Shownotes
In today’s episode, we’re discussing sales—but in a different way than we have covered previously on the podcast.
I have spoken often about why you should know how to sell and why selling is a critical skill for every leader and businessperson, but this episode is all about the structure behind an effective salesperson.
My guest is Douglas Cole, author of the new book The Sales MBA. We’ll dive into the traits of a successful salesperson and what skills today’s salesperson needs.
