Technical Resource Utilization

One of the most underutilized assets technology and services companies have are their technical resources.  Yes, they are generally swamped and stretched very thin but have a unique intrinsic value; because they don't carry the same perceptions that many salespeople do, the technical resources are generally viewed by your customers as an "honest broker." When your customer is more comfortable with the team as a whole, they are more likely to buy from you.

With the right knowledge, communication skills, and understanding of the sales process, many technical resources can help your customers feel more comfortable with your company and the decisions they make buying your products.

James, 27, Systems Administrator

What is the biggest frustration you’re facing now?

Things being up in the air. Nothing being nailed down in life. Not really having a clear direction of where to go or what to pursue next. I’m kind of frustrated with that.

2. What trait do you wish you most had?

I wish I was more naturally generous. It doesn’t come naturally to me to give money, especially tithing has always been a problem for me. I tend to cling to “This is my stuff. I’ve earned it.” I don’t hate giving gifts or anything like that. I’ve known people who are naturally generous, giving people. Not just of their money, but of their time or effort. There’s a certain light that comes from being a magnanimous person. Even just random people they meet, they’re constantly willing to give up their time or effort just to help people. That’s what I would like to have more of.

3. What are 3 characteristics you look for in a friend?

A sense of humor to start with is very common. I don’t necessarily look for it in someone. Friendship is a much more natural thing that deliberately pursuing specific things in people. I tend to get along better with people who share my sense of humor or at least understand my sarcasm. If they don’t then they just tend not to like me. Other than that, I don’t know…not scumbags? Also usually some kind of shared activity or shared passion for something. The people that become closer friends are the people you spend more time with. Then probably the ability to think deeply on things or have deeper discussions. If you don’t ever get passed the shallow, superfluous then you don’t actually get to know the person. Can you really say your friends with someone if you only know what their favorite baseball team is? So a mutual willingness to engage in conversation and a commonality in that conversation.

4. What makes you feel brave?

Probably having someone else around to be brave for. Even for myself, when I’m living alone there’s less of a need for that bravery. Even killing bugs. I don’t like killing bugs by myself, but if there’s people around to kill bugs for then you have to be brave. You have to go in and just kill the spider. So yeah, having someone else around to be brave for.

5. What makes you feel vulnerable?

Any kind of deeper relationship or any kind of deep personal discussion like that. In order to have any kind of conversation that matters, you have to be honest about who you are as a person and anytime you do that, when you put yourself out there, there’s that element of vulnerability because you don’t know how somebody else will respond to that. Everybody has a certain level of facade that they put up. Not necessarily fake, but who they are to everybody else…like you don’t always engage in the most personal discussions with everybody. So any kind of deep conversation with a friend or a romantic partner.  

6. What was your proudest moment?

I’ll tell this story because it’s the first one that pops into my head. Back in junior year of high school, I was in physics and we were learning about the kinematic equation, so properties of motion and how to calculate for different things. The challenge from our physics teacher for this lab was to get a marble into a cup. So basically, you’d set up a ramp at the end of a lab table and send a marble down it and you would set up a desk right underneath so it only had a short distance to fall. We had a speed gate at the bottom of the ramp that would tell up how fast the marble was going when it came off the ramp. So you would record where it landed on the desk and measure that from the end of the ramp. The teacher pulled the desk away and said “Ok now set up this cup where you think the marble is going to land,” which we had to figure out with these equations we were using. Immediately I was like “Oh, I know what to do.” I just went off to the side and started going through all the equations while the rest of the class was still puzzling through everything. So I figured it out and I told my team “Guys, we need to put the cup here. This is where the marble is gunna land.” None of them had really contributed anything to it so they just went off my word. We sent the marble down and it landed right in the cup. I still remember the look on the teacher’s face! He was so surprised that we got that. Nobody else in the class got it in the cup. So that was the proudest moment of my high school physics career.

