Episode Highlights
"What people tell me is how I listen and ask thought-provoking questions... I want John to sound like John and Richard to sound like Richard." - Richard Harris
"Sales is service, solving problems, and making sure people are happy... Sales is something you do for them, not to them." - John Rankins
"My first foray into a real B2B world was selling classified ads... I realized I was never the best salesperson, but I loved teaching others how to sell." - Richard Harris
"Nobody cares about you, your company, your product, your service. Nobody cares. So let's just get that out of the way right now. They only care about what's in it for them. Once you understand that and listen, you'll be great at sales when you're good at service." - Richard Harris
"That's when I find people lose the plot. And when they sound scripted, they create doubt. And when in doubt, they're out." - John Rankins
