Episode Synopsis

I took a sales ability test, and this sales test revealed my #1 weakness. The results showed that in a sales context, I have a tendency to believe that talking is more important than asking good questions. In this unique episode, sales expert Mike Irving, founder of Advanced Business Abilities, analyzes my live test results, breaking down my strengths (like being a "Hunter") and my opportunities for growth (like "Discernment" ). We explore why everyone is in sales, whether they know it or not, and how understanding your personal traits can make you a more effective communicator.
