• Aaron is married with 9 children, lives in Los Angeles, and graduated from Stanford.
Key Takeaways:
• With the rise of inbound sales, remember that outbound should still be a part of your strategy to find new customers.
• If you're a growth company, your long term solution is to have your internal team prospecting.
