I love sports, and as a sales and leadership expert, I find there are a lot of lessons on the field that apply to sales. As a Yankees fan, one player in particular stands out to me, and it’s not Mickey Mantle —one of the Yankees’ most revered players of all time.

Not all of us are blessed with such raw talent, but we all have the potential to achieve greatness the way Don Mattingly did.

Assumptions can have a profound effect on productivity, fun, fulfillment, and IMPACT. As a sales and leadership expert, I have found that this impact is a negative one that robs us of valuable time.
Everyone wants to make an IMPACT to dramatically increase their sales. By understanding and executing the elements involved in creating IMPACT, you can dramatically increase your sales in a short period of time! As a sales and leadership expert, I’ve created a formula that will show you how you can create IMPACT and dramatically increase your sales!
As a sales and leadership expert I’ve learned there are three critical things a CEO must do on a daily basis:
Do you know that sometimes you have to go slow to go fast? Recently, I installed a new productivity software program. And like many of you, I figured I knew immediately what I had to do, so I didn’t bother reading the instructions. After two painful hours of trying to get the software to work…
