CEO for CRM
CRM success doesn’t start with software. It starts with leadership. If you don’t design the right processes and assign the right ownership, adoption will stall, and so will your ROI. This book introduces the role of the CEO for CRM: a dedicated leader who ensures CRM becomes a tool your team actually uses and benefits from. Whether you’re just starting or rescuing a rollout, let this book be your roadmap.
In this book, we’re going to talk about the importance of the role of CEO for CRM and who is ideal for the role. We’re also going to go through the CRM journey — the process the CEO for CRM should oversee. Your homework will be to answer the questions posed at the end of each chapter and take notes on how you will apply the advice.

“Brian is a dynamic presenter who really knows what he is talking about. If you are a distributor, representative or manufacturer in the industrial equipment sector, you will benefit greatly from Brian’s insights on sales management and customer information systems optimization.”
– Joe Incontri, Krohne Inc.
“Brian has always been a passionate yet practical evangelist for sales process and focusing on the front end of the sales cycle. What he teaches and coaches is so relevant to any industrial manufacturer, distributor or rep firm. What I really love about Brian is he knows that the behavior and discipline of the sales team is what is important – technology such as CRM merely enhances good fundamentals. He also knows how to get salespeople to adopt new methods – because he’s been there himself. Brian is refreshing because he is so real – his methods are based on what he has proven to be workable and feasible – not a lot of theory and concepts. And he really knows how to pursue large, complex sales opportunities. Brian’s enthusiasm and deep experience allow him to motivate salespeople because he understands the real challenges of changing their behavior and adopting new habits. Brian’s ideas work because they help the salesperson, which of course helps the sales management.”
– Reed Stith, industrial growth expert and former manufacturing executive
“I’ve been hoping that Brian would put his vast experience as sales process guru in a book form ever since he and I cofounded Selltis. That dream has come true and the world is richer for it. First through Selltis, then through SalesProcess360, sales professionals have benefited from Brian’s wisdom for almost two decades. Now they have a volume that speaks of his passion and belief in applying technology and sound sales practices to improving their sales processes. Thank you, Brian!”
– Mario Igrec, co-founder, Selltis
“I first met Brian Gardner while I was working for his father at Breard-Gardner Inc. Brian, Michael Johnson and I were all promoted to vice-president positions. In our new roles, we all contributed to sales management, and Brian took a particular interest in understanding the sales process and how it could be improved. We all knew that tracking opportunities early generated better results, but Brian wanted to develop a process by which we could measure these results. What started as a handwritten form documenting sales opportunities soon migrated into a spreadsheet, and from there, what eventually became Selltis. At first we were just tracking opportunities, but Brian wanted to track the entire sales process and has now made a successful career of teaching others how to do the same.”
– Danny Wedge, John H. Carter Company
