3 Key Takeaways

  • First things first: find sales people in ANY niche and glean as much knowledge from them as possible. Then read up on everything you can about sales success. 
  • After you’ve done due diligence with research, get out there and talk to the people who will make a difference; it’s not going to help to  cold call regular people on the street.
  • Utilize your skills and start building scar tissue to glean success from your business. Your education will come later in the process.
