205: Bob Burg KNOWS lifelong learning, loyalty, leadership & how to give and receive

After listening to this very personal episode, you will KNOW more about the importance of, not just finding, but understanding joy.

For more than 30 years, Bob Burg has been successfully showing entrepreneurs, leaders, and sales professionals how to build relationships, communicate their value, and accelerate their business growth.

Although for years he was best known for his sales classic, "Endless Referrals," it's his business parable, "The Go-Giver," co-authored with John David Mann, that has created a worldwide movement.

While part of a four-book series, "The Go-Giver" itself has sold well over a million copies and been translated into 30 languages. It was rated #10 on Inc. Magazine's list of The Most Motivational Books Ever Written, and was on HubSpot's 20 Most Highly Rated Sales Books of All Time.

Bob is creator of The Go-Giver Academy online learning portal featuring The Go-Giver® Success Vault, which includes all of his online courses as well as additional business-building resources. He also publishes the very popular Daily Impact email. Both of these can be accessed at his website, which is www.burg.com

Bob is an advocate, supporter, and defender of the Free Enterprise system, believing that the amount of money one makes is directly proportional to how many people they serve.
He is also an unapologetic animal fanatic and serves as part of a South Florida rescue, foster, and adoption organization.
