QUOTES

Rishad: "I do not believe that we are gonna be at a place where there isn't gonna be some sort of worry about COVID for another year or two. Which means that people are not gonna go out of their way to have it easy to come inside the office."

Rishad: "You don't have to be there in person, but you need to be available. When they want you, you better be there. The worst thing, as you know, is looking for a telephone number in a website. Even worse than that, is your salesperson is missing in action when you want to reach them."

Rishad: "Build a case for the exact opposite of what you think is true. Put your sales thoughts together and then what you basically do is decide why you're full of s***. Poke holes. Because whoever you're selling against will be doing exactly that."
