UPDATE: Here's what Jim said when I asked if he had any concerns about the effectiveness of the
Soft Selling Sales Training program if he's not actually doing the training:
"There was a time when I didn't believe that anyone could teach Soft Selling as well as I could. Then I observed Ronnie teaching a multi-week small business class a few years ago. Week by week I was truly impressed with Ronnie's attitude and articulation and supportive tone. I honestly wished I had been as good as Ronnie was then. I have full faith in you now, Ronnie and am happy to pass the torch to a new generation."
That brought tears to my eyes when he said that, and even now as I am typing it. Thank you, Jim; I will do my best not to disappoint!
