Its that magical time of the week again folks when we get to hang out via The Sales Playbook Podcast and today we’re tackling a tough topic.

Is Twitter A Waste Of Time For Sales People?

I’ll go ahead and spill the beans and tell you that I’m weighing in on this one with both a Yes and all caps NO and if I might upgrade that . . .

A Ridiculously large all Caps NO!

I'll provide you with several, real world examples of how sales people are kicking ass and taking names in the b2b space oh and I'm not talking about what "social media experts" are doing . . . I'm talking about sales reps in industries like printing, software sales, merchant services, consulting, accounting to name just a few.

Resources mentioned during this podcast . . .

The Sales Playbook Podcast is a winner

by stephenlahey

I've been selling for decades, and I don't waste my time with anything that isn't fresh and practical. I've never met Paul Castain, but his Sales Playbook Podcast is a winner. Maybe it's time for me to give him a call.

Monday is the last day you can enroll in Castain’s Sales School. Please click here for all the details!
