Can You Pass This Sales Quiz

As an entrepreneur you will certainly know the correct answers to many of these
time management (Self-management) questions.

But! But what if you don't know all the answers. And what if the answers you don't
know create obstacles for you that have a negative impact on your sales productivity
and even more importantly - your income.

Some people know diddly-squat about time management. And most people are too busy
to know what they don't know about the subject.

There are 86,400 seconds in every day - did you know that - invest a
few of them to see how well you're doing in the Time Management Department.

Answers to these questions are in my latest book, "57 Ways To Take Control
