I just returned from a 15-day cycling trip through Tuscany. Along with incredible views, delicious food, and fantastic Brunello wines, one fact really stood out. There were four people in our group between 69 and 75 years of age. We rode 50 miles each day including some big hills. (Those medieval planners liked hilltop cities). I was impressed not only by these cyclists' physical fitness, but by their competitive drive. They always wanted to beat us "youngsters" up the hill. They often did.

Competition in business can be just as surprising. Sometimes, it comes from unexpected places. To sharpen your skills with the latest techniques for outsmarting the competition, join us at the November seminar described below.

Good Selling,
