| 0:00.0 | The hard part about interviewing great experience salespeople is that sometimes they don't know |
| 0:08.7 | what they're doing differently. And they tend to boil it down to a platitude. Oh, it's all about |
| 0:15.9 | relationships. It's hard work. The harder I work, the luckier I get. And those platitudes are nice, but as a listener, |
