Quotes:
- Paul Avins: "When we start out, we sell the way that we feel comfortable selling rather than the way necessarily people wanna buy. Understanding different buying energies is crucial."
- Paul Avins: "One of the biggest mistakes people make with salespeople is they don't onboard them very well. They spend all this time and money hiring and then just expect them to impress without any proper training."
- David Angel: "Most business owners sell the way they like to buy, not based on the way their clients would like to buy. Adjusting to the client's buying preferences is key to improving sales."
- David Angel: "Sales isn't an eroding skill. Like going to the gym to maintain muscles, continuous training is essential to keep sales skills sharp and effective."
