3 JAN 2018 · Sales is that simple, it isn't that complex. You have a product or service and someone wants it. That's as simple as sales is. If you think about it, you walk into a grocery store and they sell things to you all the time. You walk out, but you don't know you've been sold, right? So sales is very simple. But what becomes complex is once you throw humans into it and our emotions, so our emotions lead us and tell us so many different things and there's perceived most of the time, like we're afraid someone's not going to like us because maybe we don't speak, write or say the right thing. Maybe we get embarrassed. Our mind isn't open, so now we do screw up even more, or say that something bad happens. The emotions of what happens on both buyer and seller are the ones that can make it complex. https://www.amazon.com/Sales-Its-That-Simple-Dave-Slain/dp/158736901X/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=bswithbob-20

10 JAN 2018 · Talked about Social Entrepreneurship and Recycling with Brian Tippetts. First of all, most of us don’t think about making money when looking at a recycled product, the product is clearly a resource that has value. Just look at and you just innately know that.

31 JAN 2018 · What Justin Loeber says about Communication, "it's practically the be-all and end-all of everything we do in life. If you think about it, people get all tied up in a bad pass or an email and it's not real. If you talk to the person, all of the nuances that you think were negative could actually be positive because when you talk with people, you actually hear the tone and the passion in which that person is communicating with you.
