VICTOR\'S FINAL TIP TO EMERGING SALES LEADERS:\\xa0"First, if you listen to the client you can\'t lose. A lot of people do not hear the pain points, a lot of people do not pay attention to the client, they\'re so busy selling their product they\'re not listening to the client. The client has a need, find that need out. The client has pain, find that pain point and cure it. And second, you do nothing alone. Sales is a team sport. "Do not go out alone, do not pitch alone because you need somebody observing while you\'re working and you need somebody working while you\'re observing."
