Bryan talks about a sales deal where his client took a different approach–and created a long term partner. PLUS, that client avoided the ‘commodity element’ of most traditional customers where they put pressure on you for reduced price.

**If you’re a sales manager, this is a great topic for your next sales meeting.

Terry introduces our listeners to some rather deep subject matter, including a discussion around self-esteem, the comfort zones we’re all in and a tip on how to know what to work on in your life.

Our work with sales teams and sales people always revolves around the mental perspective that we have. That mental stance influences our actions and our results.

As we head into 2012, we all should look in the mirror and do what Terry recommends…  We’ll all grow enormously from it.
