They get into trust in the age of AI, the danger of transactional thinking, the difference between looking busy and building value, and what it really means to create long term relationships instead of chasing short term wins.⚡ They get into:– Why most sales and marketing advice sounds good but does not convert– The real difference between curiosity and urgency– Why decision makers ignore most outreach– How AI and over polished messaging are eroding trust– Gold stars vs gold bars, activity vs outcomes– What executives actually respond to when making decisions📚 About the GuestAngelique Rewers is the founder and CEO of BoldHaus, an Inc. 5000–recognized firm that helps expert-led and boutique service businesses win and retain corporate clients.
