About the show

Philosophy, Selling, and... cat litter? Wait... cats? What on Earth does cat litter have in common with philosophy? Is it the 💩? Tell me it's the poop! Our host loves sales, philosophy, and (you're in luck!) he's a cat litter expert! When you consider the many things that impact sales like trust, empathy, obligation, motivation, influence, ethics, value, and emotion... well all those factors have deep philosophical roots. If you are a sales leader (or hope to become one), this podcast is for you. We discuss problems that are common to sales and sales management, and explore how philosophical concepts can be used to solve those problems.
