In addition, we explore the training she received for the position as well as some of the resources she has in her toolbox. Something exciting about this conversation is that she was promoted the morning of this recording. She was super excited, as she should have been. At the end of the conversation, we review some of her tips for successful sales. This is another episode that was recorded at the IA&amp;amp;B Futures conference last fall. We\u2019ve had several other episodes from the conference. If you\u2019ve missed them, check out episodes 15 , 16, 18 and 20. They are all great conversations! If you didn\u2019t attend that conference, or if you didn\u2019t know about it, mark your calendar for October 8-9 of 2019. You can get more details on the IA&amp;amp;B website and we\u2019ll provide a link in the show notes of the businessofinsurance.com website as well.
