Matthew Pollard wrote "The Introvert's Edge" to help the average introvert learn that their path to success will look different than an extrovert's. Systems and processes will allow introverts to succeed, excel, and dominate their market. Introverts can only do so well "winging it." In this episode of Negotiations Ninja, Matthew shares that when you focus on methodology and consistency, you end up the best in the business.
Matthew jokes that he was an introverted kid with no right being in sales. But he went on to become the #1 salesperson in his company. Since then, he's started his own business and has been responsible for five multi-million dollar success stories. Now he teaches the world how to obtain rapid growth, how to tell stories, and how to nail their messaging in their niche.
