"This week, I had the pleasure to talk to local Greenville legend, John Sterling. Not only did John play basketball against Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson during his years at The Citadel, but he also built software startup Datastream into a publicly-traded company that sold for over $200 million. As the VP of Sales, he trained over 150 sales reps, many of whom went on to be 6- and 7-figure commission earners. Today, we're talking about his career, the lessons he's learned, and his new book, Sales for Noobs—an incredible resource for any young person who wants to make a living in sales the right way.
