Eventually, I found it and reintroduced it to the great outdoors.

It’s OK to double your price for PITA clients Every buyer isn’t your client. If buyers continue to make unreasonable demands and keep changing requests and deadlines—even after you’ve given them exactly what they need—then you’re dealing with PITA clients.

Eighty percent of sales managers say they coach their teams. Yet only 48% of salespeople say that they receive coaching, and only 13% find it helpful. * One reason sales teams have such a chaotic and disconnected view of whether coaching is confusion about what sales coaching is, and what it is not.
