Guesting on “Sales & Cigars”

Walter Crosby does an amazing job preparing and guiding his guests through extremely relevant and topical conversations that the audience will bookmark for all time reference points. Walter was also a guest on my podcast, and he is equally talented as a guest as he is as a host.

James I. Bond ,

Fun and valuable content!!!

I’ve been listening to Sales and Cigars and have found it awesome! Walter's choice of topics and guests make his podcasts relevant and fun. Outstanding, and valuable on so many levels!

ZackLemear ,

Really loved how he works with the guests

Great show, and really liked how he is able to be nimble with the guests if other topics pop up he can adjust and pivot on the fly, to not only keep it on point but allow the guest to be seen and heard in different ways.
