When Opportunity Knocks Open the Door

9 January 2013 By LA Leave a Comment

open_doorNew direct sales consultants often ask how to approach people about their business opportunity or products. They tend to either say absolutely nothing, out of fear of rejection – or they come off like a bull in a china shop and approach the subject way too forcefully.

When the doctor entered the room he again apologized. Here is how the conversation went:

MD:   Again, I am terribly sorry for keeping you waiting. I hope this isn’t causing you trouble at work.

Me: I’m the boss, so I can be flexible.

MD: The boss? Oh! What do you do?

Me: I have a candle business. [Read more…] about When Opportunity Knocks Open the Door
