Surf and Sales
Everyone is looking for help in sales, yet so few are willing to give it unselfishly.
Richard Harris and Scott Leese have teamed up to bring their best advice from their own life experiences, real-world job experiences, and what they see sales reps and leaders do right and, equally, do wrong so you can be the best at your craft as well.
And yeah, there will be the occasional surf story.
