β€” SAMPLE EMAIL TO EXPENSE THE COURSE

Β 

They currently offer a course that includes video instruction, group Q&A and One-on-One coaching. I'm committed to my own personal development and

would like your help in expensing the course.

Β 

It would pay for itself if I closed only one new deal of $X value.

Please let me know by Friday if I can move forward with this 1 year course.

Thanks,

ME

Hey, before we get into this interview, I want to just want to congratulate everybody

0:05.2

who's listening to a sales podcast and doesn't even have to be mine, congratulations.

0:11.4

I was doing some research and some math this week trying to understand how many sales
