I had also previously reprinted an article by Dan Kennedy that basically agreed with us.

    I am listening to the six reasons sales contest do not work. I am enjoying the key points.

    I would like to talk with you about how communication styles play an important part of how sales people can recognize a style, shift and respond effectively. I have trained, spoken, and coached on styles for many years.

    This would be a great addition to your business.

    Look forward to speaking with you soon.
