It’s Not JUST Anything

I’m going to be just a little late I just want to pick your brain I’m just following up on an email I sent to you. Just. Frankly, the word makes me uncomfortable mostly because of what it is intended to do namely “minimize” the impact of the question or statement to which it is […]

Why Sales Training Is More Important Than Ever

If you’re a business owner I don’t have to tell you that business is tough.
