It is also well known that we are able to sell to people, with a personality type similar to our own. This means that we are only effective with selling to 25 % of the world’s population.

When we learn to become the chameleon in the room, where we can engage our customers, according to their personality type, thinking style and decision making process, we increase our ability to sell by 300 %.
