FRED'S TIP: "If you want to be successful in sales, you have to be known for something. Sales is hard, and that's why professional selling matters."

GINA'S TIP: "If people don't know your aspirations, they can't help you grow. You have to raise your hand."

DARRYL'S TIP: "Business is a contact sport. Every handshake, every meeting, every follow-up. That's on you."
