"I want to acknowledge the work of Cathy Rempel for the great Sales Mentoring program over the last few months. The mentoring, coupled with the training, has made me feel much more confident about what it is I say to the CEO of a company as I'm headed out to a prospect. Just today I met with the CEO of a small manufacturing firm who definitely projected that he didn't need any services from me, and couldn't afford them if he did. By using the probing and reflection techniques Cathy helped us with, I had a list of several services that the CEO wanted me to follow up with him about. Thank you again to Cathy for her wonderful coaching and training. I know it will make a difference in how the next year progresses."
