The roast
Yamini Rangan claims she helps millions of companies transform how they sell, yet she averages barely 800 engagements on a profile of 170,000 people. If your CRM software performed as poorly as your content, the board wouldn’t be calling it a transformation—they’d be calling it an intervention.
