sudotechieGreat guests, but I struggle with the hostI haven’t found a podcast with such high caliber, accomplished guests within the tech industry. I’ve been listening since the early days and still listen; however, I’ve always hoped Joubin would develop more as an interviewer. He clearly does his research and has now had such intimate access to so many successful individuals, but he regularly interjects with personal stories, opinions, and commentary that takes away from the focus, the guest. The delta between his professional experience and these guests is more than significant, and it comes out when guests seem to regularly redirect back to a relevant topic. I’ve also noticed that he seems to often miss great opportunities to go deeper into a guest response by asking a second order question, yet he jumps to the next, unrelated question. All in all, I’m always impressed with the guests, but I wish the interviewer would work harder to take the back seat more often.

McGeezer3328Useful contentInterviewer has annoying habit of asking 3-4 questions in a row, which detracts from interviewees’ answers
-
Master A. ChuGreat discussions.Only call out is that it’s very much white men skewed….
-
SB,CA Working Bus/Econ StudentIf you like biography of entrepreneurs you’ll like gritOne of the best podcasts in my library (top 3) he does a great job of interviewing business leaders. I like it because it’s mainly CRO and CEO. But mostly because I love biographies of entrepreneurs and hearing their stories and struggles of how the built companies. This is similar and a great insight into how top execs think and live
-
AllieNF1010Interesting podcast with great business adviceFantastic discussions, great questions. Very interesting to hear stories from leaders who built some of the biggest companies worldwide

CalhuniSuch a great podcastJoubin and Kleiner Perkins, you all have done an incredible job with this podcast. I am a serial podcaster and have enjoyed so many episodes from your show.

Thank YOU and to all the guests for their candidness and honesty.

JPos3Amazing InsightsThere is no better place to go for amazing sales and scaling insights but also business concepts and advice on the whole. Joubin asks great questions and also definitely has a voice for podcasts (unclear if he has a face for podcasts as well). Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to accelerate their career.

BilbaoBelleSharing is caring!Loving your content mix! Especially the Asana session regarding product-led growth and another high-five for the career progression and leadership growth session from Okta’s CRO. Will continue following.
-
mm1621Run!Loved the podcast with Scott Incorta on running a company and everything in between, I just finished reading Peak Performance and there are some clear parallels between the demands such responsibilities hold... as well as parallels between the subsequent opportunities. Great info on managing it all!
-

MattBrady30Great show!I started following GTM Grit about 4 months ago and it is absolutely worth the time to listen in. I feel more confident and excited about my professional journey every time I listen and always learn something new. Highly recommended

Dale194444444444410/10 content for everyone in sales & marketing10/10 content for everyone in sales & marketing, regardless of your industry or company size. Joubin is a curious-minded host and leader with the ability to uncover actionable insights through engaging conversation. Bonus points for diversity of thought, background, gender, and more from the guests Joubin has on the show.
-
Zia ZaidGreat contentLove the Podcast…. Keep them coming.
-
becausevideogames fanGreat podcastVery insightful!
-
Ro-Ro2Ignore At Your Own PerilThis podcast has a good mix of leaders and lessons from early stage companies to house-hold tech brands. Other podcasts tend to recruit the helmet (big brand), not the talent. I am more intrigued by talent that has succeeded in spite of not having a big brand behind them and this show has more of that. Joubin recently asked a leader about the in-between unsuccessful stops and why they were unsuccessful and short. I loved that because that is real and will help people identify similar situations and how to better navigate. Not every career move is a home-run.
-
siddharth.sReal stories with real lessonsI was in an end of quarter slump and running an early stage sales team. This has been eye opening and genuinely provides encouragement :)
-
Nick VatelWell Worth Your TimeOutstanding podcast! The content is highly relevant and applicable, and the guests are fantastic and well-experienced. Joubin does a great job moving past the fluff quickly and getting to the heart of what makes a sales leader and a GTM organization highly successful. This is a must-listen for any technology operator or investor, whether directly involved in day to day GTM or not.
-
Steve_CarellExcellent Go-to-Market InsightsA must listen for CEOs, investors, and anyone in sales & marketing.
-
BobbySurf93117Love the showReally interesting hearing from these amazing sales leaders. Great interviews!
-
pv23yesHighly Recommend!!I started listening to this podcast a few months ago and found it to be very insightful (it made my list of recurring podcasts). I think Joubin does a great job of humanizing the topics and digging into relatable content. I’ve typically jotted down 1-2 takeaways an episode and try to make sure I’m applying some of the best practices of other sales leaders to my own professional / personal life. Very unique / strong lineup of executives to learn from. Highly recommend
-
matsteane7Best Go To Market podcastOne of the most insightful podcasts I’ve come across. The podcast gives access and perspective to some of the most incredible high ranking CROs leaders. This podcast has been one of the most valuable and empowering resources in learning how to build and scale a successful go-to-market strategy.
-
B_NGOMust listen for any sales leader!Incredible insights from some of the top sales leaders! A must for any sales leader looking to get the most out of their sales organization.

PedvidUnprecedented access to GTM legends!This is by far the best GTM leadership podcasts I’ve found to date. Great interviews and amazing minds. I start my morning 5am routine with a workout, meditation, followed by Go To Market Grit! Well done sir!
-
MC975076Phenomenal interviewsThis is one of the best shows I’ve listened to. Joubin does an excellent job of relating to guests and diving into some of the non-obvious parts of their professional journey. I’ve learned a lot from these episodes. Thanks for the great interviews!
-
arlingtonvirginiaLearned a lot in 1 hr!Really enjoyed the episode with Dan Shapero from LinkedIn! The host sets a relaxed tone from the beginning, and the hour flew by with an honest and enlightening back and forth. Great for a drive or background work noise. Will keep listening to this podcast...can’t wait to see who they get next!
-
zem_the_mattressInsightful and Real!Really 'double clicks' on some thorny issues getting your startup on the map. You encounter these Sales Leaders on the other side of the table, this is great insight into what makes them tick.
-
TechDan12Super helpful adviceLove the GTM focus of this podcast! There is a lot of startup advice out there on all kinds of topics but it’s great to see a podcast from a well-respected source on a lesser-talked about area. This will help so many founders. Highly recommend a listen!
