    Put Yourself In Your Prospect's Shoes
    You've had a few good meetings with a prospect. You've successfully overcome their objections. Before you close the deal, you must ask yourself a very important question.Should you do business with the prospect? Your answer should not be automatic. Before yo

I like you and you're a good person...) Give 100% of your focus to whomever you're
