Sales Guru Debbie Mrazek Visits CDA to Discuss How to Sell Brand You
Saturday, December 1, 2007 — 10:00 am to 12:00 noon at CDA Offices. Open to the public at no cost.
Garland, Texas, November 20, 2007 . . . CDA is excited to present Debbie Mrazek, a speaker, motivator, sales guru and president of The Sales Company, www.the-sales-company.com. CDA President Helen Harkness says, “I tell my clients that they have to be responsible for marketing ‘Brand You’ and Debbie Mrazek will be here to teach us all how to sell ourselves better.”
Mrazek says, "You don't have to be great to get started, but you do have to get started to be great." Learn how to sell your services and yourself for profit as Debbie Mrazek shares her time-tested secrets to boost sales, excite customers and increase profits.
“For example, what do smart companies do when experts begin talking about a recession?” asks Mrazek. “They begin planning today for what may come (and what may never come) many months, and possibly years, later.” She says that smart companies act sooner than later. This type of planning applies to individuals as well.
Debbie knows her craft and combines it with solid business knowledge. This dynamic combination allows her to offer keen insight and to pinpoint gaps in personal and sales performance. Debbie's business savvy appeals to entrepreneurs and Fortune 50 CEOs. Her down-to-earth approach hits a home run with entrepreneurs and front-line salespeople.
