Our guest expert this week is Matthew Pollard, author of The Introverts Edge: How The Quiet And Shy Can Outsell Anyone.

Sometimes people struggle in sales early because they feel shy and often assume correctly or incorrectly that they are an introvert. But even the most hardened sales professional can find themselves in a situation where they feel intimidated or outclassed.

Whether you are an extrovert or an introvert, Matthew has a sales process for you. He is an internationally-recognized consultant, speaker, blogger, author, mentor, coach, and serial entrepreneur with five multi-million dollar business success stories under his belt, all before the age of 30. He is the founder and CEO of Rapid Growth, LLC, dedicated to achieving maximum ROI for businesses of all sizes. Though his client list includes multiple Fortune 500 companies, his real passion is helping small business owners end the overwhelm, eliminate the stress and guesswork, and get on a clear path to Rapid Growth.
