ESSENTIAL SALES TASKS WE SHOULD DO, BUT OFTEN DON’T

In this podcast, John Golden talks to Leigh Ashton about sales team motivation:

It happens to all of us. We know the things that we should be doing, but neglect to actually do them. The same is true for salespeople. Essential tasks that are important for overall sales generation often get pushed to the wayside. “Sometimes salespeople know how to do something, but they just don’t do it!,” said Leigh Ashton, who is interviewed by John Golden.
