Episode Quotes
"Here's the thing about strategy. It's going to create momentum for your sales team.”
“After a while, if a person is not doing what you want them to do, and the plan is sound and they're not gaining ground or hitting numbers, maybe they need to do something else.”
“This is the time of year where sales managers and sales individuals need to pump up the training somewhat. Find out what needs to be trained in our company and go for it. Don't wait.”
“When it comes to measuring things, nothing is easier to measure than sales.”
“January and February are great training months because they're already excited about being able to wash away the old numbers and start over.”
“Momentum is the key to business and sports. Nothing is more important than momentum and most companies never get it. They're too busy dealing with negative stuff.”
