Do you use a framework? Do you steamroll your prospects with a script? Are your ears trained to pick out the pain points or opportunities in their responses, and do you jump on them at the first opportunity? If so, you may be in danger of acting too quickly and are jeopardizing your chances of closing the deal.</p><p>In this episode of INSIDE Inside Sales, Darryl speaks with Randy Riemersma, the highly respected and expert sales trainer, who is also President of Span the Chasm.
