Today Gina is excited to welcome back the incredible Liz Wendling, business consultant, sales coach, and founder of The Sales Clinic. She dives right into the topic of breaking bad sales habits and the importance of acknowledging and addressing them head-on. If you don\\u2019t acknowledge your bad habits and work to break them, the result is usually doubling and tripling down and as Liz says, you get really good at being crappy.\\xa0
