  • Faculty: Brent Long

    On this episode, Nick talks with Brent Long. Brett shares his journey and insights from the recent ISI retreat in Columbus. With a focus on faith-based sales and leadership, Brett discusses his life's mission, including managing the Long Haven property, releasing his first book on sales and faith, and engaging with Christian business owners. He emphasizes the importance of relying on God's guidance rather than one's own strength and highlights the powerful question from John chapter five that has shaped his approach to sales training. The discussion also explores the practical application of biblical wisdom in business, the fear of success, and the significance of maintaining 'saltiness' in life. The talk concludes with an emphasis on integrating faith into business practices and a heartfelt prayer. We are excited to share this episode and know that you will be blessed by this conversation. Stay Sharp!
