Everyone has a say, about any  topic they want to comment on.<\/p>\n<p>  Now, this is a fantastic concept, isn&#8217;t it? On previous posts, I&#8217;ve mentioned  the Shortest course on selling, which is &#8211; Ask Questions and Listen!<br \/>  How about joining the two concepts:<\/p>\n<p>  Make <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sales\" title=\"Sales\">sales<\/a>  presentation 2.0! instead of the old 1.0 one sided, lecture type beautifully  designed PowerPoint presentations, let&#8217;s consider Sales 2.0 style White-Board  presentation:<\/p>\n<p>  A list of questions, and topics of discussion, leading a two-way conversation  between seller and prospect. The Seller is in control, leading the conversation  topic, and the prospect have control, making sure he understand the product or  service offered to him\/her.<\/p>\n<p>  I think this is time to rethink old truths, and add the 2.0 dimension to our  sales conversations.<\/p>\n<p>  Good bye sales presentation &#8211;
