Put on Your Helmet - 3 Tips for Selling in this Economy

Put on Your Helmet - 3 Tips for Selling in this Economy
Free Download - The Sales Force with Over Achievers Who Don't By Dave Kurlan
Name: Email:

What a great interview I had with Bill Murray, Founder and CEO of Winning Incorporated, Friday on my Meet the Sales Experts Radio Show! He was awesome. Here are some of the highlights from my conversation with Bill:

His mission is to abolish mediocrity. He tells us how in the interview...

He revealed a success story where the client, a bank, achieved a 400% increase in their asset base. Listen to hear what Bill did with the bank tellers!

Bill recalled his early days in sales which included getting a Jaguar for free - listen to hear how - and four transferable lessons from his very first job in sales.

He revealed the biggest obstacle he had to overcome in order to succeed - hear what it was like going from a leadership position with 2 personal assistants to a startup with zero income and....5 kids!

He had 3 great tips for helping you succeed in sales in this economy - the #2 tip was Put on Your Helmet! He explained how he named his company, and he provided this great tip: "Find something you're passionate about and attack it."

Bill also talked about applying a 50,000 foot strategy to the real world.
