In Bob’s 30 plus years as a successful sales professional, he experienced the same career frustrations, but found that if he treated his business like his garden, his business grew—and a happier, more relaxed salesman appeared. Bob teaches Marsha the secrets of his sales garden, helping her to recharge her career.The clever sales garden metaphor will change you the way you think about sales. By adhering to the easy, practical steps outlined in Sprout! , you, too, can beat career blues, increase your sales, and sustain yourself for the long term.
