Andy shares his costly mistake: targeting accountants and lawyers (methodical, detail-focused, slow decision makers) for three months with zero results. Then he switched to franchisors (similar personality to him; high D, fast-moving) and immediately got sales.Learn how to identify someone's personality style from their profile, job title, and messaging.
