Ivan Misner“Elias and Shanto have brought referrals into the 21st Century, showing you how to … capitalize on the key moments that will bring you success in a busy, fast-paced world. This is a must read!”
Gerhard Gschwandtner“This process is destined to expand the traditional division of the sales team into hunters and farmers by adding a new category: the trapper.”
