5 Sales Onboarding Errors to Avoid

Sales and Marketing Management

Author: Greg Flynn Imagine a marathon runner starting a race without having trained or even stretched beforehand. Or a restaurant serving newly conceived meals that no one had sampled previously.

Yesterday I packed 300 books or one column of eight shelves of the infamous shelves in my office, the office you see in my YouTube videos.
