Show does a good job at capturing apathy and complacency at work. I would create incentives to spur additional sales, set minimums, and centralize finance and HR functions.

Then I would create pathways for warehouse workers to be promoted to ‘desk’ jobs

Hello! What is the best way to structure a discovery call for SaaS sales? e.g. share a deck, only focus on their use case (current state, goals, pain, etc.), share a story, etc. Lastly, how do you go further than surface level, like if they mention they are having issues with xyz, which is usually a symptom of the problem and not the problem itself. Any info would be appreciated, thanks.

How do you hire for a role that fluctuates? I currently am the designer + support specialist @ my job. Sometimes support takes up all my time and design projects get pushed back.
