"Our business development lead was stressing out last month because she was only 88% to quota with just two days left in the month. I sat with her after work, and we brainstormed some great ideas she could implement for quick results. She ended up closing the month at right on quota and had some amazing momentum heading into the next month. I believe that encouragement can come in many forms. In this instance, she just needed someone to bounce ideas off of!"
