About this audiobook
Andrew Sobel offers a proven, 100-day plan for conquering fourteen tough client development challenges and growing your client base. He's encapsulated twenty-five years of unique research, including personal interviews with over 3000 top executives, into a practical roadmap for winning more new clients and growing your existing relationships.
