I Want to Be in Sales When I Grow Up! Is the title of the book John Barrows wrote to teach kids that sales is a legitimate profession\\u2014and one to be proud of. I read my boys this book, and they finally understand what I do. It forged a new connection that we\\u2019ve never had before. Not only does it serve an amazing educational purpose\\u2014but John\\u2019s book gives back. 100% of the profits go to the World Wildlife Fund to help them save animals. What other purpose does John hope this book serves? Will he be writing more? What\\u2019s the next step in his journey? Listen to this episode of Negotiations Ninja to learn more!
