3. My wife is REALY GOOD at putting on make-up
4. Some people were never supposed to be business owners some how they still are
5. Giving FREE SAMPLES does absolutely no good for wholesalers charge at least $0.50 for anything
6. There is a new support group for smokers similar to AA that helps smokers and nonsmokers alike and it is sponsored by Barns Jewish Hospital
7. In sales if you can touch your customer on the shoulder, hands, or arm in an appropriate way do so, touch is one of the biggest factors to opening up a relationship and building trust
8. Repeat sales are almost as tough to get as the first one especially because they know what your product or service does its best to lock them into a long term agreement.
