What is the mission of your presentation?

The power of TRUST in your success

High trusters are not naive, but rather have an intelligence that permits them to distinguish between the trustworthy and the untrustworthy. The low trusters do not trust others because they do not have this capacity, and play it safe by saying no to everyone. Their social life is poorer. A certain degree of suspicion is healthy and wise. But when it forms part of our character, becomes our worldview and turns into muscular tension, then it becomes a hindrance. Source: The Power of… Continue

The Right Mindset for Cold Calling... Success, Rejection, Fear, the Numbers and Taking it Personal.

This is a topic that is near and dear to me because I believe in the "thought process" behind cold calling and using it as a tactic to create meaningful connections in selling environments. I am currently working on a book that details the key elements of cold calling success (Cold Closing, The Art of Making The Connection) so there will certainly be more to come on this topic; but for now... The Short, The Sweet and The Sour (My… Continue
