jerryskids 5,193 Posted July 2, 2018 non-profit now homie Cool, what do you do? I probably have seen it already and not paid attention so I apologize for asking. Also my company got acquired a while back; we used to have a weird 1/31 year end but now with our new mother ship we are transitioning to 9/30. 8 months of what we are calling "stub year." We closed out everything possible last year so our funnel is a bit of *crickets* as we have a long sales cycle. I'm working on the biggest opportunity by far, which is good and bad. Adding salt to the wound is that my boss lost a power struggle recently and now reports to a former peer from our field tech side. This guy is one of those "what do we need to do to close this?" people who acts like he understands sales but really doesn't. If you've ever done complex, enterprise-level sales you know that this is a weak question and the answer is "well, we need to do a whole lotta stuff." Sigh...
