They discussed the challenges and opportunities in the world of sales, the role of technology and automation, and the importance of maintaining a balance between these tools and the human touch. Key Points of the Discussion The Power of Sales Coaching Candice emphasized the value of sales coaching for reps, stating, "Sales coaching is really meant to challenge you, encourage you, and help you with your sales process."

Utilizing CRM Data for Sales Improvement They talked about the benefits of using a CRM like Pipedrive for sales managers and business owners. Candice explained, "Having a CRM to be able to show you in either data form or visual form or whatever form it is that's the one great benefit about having a CRM." Balancing Automation and the Human Touch Candice highlighted the importance of not over-automating sales processes, saying, "I don't think that just because you can automate it doesn't mean you should automate it."
