Hey fellow savages. EMC is a tech company, now part of Dell Technologies. It was the largest tech merger in History. Small stuff, only made the local papers.

Not just a data storage vet here but also came through the Associate program. Currently in Ent. Tier 1. Welcome to the club.

Topics
-It's EOY, people have budgets to burn. After you get the permission to have a conversation ask them what their christmas shopping list is.

-Cyber Attacks and Resiliency is on the rise, hundreds of percents. Hit that.

-Golden Question: "What's not working? If you had a Magic Wand, what would you fix?"

Lastly, if you want some networking or continued advice feel free to reach out. Shoot me a DM and I'll help where I can.

Difficult with a recession, it is best to move on to projects with a lot of suggestion or a very high rotation of projects or merchandise. (which in resale is almost impossible unless you are coca-cola haha)

Do you mind expanding on what you mean by โ€œsuggestion projectsโ€?
