Rather, it posits that a good salesperson is someone that challenges their customers. The book is based on studies of thousands of sales reps in varied industries; based on their findings, authors Dixon and Adamson categorize salespeople into five distinct types. However, only the “challenger” type is consistently highly successful. Pitch Anything: An Innovative Method for Presenting, Persuading, and Winning the Deal by Oren Klaff Maybe it isn’t the process of finding sales prospects…

October 5th at 12:48am
A vlog is the shortened, colloquial term for a video blog. In other words, vlogging is the act of producing and publishing frequent video content on an owned website or channel on a sharing platform. To put it simply, vlogging is posting videos online, and yet, it is much more than that. A vlog is an interactive video blog post about upcoming events or a vlogger’s daily life, as well as any other activity a vlogger thinks is worth mentioning through a video, instead of writing it on their blog.

START A SERVICE BUSINESS

Perhaps the biggest advantage is you become your own boss, take control of your future, and in effect become the master of your destiny. I’ve been self-employed for a number of years, and for me the lure of self-employment is the freedom and independence that calling the shots affords, which can be difficult to achieve when you work for others. Operating your own business also gives you the potential to earn more money, in some instances two, five or even ten times more than you’re currently earning. Every…
