Josh is not only a sales leader but also the author of the Amazon bestseller Outbound Sales, which shares the exact strategies, templates, and frameworks that helped Apollo.io achieve unicorn status and $100M ARR. With over 2.5K purchases in its first month, Josh’s book has become a must-read in the B2B sales community.
