/in , , , , /by

In this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, Bill and Bryan take a note from a client in the Personal Brand Makeover Course, and work through his personal story.

Bill and Bryan give you a handful of tips and improvement points on what he sent in and hopefully you can use some of these to improve your own story.
