Episode #518: It’s a Relief Party

In this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, Bill and Bryan begin the planning process for 2019, but they start in a completely different way than you’re used to.

The first step in preparation of next year is to take inventory of the beliefs that we might have in sales that hold us back. Then the next step is to begin to release those beliefs and in their place, insert beliefs that are more conducive to higher achievement.
