In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Kate Volman interviews award-winning author, speaker and entrepreneur Tim S. Marshall. Marshall, who is perhaps best known as a salesmen, gives some tips you can use to improve your own technique and make more sales for your business.

For example, Marshall says that you shouldn't consider a sale solely a transaction -- in fact, Marshall says that often, the best sales don't involve contracts or transactions.

Then, they can open doors for you not only within their own business, but with their friends and colleagues, as well.
