usually say out loud.

In our discussion, Javier and I dug into three truths that every seller and every sales leader needs to hear:
  1. Your identity always shows up before your pitch does
  2. Your emotional state explains your inconsistency better than any metric
  3. And your “performance problem” is often just an unresolved internal belief you never knew was running the show.

It’s basic
 Yet barely understood across the entire B2B landscape.

This upcoming episode (and this teaser warms you up for it) shows what happens when you stop “fixing” your tactics and start understanding the machinery that drives them.

Sales Uncharted is where we ditch traditional sales playbooks, scripts, and dive deep into ideas that help you sell!

🚨 I spent 18 months trying to “win” LinkedIn.
What I learned is why most people never will.

I tried to understand LinkedIn the way people tell you to.
- Publish consistently.
- Stay visible.
- Keep feeding the algorithm.

Posts are inherently TL;DR. Even when the ideas matter, and that matters more than we admit.

The LinkedIn feed is optimized for speed, not depth.
- For reaction, not retrieval.
- For scrolling, not thinking.

If someone wants to find an idea later, revisit it, respond thoughtfully, or build on it then feeds are terrible at that. The save feature won't save you!

My hot take: Newsletters and communities (not LinkedIn groups) are better designed for how people actually learn, reflect, and interact. Sustainably!
That’s not a creator problem. It’s a format problem.

Like any medium, LinkedIn runs on energy ⚡
And energy is finite.

Sustaining visibility in the feed also takes a tremendous amount of effort. The people who do it successfully over long periods almost always rely on automation, AI, teams, or backing resources 🤖

That’s not a criticism. It’s reality.

As LinkedIn grows, the algorithm will do more of that work for you.

It took me 18 months to accept this: about 90% of my thinking here was being mediated by an algorithm that was increasingly deciding who saw what, when, and why, on my behalf.

So, I’m changing how I use LinkedIn.

I’ll still be here. I’ll still share. But I’m no longer treating the feed as the primary place for ideas meant to last.

My energy is now focused on two things:
• A dedicated Sales Community for practitioners who want depth, dialogue, and durable thinking 🤝
• RISEUP Career Studio, a forum backing a do-good initiative for early- and mid-career professionals, that is focused not on career guidance, but on career progression 🚀

I’d rather build places designed for retrieval, context, and conversation than fight a feed designed to keep us scrolling.

If you want to stay aligned with where my thinking is going, and have a clean pathway into those spaces, then subscribe to the following two newsletters. That’s where the signal lives now 📡

Most new B2B sellers do not fail because of product gaps, pricing, or competitors.

They fail because they are taught to sell in a way that does not actually help buyers buy.

Buyers do not need more demos.

They do not need more decks.

They do not need more “just checking in” emails.

They need help navigating their own internal chaos. Misaligned teams. Unclear priorities. Nervous executives. Confusing internal processes. No guidance on how to build a compelling case for change.

So I built a carousel with 20 tactical ideas I wish every new seller learned on day one.

No theory.

No fluffy inspiration.

Only clear actions and clear reasons those actions work.

If you are early in your sales career or leading someone, this is the playbook I wish had existed when I started.

Here is the truth.

Top sellers do not close better.

Top sellers guide better.

Top sellers make buying feel easier.

Top sellers help buyers win internal battles.

If you want to grow faster in B2B sales, this carousel is your shortcut.

👇 Dive into the 20 tactical ideas in the slides below.

20 Ideas Every New B2B Seller Wish They Knew Upfront

🚨 The number of “Open to Work” posts I’m seeing is not normal
In the past week alone, I have seen fifteen.
 I have reshared five.

Account Executives. Sales Managers. Sales Leaders.
 Talented people. Now between chapters.

Maybe my feed is off.
 Or maybe something real has shifted.
 AI disruption. Tariffs. End-of-year blues.
 Whatever it is, it feels heavier than usual.

Each “open to work” post hits hard because I have been there. Twice.
 No need to read between lines.
 Each post carries a real story.
 I see shame, fear, nervousness, hope, and requests for access, advice, and connection.

A LinkedIn image consultant told me to stop resharing job-seeker posts because it “messes up your LinkedIn wall.”
 My answer was simple. I do not care.

When someone is struggling, your brand can wait.
 Helping another human being comes first.

Fifteen months ago, after coaching a few clients through job loss and career transition, I began to see a pattern.
 People needed structure, not slogans.

So I created one.
It became the REBUILD Framework. A practical guide to rise again with clarity and calm.

R stands for Reflect. Learn from what happened. Take the lesson, not the guilt.

E stands for Evaluate. Redefine what truly matters before chasing what is next.

B stands for Build. Find your people. Community is oxygen during transition.

U stands for Update. Refresh your story and show the market who you are becoming.

I stands for Invest. Use this time to strengthen skills that shape your future.

L stands for Launch. Treat your search as a focused campaign, not a reaction.

D stands for Develop. Resilience is the final piece. The comeback is built one day at a time.

If you are in transition, please remember this.
 You are not starting over.
 You are starting from experience.

I am sharing the REBUILD Playbook again with this post and offering my time to anyone who wants feedback on their resume, LinkedIn profile, or interview approach. No strings attached.

No hesitation. No judgment.
 Just a thoughtful conversation with someone who can help you distill, focus, and rebuild.

Besides my "Sales Uncharted Newsletter," I am also launching a free community on Circle for B2B sales professionals who want support, structure, and momentum.

If you would like to join as a founding member, comment JOIN below, and I will add you personally.

We rise faster when we rebuild together.
 Let’s do that.
