7 Proven Successful Sales Strategies

On Episode 350 of The No Limits Selling Podcast, we have Connie Whitman. Connie is a sales coach and the author of the #1 International Best Selling Book - ESP, Easy Sales Process  

During her 20+ years in business, She's had the honor of working with very large organizations, including what became the #1 ranked bank in NJ by Money Magazine, to very small companies including solopreneurs, and she has found that a clear sales process, with a defined client journey, is the same in the principle regardless of size.

If it would be useful to you to have a conversation about creating a defined sales process to build a culture that supports business and revenue growth, at a corporate, entrepreneur, or small business level, Connie would be happy to spend 30 minutes with you to share any value she can.

This is a deep passion in her life and one of the ways she continues to feed that passion is by hosting a podcast called Changing the Sales Game. She's always looking for thoughtful, aligned, service-focused business owners and executives to interview and share with her community, the value of their thinking.