    The answer I thought of after that was actually finishing student teaching. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done and I wanted to quit most of the time. That was probably more influential on my life in the long run, like actually sticking with it instead of getting a marble in a cup using equations I don’t even remember anymore.

7. Who is your role model / hero and why?

Growing up it was always Steve Irwin. I loved animals when I was a kid….I don’t hate them now haha! I thought I was going to be a vet for a while when I was a kid….I mean I did take up hunting later on in life so I did kind of go in another direction….so now I love to eat animals….this is completely off topic! I loved watching his show, Crocodile Hunter was great! I always thought working at a zoo would be awesome and wrestling alligators. Actually as I’ve grown older and just gotten to know more of who he was as a person, it’s still a valid answer. He was such a genuine guy. You can see the legacy of who he was even in his kids today. Both of them seem like really great people. You know that person was a good dad. Both his kids want to follow in his steps. Both of them love and cherish their memories of him. Just a good genuine dude. I would still pick him as a role model today even though he’s dead.

    Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights as well. He’s so much of who I want to be as a man. His relationship with his wife, as portrayed in the show, is….they deal with a lot of difficult stuff and the way they always approach it with communication, being up front, and working through problems is like such a realistic portrayal in such a good way that you don’t usually see in TV. Normally the dad is such a douche. They make him intentionally a moron for funsies. He’s the coach of the high school football team so he doesn’t compromise on things that he knows to be wrong. He’s very strong with what he believes in and trying to maintain and do the right thing despite pressure from the town or from his players. He’s always willing to go above and beyond for his players. He’s the one they come to if they get into a tight spot. Even if they know he doesn’t approve of what they did, he’s always also the one they go to first because they know he’ll be the one to help them out. Someone like that is who I would like to be as a man, as a father, and wherever God brings me in the church, discipling people. That’s who I would like to be.

8. What is one life lesson you’d like to pass down to future generations?

I always feel like you can’t pass down life lessons. My parents, especially my dad, went through a lot growing up, so there was a lot of things my dad dealt with growing up that he never wanted his kids to have to deal with. In those ways, he was stricter on certain things or would try to direct us in certain things like “Hey you shouldn’t be doing this.” One of the frustrations he’s expressed a lot is how most of his kids didn’t really listen to him. He said “I was trying to save you these heartaches here because I know I went through that.” On some level, people have to learn for themselves. Parents or role models can impart specific lessons or wisdom, but at the end of the day I find the most valuable lessons we learn in life are those we have to learn ourselves and experience through our own choices. That was one of the reasons I felt I had to move out of my parent’s. In order to have those life experiences and learn those lessons. My parents got married early, had a kid, had no money, they bought a crappy run down house and struggled for years and years. I’m sure they would love to save me from that. I definitely don’t have that experience now, but even moving out and taking steps that are more risky and forcing myself into situations like that.

    Something more broad, just go out and do things that challenge you. Especially things that scare you. Those are the things you should be going for and trying to do. At the end of the day, the only way you’re going to grow is by being challenged or by doing something that you were afraid of. So go out and experience those life lessons and learn your own.

9. What is your opinion of Jesus?

I don’t know how much of it is opinion based versus fact based. My opinion of who Jesus is ultimately shouldn’t matter. What matters is who he actually is. I feel like my opinion gets in the way a lot of the time. I feel like we tend to create a more palatable version of God. We like to pick and choose character traits or aspects of who he is. We make him smaller than he is and more manageable. When ultimately, who he is is who he is. My relationship with him is based entirely off of him. This is who he is and he loves me. I’m just in a position of being constantly blow away like, who am I? I’m nobody. Why would the God of everything love me? He’s my savior. He’s my friend. Those are facts, they’re not opinions. Ultimately, he should be everything. He should be number one in my life, but a lot of times he’s not. I put other things first and always end up regretting it. That’s who he is. Someone who’s constantly patient, constantly loving, even though I don’t deserve it.
