To learn experiences of life, takes a lifetime. To experience things through someone else’s life, takes a phone call.” If Your Mouth is Moving, You’re Selling Something “If you’re not good in sales, you’re going to have a tough time running a business. Sales is not just putting a product in someones hand and getting a dollar. To meet someone and create enough value is a special relationship, but the amount of times that I have to sell to employees, vendors, etc… You have to be comfortable with being uncomfortable.” Ability to Adapt The market dictates what you should do. If you try to fight the market you’re going to have a hard time succeeding. Changing/persuading peoples thoughts and your ability to adapt will being you success.
