Top 3 Takeaways From This Value-Packed Conversation
- You need to be someone special in the eyes of customers and prospects. Do you present yourself as someone special? These items require you to be focused, but when you do it, your personal brand will soar
- You owe it to yourself, your customers, and the world to SHOW UP
- Just like the title of the show says, who you are is more important than what you sell. As Clint says, “The sooner you understand how life works, the quicker you’ll stop wasting time trying to sell quality products…and instead, raise your status in the eyes of your customers and prospects. That’s way better and more important than having the highest quality product.”
