Very impressive. This is a great way to get a glimpse of what a young entrepreneur goes through in order to build a business empire! It proves the idea that there’s no harm in asking–the worst anyone can do is say no. You’ve shown the great things that can happen when the people say yes. Keep the episodes coming!

Thanks Andrea!
Right on about there being no harm in asking.

interesting approach…i feel like business owners would get annoyed with persistent sales people, but i think the way you use persistence by adding a touch of your own unique personality makes it work. very interesting!

JT, you’re right…they could get annoyed, but I think a salesperson needs to know the difference between persistence and annoyance. It is a ‘happy spot’ you have to find…Persistence is not a bad thing if carried out correctly.
