Sell the go-giver way by shifting your focus from getting to giving!This week on YAP we’re chatting with Bob Burg, best-selling author, motivational speaker, and sales guru. For over 30 years, Bob has successfully shown entrepreneurs and sales professionals how to communicate their value and accelerate their referral business.
