  • E3: Why Good Salespeople Ask Better Questions with John Tunstall
    2025/05/18
    Sales. Love it or hate it, you can’t grow your business without it. In this episode of Creating The Curve, Anna is joined by John Tunstall - a sales strategist who’s on a mission to fix how small businesses approach selling. If you’re a founder who dreads “doing sales,” this episode will change the way you think about it.

So why do we do that in sales? In this episode, you’ll learn: Why good sales starts with great questions How to spot (and stop) bad sales habits How to approach selling without feeling pushy What “diagnosing” your customer really means Why founders with technical backgrounds can be amazing at sales — once they shift their mindset Whether you’re allergic to the word “sales” or just want to get better at it, this episode is packed with practical advice for selling with curiosity, confidence, and care.
