Recently though, things have been difficult with the business. The wife handles all of the sales responsibilities and is on the road for an important client meeting. She really needs to make a sale to this customer or she and her husband may have to start dipping into their kids’ college savings accounts. She has been chasing this client for several years and finally has gotten a meeting. She’s nervous but her husband is optimistic. Before she left, her husband told her how much he believes in her and knows she’ll do great and secure the contract.
