191 GUEST: How to Use Improv to Be More Effective in Sales, with Gina Trimarco
We need to plan our sales messaging for sure, but much of our calls rely on reacting and responding. But many salespeople find it challenging to get off script, be spontaneous, and think on their feet.
Master improv instructor, Gina Trimarco discusses how to leverage the same techniques that actors and comedians use to improvise in the moment while on stage and still appear brilliant (and on script) to the audience.
