Marcus Schaller is a Fractional B2B Strategist with 20+ years studying why some people thrive at selling while others white-knuckle their way through every conversation.

In this episode of Marketing by Design, Marcus breaks down why selling is really just problem-solving, why trust outweighs every other tactic in services, and why most founders and marketers sabotage their pipeline by spending time in the wrong rooms.

If you've ever felt weird about selling, this one will reframe everything.
