Why Deadlines Work (and the psychology behind them)

It’s after midnight and I’m not preparing for next week’s meeting. I’ll have time later for that.

Creating a Compelling (and Kick-Ass) Digital Presence

So, you meet someone at a happy hour, you’re killing it at small talk, making a real connection (great job networking by the way), talking about your job and what you do. Maybe you mention how you’re looking to make a change soon because you’re ready to move on from your current position.

How I Found Sales

Who am I? What do I do and why am I qualified to speak about sales? How did I get started in sales? What do I actually do? Great questions. In fact, I get these questions so often, I decided to record my answers and start a blog.
