In today’s #TogetherWeThrive​ podcast episode, Jon speaks with Elaine Atherton, a sales coach and podcaster who grew her direct sales business from an investment of £130 to £4,000,000.

Elaine says there is so much more to a sale than the final transaction, and with so many pieces to put together, it’s not always easy to see––that’s where she helps.
