Have you ever said “no” to a client and walked away from a deal? Maybe you knew that your services weren’t a good fit for their pain, or that they weren’t ready to hear the solutions you presented.

In this episode we’re joined by founder and host of SalesTuners, Jim Brown. As a sales coach who specializes in every stage of the sales pipeline, Jim is an expert in client relations.
