Key Point from Group Call 004:

  • Charles: “When it comes to sales people, if you’re not paying them for what you want to accomplish, you will never get it. I don’t care if you give them a million dollars a day, if they’re not incentivized to get something more, they’re not going to perform the way they could. That’s a salesperson.”
