About the Episode
LifeBlood: We talked about Ambrose’s experiences growing up all over the world, what it’s like to have an English accent while living in Australia, the knowledge gained over a 20 year career in sales, and the value of confidence.
The two primary reasons sales people fail to reach their potential and how to address and overcome them. Why focusing on the customer and the value you’re delivering is the starting point to a successful sales interview, how to seek understanding first, then offer solutions, and why it’s selfish to do anything other than that.
Why the Wolf of Wall Street is a lousy role model and how to do business the correct way, the importance of having an organized sales process and the value of a good question with Ambrose Blowfield, one of Australia’s top sales trainers and speakers, and author of the book Shut Up to Sell.
Listen to learn why it’s possible to teach an old dog new tricks and why we need to be lifelong learners!
