3 Incredibly Simple Ways To Improve Your Prospecting Skills

Posted March 6, 2016

Prospect Like A Pro October 2015 Banner - Copy

There’s an old saying that “Practice makes perfect” but as any trainer will tell you, that’s not entirely true because;

Practice makes permanent

 

Whatever you say and do consistently becomes habit and sometimes we say and do the wrong things, therefore, solidifying a limiting habit.

This week, I have 3, super simple ways for you to keep that from happening and as a bonus, undo some limiting phone habits that might have crept into your day to day!

Note: I originally offered this audio tip a while back, so this time I’m hoping you’ll actually take the action 🙂 Also, at the end of this audio lesson, I mention a free sparring session, unfortunately, the deadline passed on that offer. You know what they say happens when you snooze, right?
