BBC Friday 25 July 2014 – Business Tools Roundtable, Part II – “Asking Questions”

Posted on by

BBC Friday 18 July 2014 – Business Tools Roundtable – “Question-based Selling”

This BBC Friday we will pick up the discussion from last week’s roundtable, “Closing The Deal, Getting Paid” with “Asking Good Questions” or “Question-based Selling.”

NOTES FROM LAST WEEK

Formulating good questions is important, whether in perspective client interviews, in troubleshooting client services/products and needs. Our own BBC Founding Regular, Bill Ruddick, will lead us in a great discussion on “QUESTIONS! QUESTIONS! QUESTIONS!  

Bring your questions, meta-questions, and meta-meta-questions-questions. Think about it. 

Be there, be free, be businesswise. For, in a sense, as serial entrepreneurs, we’re all business wise!

 So, invite your friends and associates to come join us for this exciting real-cloud event in real time and real space … and another delicious cup of BBC!
