    Your Rewards:  

    - Showcase your professional insights to a wider audience, increasing your chances of being discovered by potential employers or partners, and boosting your influence in the presales field;

    - Learn face-to-face with other guests and spark new ideas through intellectual exchange;

    - PresalesChina Community MVP certificate.




Show Format:

- Closed-Door Recording: Initially recorded via online video conference, not live-streamed, for a relaxed and pressure-free experience. After editing, episodes will be published on our own media channels.

- Topic Source: Topics are initially selected from our course, "Learning Presales Through Stories: A Collection of Presales Case Analyses" (see the detailed introduction here). This course is based on my personal experiences throughout my presales career. Its goal is to give you a broader understanding of the various scenarios you might encounter in presales work and to enhance your ability to handle similar situations in the future. Each story is followed by open-ended discussion questions, but there are no answers—because no fixed or reference answers exist. Originally, I planned to invite several different presales professionals to share their views and suggestions, but that was shelved due to time and budget constraints. Now, we're ready to launch it.


Show Highlights:

- Diverse Guests: Each episode pairs a newcomer (with at least 1 year of dedicated presales experience) with a veteran (10+ years of experience). No restrictions on industry or specialty. We especially welcome female presales professionals, presales managers, and salespeople to join;

- Real Insights: Share practical, proven methods and techniques from real presales work, and offer your perspectives on the case stories;

- Deep Dive into the Unspoken: We don't shy away from the real gray areas of the job—lessons from failures, and the traps and pitfalls to watch out for;

- Authentic Expression: Be real, be genuine, and speak from the heart.
