Selling is a very human experience.
We’re all in sales now
Selling – not just objects, but ideas and techniques. We are persuading, negotiating, and pitching.
Who do the best in selling are, not extroverts, nor introverts, but those balanced people who share characteristics of both, the ambiverts.
The ABCs of Selling

Clarity is the capacity to help others see their situations in fresh and more revealing ways and to identify problems they didn’t realize they had.
