Episode Notes My guests today are Saif Khan, Associate Sales Director at Cognism, and Michael Chan, Regional Sales Manager at Universal Lubricants Ltd, about having a career in sales. We discuss how they started their careers, the skills a good salesperson needs and what is the best approach to take when talking to a prospect. It is a fascinating chat that highlights the importance of empathy and respect. These qualities they both agree are essential for success in sales roles.
