Sales Engineering, Unfiltered Chapter 6: It’s Your Stage

Within five minutes of a screen share, customers can tell whether you’ve invested in your home office. Chapter 6 walks through the setup that holds up through demos, RFPs and back-to-back calls, and explains why in a remote-first world your camera, mic and lighting are part of your professional presence.

In this chapter:

  • A 34-inch ultrawide, a second screen for Slack and Teams, and a dock that makes it one cable instead of ten
  • Ergonomic gear, plus mouse macros and dictation that save hours every week
  • Why audio separates amateurs from pros, with a budget pick if you’re just starting
  • Retiring the “blurry potato” laptop webcam
  • Whiteboarding live on an iPad, and the discovery call taken from a laptop sitting on an empty Amazon box
  • How a Stream Deck turns your home office into a mini broadcast studio
  • A “go bag” so you can rebuild your setup at a customer site

Next week: Chapter 7, The Witness Stand Test.
