Ten minutes with Shirley
01What do you attribute your success to?
Never give up even though it's challenging times now my client level has decreased but I just pivot and find a different way to market my business and I go a different way. So you gotta be flexible and know how to pivot and move in a different direction and just keep selling towards what you want to achieve.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
It's not gonna be always smooth sailing you know you're going to have your highs and lows but I would just give you advice to sell through the highs and lows.
