Description

What does it mean to be a “go giver?” Former radio and T.V. news broadcaster, highly sought-after speaker, and the author of the book Endless Referrals, as well as co-author of the bestselling book The Go-Giver, Bob Burg joins me on the show today to share his insight into the sales and marketing challenges that many entrepreneurs face today. Bob shares his story on how his career transformed from working in the newsrooms of radio and television studios to becoming a top-producing sales person in his industry.

He shares the trials and tribulations he has faced throughout his earlier years as a sales associate, and how he leveraged the experience of others to become a better salesman. Bob strongly believes in the 5 Laws of Success and explains why it’s more important for entrepreneurs to focus on the value they provide to their clients instead of the financial gain they can receive from making the sale. His insight, knowledge, and expertise in the sales industry has helped countless entrepreneurs improve their sales and marketing strategy while positively impacting their bottom-line.
