In this episode, Armand Farrokh breaks down exactly how to run a discovery call for any product, even one you’ve never sold before. Using a background check software as an example, he shows how to identify real business problems, craft targeted questions, and connect day-to-day pains to executive-level impact that drives urgency.
You’ll learn how to build and navigate a Discovery Tree—a structured path from situation to operational problem to executive impact, using Armand’s proven framework. He also shares “typically” and “magic moment” questions that uncover high-value pain points, helping SDRs, AEs, and sales leaders turn every discovery call into a winning deal.

Leadership Masterclass: The Sales Management Operating System
🚨 SAVE $100 ONLY IF YOU JOIN THE COURSE BEFORE 10/17: https://bit.ly/4o8KtMT
Sales managers: No one ever teaches you how to do your job.
If you've ever wondered...
Why are my pipeline reviews useless?
Should I actually hire this person or am I gonna have to fire them in three months?
Guess what?
You're probably a little bit like me and you had to figure out this stuff from scratch.
Well, fortunately, I've partnered up with the best sales leader in the game today, Mark Kosoglow.
He led Outreach from $0-250M ARR and has turned 8 managers into VPs of Sales.
All through his sales management operating system.
It is the gold standard for how to be a sales leader in three steps:
1. The Operating System: Everything from how you forecast, to how you drive a deal through your pipeline, to how your AE should prospect.
2. The Operating Rhythm: How do you make sure your reps are actually doing the system through deal reviews? Team meetings and one-on-ones.
3. The Talent System: How do you hire people who are so good that they literally make you look like you don't have to do anything for your job?
That is what we cover in the Sales Management Operating System course.
I guarantee it will be the best sales management resource you've ever used in your life.

Sales hiring is broken—and here's how to fix it. If you've ever felt like your pipeline reviews are useless or your forecast is just a wild guess, you're not alone. Most sales managers are never taught how to actually hire great reps—until now. In this game-changing video, we break down a bulletproof 4-step hiring system used by Mark Kosoglow, former VP of Sales at Outreach, who scaled it from $0 to $250M+ ARR and developed 8 sales managers into full-fledged VPs.
