Description

If you’ve ever attended a networking event, whether a Chamber lunch, Association conference, or social after hours, you’ve likely met this person. They are the Deck Dealer. Their sole goal, it seems, is to rid themselves of as many of their own business cards as possible. Join Greg and Debby as they discuss why this process doesn’t work and how you can deal with them.
