The number one cause of failure in sales is “creative avoidance”. Salespeople are constantly torn between the support work required to fulfill their service to their customers and with going out and prospecting for new business.

This program focuses on sharing a unique combination of motivation and sales techniques to help your producers reach the next level.

- Be disciplined about controlling their activity and their attitudes
