Ep 024 The Power Of Reframing: Uncovering The Hidden Salesperson

When a liberal arts major sits down and thinks about their future career, very seldom does it include a future in sales. But sales isn’t like it used to be — the typical salesperson today is also quite often an unintentional salesperson.

We speak with Mike Fisher, long-time Master Facilitator for Integrity Solutions and Chief Sales Officer at Sales Bullpen, about defining what a salesperson really is, how a mindset shift can change the public opinion (as well as their own), and how sales leaders need to look at their team.
