DESCRIPTION
Statistics show that the most dangerous competitor you face is the status quo — it’s your prospects deciding to do nothing. If you want to grow your business, you’ll need to challenge your customers to do something different. And you need to turn more opportunities from "no decision" into decisions that favor you. The best way to do this is to establish the buying vision in the first place.
