Selling is closing the deal.”—RM“If you don’t like sales, then you’re gonna have a problem running your own business.”—JS“Are you reacting to what’s coming in or are you going out and killing what you eat?”—RM“Sales mode is not synonymous with trying to close the deal. We’re talking about a potential engagement here, but either one of us can walk away from it.”—JS“Know that they (people who enter your sales stream) come in with ideas and expectations that have nothing to do with you…along with what they think might be possible with what they’ve seen of you.”—RM“I’m the type of “shopkeeper” that is perfectly happy to send somebody to the shop across the street if I think they’ll find what they want over there.”—JS“In the best consultative selling, your ego goes away. Your client feels that you are there for them to succeed.”—RM LINKSRochelle | Email List | LinkedIn | Twitter | InstagramJonathan | Daily List | Website  | Ditcherville | LinkedIn | Twitter
