It’s All About The Customer

While reading an interesting little book called “Knock Your Socks Off Prospecting” by William “Skip” Miller and Ron Zemke, it dawned on me that cold calling is very much like having a website and doing everything possible to entice people to further explore the site and ultimately buy your service or product.

Time and time again, the old saying – “It’s all about the customer” has its application here more than ever.
