An Interview With A Top Performer – From The Early 1900’s
Audio Podcast
Todd Caponi
Podcast Episode Description
The best podcasts give you access to top performers; salespeople, leaders & influencers, right? But, how about a top performer…from 100+ years ago?!?
This week I’ve got a special episode for you – where I (fake) interview Norval Hawkins (1867-1936), known as the greatest salesperson to ever work for Ford, whom Henry Ford himself referred to as “my million dollar man”. Hawkin’s writing is profound, just thinking about things differently – but incredibly applicable to today.
So, in this interview, I play the role of podcast interviewer, and I play the role of Norval Hawkins, answering the questions using his own thoughts from ~ 100 years ago.
